i got my first chanel last summer, 21yrs old, as a gift from my boyfriend. i saw it at the chanel store and really wanted it... but it wasnt my first designer bag
I was 21, and it was a black caviar jumbo with silver hardware. I paid for it with one of my first real paychecks, it was moi satisfying. And now it's become tradition that I buy a new Chanel bag and a pair of Chanel ballet flats every year.
When I was younger I was all about Gucci and LV. I was so proud of my Gucci bags and wallets. Ah, the days when life was more simple, lol (kidding)
I bought my first Chanel bag last year in Paris, a black PST. I was 23. Before that I was in college and had to save alot, it was more Coach and then Louis. I was brought up by a single mother learning to work hard for the things in life and now that I am out on my own and have a good job, I appreciate how work pays off. I love my bags and take care of them.
