CHANEL TPF members in the Philippines?

^^ It's hard to find cheap Chanel here. Even the cheapest sources understandably charge above retail. However, there are quite a few resellers and many will do layaway:) There are several reliable resellers on Multiply. MICO in Shangri La mall also resells (3rd floor near Rustan's), as does Tresor Makati.

You're from San Juan? I grew up there before I moved to Paranaque then back to SJ then finally here in the US!

Hello.. Is it cheaper to get Bbags in HK? I am currently in the hunt for the perfect black city but wasnt lucky enough to find one so I got myself a Chanel Cambon reporter for the meantime!

compared to resellers here, yes they're cheaper. not sure about the stocks, though. when i checked out the stores, they usually didn't have the bags i wanted. maybe it's better now.

I kinda noticed Chanel's making a strong showing with the younger set in showbiz. They have excellent taste!

regeens · May 12th, 2008, 08:18 PM

^Seriously? I'm a bit out of the loop with the showbiz chika (don't have TFC in Sydney

).

Who's wearing Chanel in Manila showbiz circles these days? I only know Ruffa Gutierrez does because I saw a clip of her in The Buzz recently (courtesy of You Tube)! LOL.

meyan · May 12th, 2008, 08:22 PM

I've seen a few of them in YES magazines... Ruffa Mae Quinto, Heart Evangelista, Angel Locsin (she wore one in an episode of Lobo recently), Ruffa Guittierez, and of course... How could one forget Gretchen Barretto? I've seen her daughter wear Chanel too...

regeens · May 12th, 2008, 08:36 PM

^What! Gretchen's daughter wears Chanel too!!!!

LOL. Well, the kid's got good taste.

scholastican · May 12th, 2008, 08:37 PM

Some very stylish young ones and the very moneyed erm, seasoned ones...Anne Curtis, Heart Evangelista, Bea Alonzo(only saw her use a flap on her teleserye, not even sure if it was the real deal...perfo double flap in front?), Claudine and Gretchen Barretto, Pops Fernandez, I think even Kris Aquino.

If for nothing else, style-watching makes subscribing to these channels worth the subscriber fees.
