I guess cause it's timeless. I don't really care much for Chanel. My sis, on the other hand, loves it! I mean, when it's worn together with a nice outfit, I compliment. But besides that, I just walk right past the store without looking in.
I have to admit it's on my wish list of "investment" pieces too. It's truly a classic that I'll enjoy for years to come - assuming I can still afford to eat after I buy it!
Funny, like the time long ago when I squeezed my feet into Chanel sling backs on sale like Cinderella even when my feet were too big (and I still bought it). Your subjects styled around their Chanel purses beautifully! xx
I guess it's more of the label than anything else! There are tons of bags that look just like it, but most people wouldn't stress over one of those! -Ellie
Just been looking through your most recent posts, I absolutely love the one you did on 4th July, you really captured those peoples happiness! I love that picture of the bag against the bright orange! www.styleisalwaysfashionable.blogspot.com
Dunno. The excitement about this bag is lost on me. I agree that it's probably a logo thing. I think if I were looking for that type of bag, I would be able to score something similar (and cuter) for a LOT less money!
I think some classic brands are similar to buying a watch, it's a good investment and one that can be used for "money" if you need to pawn it later.. lol It's the classic-ness of the brand and their long standing that's so alluring.
Hahaha poor girl, I hope it's worth it!* I wouldn't starve myself to get it but yes, it oozes class and chicness!* A definite must have (if you can afford it)
i think the fact that the bag's style has been around for quite some time makes it a classic that everybody covets. aw your frd! it'll be such a happy day for her when she gets one :)

this bag is amazing...
It could be that you can see the brand, but it is not too gaudy.
Fantastic pic, as ever, my friend.

I think we all have our cravings... and this one's a classic! Works with a dressed up or down look.
I don't think I'd save up for it.. but I suppose it's just one of those timeless, elegant pieces! x

i love chanel but i do not adore, so i can not answer this question but maybe the reason is; it's the model that everybody immitates,maybe:))

it's classic chanel that's why!!
it's nice but wtf it isn't that special haha!
I may be the only one,but I don´t like chanel stuff at all!
All time classic :)
It's an icon! (but it's also a bit of a cliché... I think I'd rather eat).
It is the 'idea' behind it ... and very successful branding and marketing! :) I'd rather eat too!!!

It is timeless. Chanel (like Hermes), has worked incredibly hard to not make it just another It-Bag.
Now about your friend, that is terrible! No fashion is worth giving up a decent meal!

nice shots!
size brand simplicity ...
Saw a great knock-off in NY when I was there...not sure about the top one here :)?
It's so crazy how obsessed people get over it! I used to work at Saks and people would load up on them like underwear!

I'm afraid i'd rather buy a dress than dinner. Sad really. x hivenn
This bag is just perfect for any occasion.

honestly, i'm not sure. and it seems you see it everywhere now, which makes it less appealing to me anyway.
i would rather eat well!..it is lovely but not big enough for me!....and not unique enough either.....
I love your blog!! Amazing pics and i love chanel! Have a nice evening! Hugs

I would starve myself to death to get my hands on her! :) It is a classic and timeless piece!
hugs and kisses by Mani.
I think its because it is a really classic looking bag that appeals to everyone : )
Well it's a classy timeless piece.
But starving for monthS to get a chanel purse?
Um it is never that serious.
Small yet beautifully formed. Xxxx
The bag is classic, timeless--just Chanel! :)
Love it!

This bags are classic! So I don't blame her.

I love my Chanel Jumbos, they are versatile, and go well with both casual and dressier outfits.
Hehe, so I'd totally understand why your friend is saving up for one. :)

Ahhh, Chanel.. I dream of one of these bags every night!
Iconic classic brand, history in those little Chic C's!
Hahaha poor girl, I hope it's worth it!* I wouldn't starve myself to get it but yes, it oozes class and chicness!* A definite must have (if you can afford it)

LOOOOVE that first shot!

This is such a classic and beautiful bag, but I personally would rather donate the money to charity. I'm just sayin'.

i have this bag but in the long version..i coveted it from a friend..lol..:-)
Don't ask me. I have never liked it and seriously wouldn't pay a dime for it.
i love this too.
Beautiful, beautiful Chanel! There is indeed an obsession!
Girl about Town XxX

This is my dream bag, like million other girls.
I think it's just an iconic piece...that usually draws admirers.

because it's CHANEL it's classic, that's why. it's so beautiful, I wish I had a real one.
answer: thanks. yours aswell
Oh chanel...so classic!
well to be honest i really dont get it.
very cute bag; the blazer also looks very beautiful.;)
Ooooo, love the first image!
I have this bag. Purchased at Harrods over Ten years ago. I stopped wearing it. Every second girl in Paris has one - for me that's off putting. It's now at the back of my wardrobe. I prefer antique Chanel bags from my grandmother;-)
Ok, so I may well eat my words one day, but it doesn't really do it for me I'm afraid...Probably because I'll never be able to have it!
Your pictures are so inspiring!!
Love the details..

David, you're not alone in being mystified. I've always loved the classic quilt design - but let's face it, like Sabine said, I'd rather eat.
You just keep growing from strength to strength: it's a delight to come visit here. Hope you're well.
Wow that's a serious savings there...um...I don't know what's so great about the bag. I mean it's nice, but to not eat?
