I am totally digging the Chanel black Grand shopping tote! Going tomorrow to get it before the price increase in Feb! :yahoo:
 
I was 19 when I got my first LV Speedy 30 from my parents for my birthday! I originally was going to go to Chanel (since theyre right next to each other basically - Bloor Street, in Toronto) to buy the Chanel necklace and earrings.. turns out they were sold out of them! SO we went to LV and I got the purse... the problem now is that I dont wear it much since its the white one and I am now 23 and tend to wear a lot of darker colors... too bad I didnt get the Chanel black bag... any one... it wouldve been my HG bag I know it!
