Seriously, I blame the unreasonable amount of alcohol consumed while in a foreign country, as one does, when beer cost less than water - what is up with that?!?!?!
A lady cannot be expected to make rationale decisions while under the influence due to the loss of brain cells (I believe I heard their screams of agony)...
But in all seriousness, 3 hours after the plane landed, I was at the boutique already.
A little long side story...
It was crazy busy and I was TOTALLY ignored. I asked for help by at least 3 SA's and they simply tells me that they're too busy. I asked if there's a line or at least some way to know when I am next and who can I anticipate to help me - to no avail and no answer.
So... I went to scope out the goods first on all 3 floors. Finally, after over 40 minutes of being ignored, I was NOT HAPPY - at this point, even the security guys realized that the sales people were ignoring me and told some of the SAs that they need to help me as I've been ignored.
I cornered an SA to asked for her help and she informed me that they're busy and that I should wait (same answers I got 40 minutes ago). I informed her that while I know she's undoubtedly busy, I do not see her actively helping anyone and that I've been there for a long time and that I was not provided any specific information as to when or who would help me which is unacceptable, and unprecedented at any Chanel boutiques I've been to. No one bother to even greet me nor say Hi - not. o.k. at a commission based boutique. Really, it's just rude - be it Chanel or a flea market vendor!
I would appreciate her help or I will be calling customer service while in the store so that I can get their help to understand what it takes to get some service in this particular boutique.
Finally she apologized and decided to help me - and the shopping begins! She's wonderful and just really my grumpiness is a result of her rude colleagues who outright ignored me (one of them that asked me to wait as next decided to go on a long break without saying a word to me, nor asking another SA to help/fill in, after she was done with her prior customer).
Now, the shopping begins...!
Given the recent shopping sprees on bags, I really didn't have anything I want from recent collection. So, I was very much looking to see if there are pretty accessories as those are often hard to encounter good stock (hit or miss depending on luck). I've been looking for a classic belt for a long time but haven't seen anything that is both understated but classic.
What am I to do when I come across the perfect one in my size?
I plan on wearing this with longer tops, cinch jackets, or dresses at the upper waist. It's the perfect thickness and the leather on this is just amazing and beautiful in real life despite the simple design, which is what I crave, and yet so classic Chanel. It's in silver hardware so I feel it's super versatile and a style that I would continue to love for a long long time.
despite me being a bad girl...I figure these are on my classic Chanel bucket list items so it's great to get it at a saving and before further price increases...
