to you its ridiculous, to me a chanel bag is just a beautiful, desirable classic bag that i would buy if i had money spare. I must say i dont dream of them or anything but there are women out there who do obsess, collect and see tham as a passion. Its all relative. In life we all have passions. Books, bags, shoes, stuffed animals, trinkets whatever..
Its like my husband with his latest laptop, tv, phone, car navigation gadget (i mean seriously zzzzzzz) i dont understand it or his need to have the lastest updates/versions but it makes him happy so i'm happy for him.
Each to their own. We all have passions in life. Some material some not. Its easier not to judge. You dont have to understand... Just support it so people give you that good energy back on your endevours.
