I have been wanting a Chanel bag for ages. But with the massive price increases of the last few years I'm realizing that I probably won't be getting my dream bag (medium classic flap, black caviar, silver hardware) anytime soon I'm considering a pre-owned bag, but even with that I am quite limited.
I've been thinking of maybe buying something to hold me over, a Gucci Marmont, a Miss Dior, maybe a YSL Sunset, but each time I find myself thinking that although I really like all of these bags, in my heart I know I would go right back to dreaming about a Chanel bag and feeling that the money could have been used towards a Chanel in the future.
Did anyone else go through this when saving for their first Chanel? And was there a bag that kept you satisfied until you were able to get your hands on what you really wanted? Is it worth buying another designer bag to use in the interim or should I stick with lower end bags until I can afford what I really want?
