Fall in love with this instead of the Lady Braid, and I bought...

petals12 · Sep 10th, 2007, 08:24 PM

So I went to NM of Stanford today to check out the Lady Braid that I have been waiting for. But once I stepped into the Chanel room, I saw this Chanel bag that I haven't seem before and it sure was eye-catching...at least to me...lol. Anyway, I used my cell phone and took a pic of it to show you all...

The size is pretty big, at least it is bigger than the Bubble Quilted Bowler. I think it is very unique with the quilted on the side of the bag and those pockets reminds me of the Ritz. It costs around $2700 or so..don't quite remember now that I got home.

Anyway, I didn't bring the Lady Braid Bowler home with me since the shoulder strap is too short to use as a shoulder bag, and not to mention that I already have the Bubble Quilted Bowler that some how has the similar design. But, I have this bag(pic) put on hold for me till Wed., so that I can think hard and decide if I should bring it home or not. Oh, btw, the SA told me that this bag's line is call Perfect Day...anyone here heard about this line?

Oh, I almost forgot...I also bought a camellia wallet today, here is a pic of it...

I saw that bag in black at Saks during the gift card event! I thought it was kinda heavy and bulky, but maybe when you take the stuffing out that goes away. Post modeling pics!! I bet I'm going to kick myself for not getting it now!!!

OnyxBear · Sep 10th, 2007, 08:28 PM

That's a great bag but I've never heard of Perfect Day either. I think I might have seen that bag or a similar one posted before, maybe from one of the trunk shows. I really like the unique quilting on the side as well.
Congrats on your wallet. It's beautiful!

omgsweet · Sep 10th, 2007, 08:29 PM

Oh, I just re-read your post. I thought you bought it. If you do, post modeling pics!! What color is this one?

No, I didn't get it today, but have it on hold for me till Wed.. This year I have bought more than I should already. Actually, I am on a ban...well, it hasn't work very well for me yet...lol. BTW the color of this bag is black, and is the yummy lambskin.

I am not loving the bag. I thought I would when I saw it in photos, but IRL didn't love it.

piperlu · Sep 10th, 2007, 08:54 PM

Nice bag. I haven't seen it IRL though.

OMG, the Camelia wallet comes in long. Why did I have to see that? You know I'll have to get that one now.

Congrats!!!

PS Can you post interior pics of that beautiful wallet, please?

Noegirl05 · Sep 10th, 2007, 09:00 PM

My SA sent me pics of that bag a week or two ago... I like it a lot but hae yet to see it in person! I love love loe the wallet

luv4bags · Sep 10th, 2007, 09:11 PM

I saw this bag in the tan color, larger size and love it! I wish I could have seen the brown in the smaller size. I say go for it! The bag is pretty IMO!

DD101 · Sep 10th, 2007, 09:19 PM

Someone posted something about the Perfect Day, can't remember who or which thread. I think the bag looks too structured on top for me, otherwise it's nice. The leather looks really nice.

The camellia wallet is too cute, I love the embossing on it.

KMSNYC · Sep 10th, 2007, 09:22 PM

I saw that bag at the Saks on 57th st in NYC about 2 weeks ago. It comes in two sizes, medium and a large size, and in three colors: dark brown, black, and taupe. They were already out of most of their stock the day I was there, and the SA said it had only just come in very recently.

it's a beauty! Congrats if you decide to get it!

petals12 · Sep 10th, 2007, 09:48 PM

Thanks for all your compliments on my new wallet.

I will try to take a pic of the inside when I have the chance...hopefully soon.

KMSNYC, when I was in NM, I took out all the stuffings inside the bag and it feels a lot less bulky. Actually beside that one, I also comtemplating on getting the flap that is on your avatar

today. Sure wish I have more budget to play around with in day like this.

Mystiletto · Sep 10th, 2007, 09:55 PM

Thanks for sharing the pics. I love your new wallet

Purrrfect · Sep 10th, 2007, 09:58 PM

Yes, Congrats on the wallet - very nice!

Not so sure about the bag - the CC seem very low. But I am sure it is one of those things you have to see it IRL to appreciate.
