Chloe's definitely not for everyone. It is hard to tell some fake Chloe's from real ones due to Chloe's lack of quality control. That said, I still have to say that nothing beats Chloe's scrumptuousness when the leather is yummy!

Thanks for the link. Very interesting. Good info Bbag girls!
This blogger seems to apparently have a problem with a lot of designers bags other than Balenciaga. Amazing dedication to her favorite bag. Good for her. :yes:

She says she likes BV (as do I), but she can't be too familiar with leather quality, if she can't tell the fake Betty from the real one (and I bet the Doughnut zip pulls are off, too!). :shrugs:

I do think she has a right to her opinion, though. :yes:

I adored Chloe when Phoebe was in full swing, about three years ago, but I can't say I've been as enamoured with Chloe, in the last couple of years. I can appreciate the bags since then, on others, but I have not really been tempted to buy (until very recently)...

Since then, I've been more attracted to other designers' accessories; like Tom Ford for YSL, Alexander McQueen, Roberto Cavalli, Bottega Veneta and Derek Lam.

TBH, I think Chloe's got a bit too dreary and school mam-ish in the last couple of seasons and that the clothes, even when more embellished, have lost much of their, subtle, sex appeal. I'm a bit of a rebel at heart and I want my accessories to reflect that! :biggrin:

I also lived through the mid '90s to early noughties, wearing seemingly endless, minimally styled clothes and accessories and I'm really not ready to revisit minimalism yet. I often dress fairly plainly and I want a bit of opulence and beauty in my accessories.

I do love my new Elfie, though and I really like the new Fanny clutch. :heart: :heart: :heart:

I so agree with you about that new fanny clutch. When I was in Chicago I saw many of the new seasons' bags except that one........I really wanted to see in IRL because the picture is adorable.

In the last few weeks I've been wanting a real "it" clutch and then you presented this Fanny bag and I knew it was the one.:hysteric:

^ I showed my BF the Fanny on NAP and he hated it (and not because of the name!)! :blink:

Mind you, he often hates things until he sees them in person and gets used to them. :yes:

I don't let that stop me! :lol:

LouiseyPeasey (creater of Atelier Naff) is a really sweet person and I think she writes pretty well. So what if she doesn't like Chole? I, for one, hate monogram LV and Gucci with a passion, so sue me!

She also kind of ditched (my) Coach, but it wasn't as bad. Heck, I'm giving up a lot of Coach for my love of Chloe'.

The site is great, my favorite article so far is the one on Spys. I love how she does pictures.

LP has done a great job of capturing details on the Balenciaga bags and has saved numerous TPFers from purchasing fake bags, I think she deserves our respect for that. Everyone has likes and dislikes on bags. I happen to like Chloe and Balenciaga but everyone has a right to their own opinions.

I wasn't trying to start hate on AtelierNaff, it was merely an alert and start on discussion - sort of like Chloe' news around the web. I'm loyal to our Chloe' board, so I post when I find things. :yes::nuts:

I was sort of expecting arguments against her points, actually. Like the obvious, hey my Paddy only weights 4 lbs with lock - lol - not 27. But that's too obvious.

:shrugs:
