After yet another instance of saying that I wouldn't buy any more bags for the year (at least until after I've saved enough for my wedding next February), I found myself unable to resist another Chanel...
I had never considered the Diana before, but after seeing all of the reveal threads in the last few weeks, I couldn't get the bag out of my mind. I usually stick with caviar, but I think I was less concerned with buying a vintage lambskin bag, since it already has some scratches and flaws. If I end up scratching it up a little bit more, then no big deal!
So here's my (new to me) vintage Diana!!! She's in really great condition.
As a little reveal bonus, here's my (new to me) navy Hermes Constance circa 1973!! I bought this little treasure last September for close to 50% off the current retail price (!!), but felt that the strap was an awkward length. I ended up taking it into the Hermes store and they sent the bag to Paris to get a new strap put on (it's the longest one available for the Constance, at 110 cm). The process took awhile, but I finally got her back a month or so ago and I love it. I'm so glad I spent the few hundred extra dollars for the strap - I'll get so much more use out of the bag!
Thanks for letting me share!!!
