10 Beautiful Chanel Bags You Need To See

December 14, 2019 by Haya No Comments

Most people know Chanel for the iconic classic flap bag and their sleek slingback shoes. But Chanel is so much more. Did you know that behind every bag there is a story which takes you through the lavish life of Gabrielle ‘Coco’ Chanel? That every motive and colour are memories of her childhood? When buying a Chanel bag you’re not just paying for the leather and labour, you’re investing in design, art, quality and history!

Here are 10 Chanel bags you should put on your wishlist

1 — Chanel classic flag bag (small)

Obviously I can’t do a top 10 Chanel without including the classic flap. This is a bag which will go with ANY outfit and a bag you will never get tired off. A lot of people will buy this bag thinking that it will only be used for special occasions, but end up using it for every day. I would therefore recommend that you get this bag in grained calfskin (caviar) as it is a much more resilient materiel to scratches and every day wear and tear. This bag does not loose its shape so it does not need special storing or stuffing when not in use!

Price: €4.450 EUR

2 — Rue Cambon Shopper (large)

I Love love love this bag. It is a pain in the arse to get a hold on, but so worth it! This bag is made in canvas and excellent if you’re travelling or a student as has the perfect size and does not get worn out that easily. It looks super chic and laid back!

Note: This is a seasonal bag with seasonal colours which usually comes with the collections launching in May and November!

Price: €3.822 (Price varies depending on style and material)

5 Gorgeous Chanel Handbags That Will Inspire You (Full Prices Included + PICS)

October 19, 2019 by Haya No Comments

Ladies, I have been thinking recently about Chanel handbags that I think will look amazing for the end of 2019 and that will hold up beautifully in 2020. Here are my Glamazon approved picks for 2019 and 2020. I would love to know what you think of them so drop a comment or contact me anytime.

1 — Chanel 19 Maxi Flap Bag in Tweed/Houndstooth

I think this bag is definitely different for Chanel in that the perimeter of the bag looks softer and not as hard with the edges compared to the Chanel Boy Bag. I think this would work well for autumn and winter, but also for corporate or business settings for women who want a bag that goes with work clothes. I know many people are not a fan of the Chanel 19 bag but I am happy that Chanel are trying to do something different. Constant Boy bags and flap bags was getting boring. I like that they are experimenting with bags in different shapes without too much structure. It is a breath of fresh air. You can see more variations of the bag here.

Prices in the boutique

  • $5,000 USD
  • £4,260 GBP

2 – Chanel Deauville Tote Shopper Bag in Mixed Fabrics

This might sound crazy but this is one of my favourite Chanel handbags I have seen in a while because it is actually practical. I have been looking at shopper tote bags in a new light recently. I think before when I was younger, I saw them as a bag for older women but I think as we become more urbanised in the world and as our lifestyles change, it becomes more useful to have a handbag that is like this because you can put a lot of stuff in this bag. I have heard some YouTubers say the bag can become quite heavy but to be fair, I think that’s to be expected of shopper bags. They are not meant to be bags that are super comfortable – they are meant to carry a lot of your things. I can see this Chanel shopper tote bag being perfect for my life in Tanzania because we have a new plastic bag ban in my country.

I definitely love this bag and it is on my wishlist for 2020 so I will keep you updated if I am successful in purchasing it in the boutique the next time I go travelling. I could see myself using this on days out going to my local shopping centre or when I am running errands. Totally obsessed with it. You can see more variations here but I love this dark deep wash blue, almost like denim. I think it will go with everything.

Prices

  • $4,800 USD
  • £2,370 GBP

3 — Chanel Flap Bag with Burgundy & Black Contrasts

Chanel 4

You guys have to see more of this bag on their website – it is so unique and different. It is burgundy, more like oxblood on one side, then it is black on the other. I have to say, I am loving that Chanel is trying to get out of their comfort zone by designing different bags besides just the standard formation flaps. I love how different this is – I was taken aback on first when I saw it on their website but I like it more and more when I look at it. This is going to sell out if it has not already.

Price

  • £3,720 GBP (can only find it on the UK site for now)

4 — Chanel Trendy CC Bag in Yellow with Chevron detail

This Trendy CC Bag is one of my ultimate favourites. The super bright yellow hue looks gorgeous and I think it will go well with my skintone. Considering the fact I live in a sunny country, I think this shade of yellow would look amazing with the landscapes in my country. I could see myself using this Trendy as a daily wear bag as well – it looks practical and glamorous. As usual there are many colours to choose from. I really like it in yellow but I have also seen it in grey (gorgeous), camel brown, green, red and blue etc all over Instagram. I am partial to grey as well and blue. So many colours!

Price

  • £3,200 GBP

5 — Chanel Trendy CC Bag in Black with Large Quilting

While I prefer the Chevron detail of the Trendy CC vs the quilting, I love the glossy yet matte look of this black Trendy CC flap bag. I think the quilting looks better in black and I think the Chevron looks better in other colours. I love this bag as a daily work wear bag or if you are doing an all black everything outfit. I can see this bag getting a lot of use especially for me since I run my own small business and I like wearing black and monochrome often. I definitely will be considering this piece as well, It comes in loads of colours as well.

Price

  • $5,600 USD

What do you think of these 5 Chanel bags? I love them all and I think they all have a different vibe depending on what look you are looking for. I am partial to the Trendy CC and the Deauville but I love when Chanel takes risks and tries new styles so I definitely want to see the Chanel 19 in person. I like things that are edgy and different yet ladylike and feminine. I think these bags encapsulate all of these elements.

How much should you spend on a Chanel bag?

August 1, 2019 by Haya No Comments

Buying a Chanel Bag whether you buy it in the boutique or you buy it used is an experience but it also requires strategic planning or budgeting. Each potential customer has to think about how much she wants to spend on a Chanel bag, how much she has available and how she is going to buy the bag itself. Personally – I am just a fan of buying a Chanel bag new instead of used. Why? I prefer new luxury bags because I like the idea that the bag is brand new and therefore it can be moulded & sculpted to you and your personal tastes. I also don’t like the idea of buying a used bag but you can still use my financial tips to buy a Chanel bag – just adapt it to the fact that the bag is used.

How much should I pay for my Chanel bag?

The most important thing is that you should only spend what you can afford. One of the biggest mistakes people make with luxury bags whether it is Chanel, Fendi or Louis Vuitton is that they overspend in order to buy a bag. You should not get into any debt to buy a handbag. If you are buying a Chanel bag new, you will be paying the list price that you can search online. My personal preference is Boy Bags and the new trendy releases from the brand so these tend to start at $2K+ for the smaller sizes.

3 Beautiful Chanel Bags For 2019 (Including Prices)

April 26, 2019 by Haya No Comments

These are my Glamazon approved picks for 2019. I am totally obsessed with these Chanel bags for this year and I have also included the prices as well in case you are super interested. For the sake of clarity, I will include USD and GBP since most Chanel shoppers tend to be international.

1 — Chanel Waist Bag

I love the classic look of this bag yet it has a twist because it sits on your waist. This bag looks like it suits Gen Z shoppers more as well as it is more youthful.

Price – $4,000, circa £3,100 in the UK

2 — Chanel Small Flap Bag

Chanel Bag 5

This bag looks ideal for women who work in corporate settings or business women in generation. I love how polished and corporate it looks. This is the closest Chanel bag I have ever seen to looking like a ‘work bag’. I love this for women who are in business or executive positions.

Price – $4,500, circa £3,500

3 — Chanel Small Boy Bag

This option is so gorgeous OMG I cannot even handle it. The hardware is gold and the colour looks rich and textured. This bag is really small though to be fair so if you want a Chanel bag that fits a lot of stuff inside, this probably is not the bag for you. I like how compact it looks though.

Price – $4,100 in the US, £3,200 in the UK

Which of these 3 Chanel handbags do you like the most? I think I need the top handle handbag the most because I spend so much time working. I love it a lot.
