My Chanel affair started with my b-day gift from my mom, a J12 watch. That was a few years back when J12 first debuted I believe. I wasn’t into fashion at all and in fact I was still a university student, all I ever carry was my humongous north face backpack and A&F was all I wear lol

. I didn’t start to wear that J12 till I started working.

Then all of sudden I must have been abducted by fashion aliens and came back with hopeless addiction to the fashion world. Off I went into Louis Vuitton first but not too long before I discovered my true love and passion, that is with no doubt CHANEL and I never looked back. I started my Chanel collection in 2007 and my first purchase was the m/l classic lambskin flap with SHW. Like many other lovely ladies on the forum, the addiction became worse and worse and next thing you know there are 10+ bags in your closet. I always secretly admire all of your fabulous collections but never got a chance to take a family picture of my own. So here I go, I may have gone into a little bit photo shooting madness.

I tried to take pictures with all the style numbers just so it might provide some references.

So without further ado, here are all my babies (I actually realized that I left one very important piece, which was a gift from my SA, will try to take a picture when I am home tonight lol)

First off, my 33mm white plain J12, gift from my sweet Mom.

Since we are on the jewelry subject, may as well continue on with all my costume jewelries:

Wow! I'm speechless! Your costume jewelry pieces, handbags, and J12 are beyond fabulous!

jofoliage · Jan 28th, 2009, 03:48 PM

I forgot that I had also taken a 2.55 chain comparison picture, don't you just adore the 2.55 chain (except sometimes it can be deadly if you wear it for a day shopping lol)

Now on to the seasonal ones. I have to say that I am more of a classic girl therefore not that many seasonal pieces to show you ladies.
