Very nice! I love this color! :)

little vintage number - I am always asking to borrow this one...

Beige Clair Jumbo SHW. I know most prefer GHW for their beige clair, but I was and still am head-over-heels for it with silver hardware. It's clean, chic and I can easily wear it with gold or silver-toned jewelry. It's a neutral when I need it to be with summer colors or it pops in the winter with my darker winter clothing. It was also my first Chanel.

So absolutely no worries if that is the case. Nevertheless is always good to remember this is a virtual world and all is not always what it seems. Not that long ago a well known British newspaper send an undercover journalist to spy on TPF. check this out http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/ar...-chatroom.html though I have to warn the sensitive souls among you - you may find it distressing! The rest of us just grab some tissues as I was in tears from laughter when I read it! and please post photos of your BEST CHANEL BAG (most used) THE LEAST USED (the one that stays in the closet hugging the authenticity card) and of course THE BEST LOVED even if it is the least USED

That article is funny! I guess the English and Australia sense of humor is very similar.

my best chanel purchase is the olsen bag, it costs me more than it's retail price but it's so worth it.
i just love it so much

I am glad you took a picture of your bag. I just bought the same bag a few weeks ago and I love it so much. Sometimes I just take it out to stare at it. I adore the silver hardware as well.

May I ask how long have you bought it for, how is the shine of SHW holding? Your bag looks boutique condition!

It's in pristine condition! congrats!

My favorite is my beige jumbo caviar leather Jumbo WGH. Last one in Neiman Marcus special ordered when the Chanel boutique couldn't get it. Isn't she pretty?

Beautiful. I myself would never get a light-color bag as I'm deathly afraid of color transfer, but I oh-so-much admire all the beige bags I see around these parts.

My East/West flap I bought in 2009. I used my employee discount and got the best deal ever. I don't think I'll ever get a deal like again on Chanel bag.
