The fall/winter 2009/2010 collection from Chanel is now available in Chanel boutiques. Channeling the winter months, Chanel brings in heavy materials, tweed, and a splash of color with the perfect green and pink.

The leather shoulder strap on the green and pink tweed bags is a departure from the classic chain strap, yet I find myself wanting to see the tweed bag with a chain strap rather than smooth leather strap (like the last photo below). My pick for Fall/Winter is the Chanel Extra Large Tweed Flap with the chain shoulder strap. The tweed is reminiscent of Chanel classic suits as is the quilted finish and chain strap. There is also the classical flap with interlaced ribbons which continues to bring dimension to the bag while offering a horizontal pattern rather than the expected diagonal. To view the collection visit Chanel online.

Omg, I am in love with the green tweed. The color reminds me of mint!

I'm not bothering with the newer Chanel since I think there are quality issues. Love the older Chanel though.

I really like the tweed, but im not sure how durable they would be to use

Fun to look at, but not something I would pay big $ for...

I would love to be able to stand next to someone wearing any one of these bags to compliment them.

Love the green and agree about the chain rather than leather strap.
