First up I'll be honest and say I'm not a fan of Chanel bags-I quite like the cocoon tote and the 255 but otherwise they are not my taste.
However it must be around 6 years ago I saw a bag I've never quite forgotten in the boutique
It was from the Paris-dallas collection and was a fringed saddle bag.
I found it quite breathtaking sort of rock biker but also chic.
I never brought it, would never buy it even now on the resale market unless I lucked out and got one at an insane price purely because
I know I wouldn't get the use from it because its such a statement bag.
But yes it really grabbed my attention and I still desire it the way I desire a chocolate eclair but wouldn't eat one!

Is it this one? I've seen it online before, and it really becomes embossed onto the mind -- I think you know what I mean. It's not one to forget. Such a unique bag, very special. It looks so well made too. Perhaps you will find it one day for a good price, just as a collector's piece! :yahoo:

Yes!!! Oh! I love it but like I love Johnny Depp-Really handsome but wouldn't ever see myself going out with him:lol:
 
From my collection, I think this is the most unique and beautiful piece. Tweed and bling are not everyone's cup of tea, but for me this is it! As for 2.55, I saw this on Chanel website. I would love to add this to my collection just to stare and admire. If only... :heart:

Hahahaha, you are so sweet. I see that, and I think that bag has a little Johnny feel to it. I'd wear it to my date with Johnny. But like you, it'll probably be just the one date, he's not very my cup of tea either lol! :P:heart:

The jeweled CCs are super cute! And the bag you screenshotted is majestic and very wow, but I think I like the one you have more because it's both unique yet you can really use it! If it were in my collection, she'll be out and about this December hehe. So lovely. I see it as more of a special occasion bag, but I know of many who would wear it year-round. Thank you for sharing! :love:

I promise TRR is not my favorite website (I also did a quick browse on others: Vestiaire, Fashionphile, Rebag, Yoogi's, eBay, etc), but I found one in brown: https://www.therealreal.com/product...s/chanel-paris-dallas-fringe-saddle-bag-ajtbt

Retailed for $7,900 from the 2013-14 Métiers d'Art Paris-Dallas collection, so it's being sold for a pretty great price. If you wanted one in black, I would search for "Paris Dallas" like every week. I am sure you will find it eventually lol! I have seen it before on some of these websites. Hope this helps. :smile:

Are these the ones done by Lesage? This collection was fun! I had one of them in a mini boy Chanel from around 2015 if I’m not mistaken but felt it didn’t go well with my wardrobe, it was too glam and young for my style. Thank goodness my daughter fell in love with it so she’s been putting it to good use lol

My black mini and 2.55 mini are both from 21K collection. My black mini does feel bit dressy but I've decided I'm just going to enjoy it as much as I can... jeans, sweatpants, dress or whatever I decide to wear for that day. I'm too old to be too conscious about what others think. LOL :biggrin::heart:
