If it makes you feel any better, that particular Chanel bag has a lot of issues. The sequins fall out pretty easily - especially if you like to swoosh it & change the color a lot. It has a great immediate "Wow" factor that loses its appeal rather rapidly - especially when you keep thinking about how much you paid for the incredible shedding purse! Yikes!

I don't own this purse but had a friend who couldn't resist & brought it over for me to enjoy - we had sequins in our floor upon her departure. The only pro is that if she ever did get lost in a forest, she'd leave a glamorous trail - much chicer & less likely to be eaten.

The bag is still beyond gorgeous. I think your right about it losing it's appeal rapidly. I'd rather pay that for something more classic.

I liked the glittery look also. Someone had one on ebay once for about $2k but I talked myself out of it as it was not a practical choice just for some shiny sequins that I figured would be a nightmare to maintain. On my honeymoon in Hawaii I stopped by a boutique and found a no name sequined bag there for about $170 and snapped it up to fulfill my need for a blinged out hobo! There are better Chanels for the money.
