Dior definitely gave me the best experience out of all luxury brands - their SA always patience and attendance no matter which store in Europe or how basic I dress!
I know this is a serious video but your voice is so sweet so when you said "b*tch I am buying this bag with my own money" I laughed out loud. I was NOT expecting that but it got a clap from me!!!
Thank you for sharing your story and I’m so sorry to hear that that happened. I wanted to comment because I walked into one of their boutiques the other day but ended up leaving because the vibe was so tense and I just didn’t even feel comfortable being in there😅. But for the price tags on these bags I would expect the best and kindest service from the sales people. You have an amazing collection!
Aww I know how you feel walking in and feeling uncomfortable. What ever happened to “welcome, how can we help you today?” Now we basically get growled at when we walk in! Lol Thank you so much for watching! ❤️
I'm totally with you! I own four Chanel bags but every time I walk into the store, I feel like I don't 'look' like I can buy something there LOL!! It's the tense vibe.
The customer service is awful and they know it. Last year I was on the waitlist for a black Chanel 19 WOC. I finally got a call from the store that they have the bag and I can come collect it. I reached the store within an hour of receiving their message but there was a queue to wait. I told the staff that I'm there to collect the bag but they said I have to still queue up so I took a queue number. I waited at Starbucks for three hours until I got my turn to go in. When I went in and asked for the bag, they said it was sold about an hour back!!!!!! I was so angry at this entire behaviour - knowing very well that a customer is waiting outside for a particular bag, why did they sell it?? It just baffled me!!! I really gave a piece of my mind to the store manager and walked away in disgust. They definitely have more stock in the warehouse cos they organised one for me the next day.
Same happened to me, except they still had it but manager said they’re holding it for another customer! I called around and eventually had to go to another state to get it
Do not let a hateful person destroy your love for the bag... let it go, don't imprint that memory on the bag. I visited Boston and had a great experience in the LV store inside Nordstrom, then they suggested I go to the Flagship store as the perfumes are there... I felt awkward, and not appreciated in that store and I left without buying anything... The entire mall was luxury brands and I didn't visit any other stores because of the way I was made to feel in the LV store... Just mentioning that because I will probably never be in a mall of luxury again, and that one SA ruined the experience for me.
My husband told me the same thing bc you’re right , it’s crazy how a positive or negative experience of buying something can really transcend to the feelings you have toward that purchase. I had very negative feelings about the bag initially but I feel much better about it now. Thank you so much for sharing what happened to you. Don’t let the bad shopping experience at one store affect future experiences ✨ There are some super helpful sales people out there too…bad apples everywhere but some sweet ones too! ❤️
I love the mix of colors and nuetrals ❤ and that you have different styles. My collection is small. 2 vintage, 2 seasonal and it’s more than enough. I would love to add a 19 and cream classic flap if I can find one at good price in the future
Thank you so much! ❤️ I have always wanted vintage Chanel bc they’re better made and just cooler looking! I think you might love the 19 as it is a very easy and wearable bag. Thank you so much for watching and sharing your thoughts! ✨❤️
I’m with you…..”bitch…….” I love it!!!! I call and talk to my husband all the time about big purchases not for approval but just to get his opinion. We are grown ass women but as you said “out of respect….”Love this video.
I agree with all your points. I'm tired of playing the Chanel game and have better things to do with my time and money. I've also experienced an unpleasant salesperson which resulted in a bad experience - I'm too much of a wimp to complain to the manager. I have enough CC bags and anyway will be moving soon to a shore area where it's less "flashy" than my current NYC suburb - I'll be happy to leave the $$ in the bank. What a beautiful collection you have!
Sorry you had a bad experience too. But sounds lovely that you’re moving close to a shore! I was just editing a raffia bag collection video coming out in 2 weeks so maybe you’ll spend your money on fun and less expensive raffia bags for a new lifestyle 😉
Wow I love your collection! You have such a nice variety of neutral and wearable colors plus fun and unique pieces so it’s a well-rounded collection. I think your attitude is so sweet and very honest and relatable. I couldn’t agree more about how luxury feels like you’re spending more and getting less now a days. Well everything is like that now. Anyway I would love to see more content from you, so I subscribed!
Reminds me of an experience buying an LV bag before. The seller was kind of rude, like she was hurrying me to pay for it because other people were interested. I asked her if I can pay like 2 hrs later because I was looking after my kids. She was like, no you have to pay now because other people are very interested. It's not like I was going to pay the day after! So when I look at the bag I still remember that experience.
Ugh, I’m sorry and totally understand! A bad experience can really kill some of the joy when you look at the bag sometimes. That is def what happened to me too. But I had to remind myself to separate the two things and just enjoy my bag….I couldn’t let that person’s bad energy follow me. I hope you can do the same ❤️
Wow! I just found you and watched this-my first video of yours. Needless to say, I loved it and subscribed! You have a stunning collection! I LOVE the different sizes and colours! My first Chanel was/is a green Coco Handle with aged gold hardware that I bought at rue Cambon in Paris. It is so pretty that it MIGHT change your mind. 😉 I’m looking forward to binging all of your videos that I’ve missed, as well as all of your future offerings! You have made this fellow ‘Grandma-style Lover’ very happy! Have a lovely weekend! ❤👜❤🇨🇦
Oh this was so nice to read! Thank you so much for your kind words…and green has always been my fav color so I am sure your coco handle is just gorgeous 😍 I hope you enjoy my other videos. I’m still a TH-cam newbie so I am trying to make future videos better over time. So glad you also love the “grandma-chic” style too! 😂🙌❤️
I love your collection. The way you wear the pearl crush tuck the end inside the bag. That way you will end up with a double chain on one side and one side with a single chain. That is a very cute style.
I think the strap hanging doesn’t look unfinished and you can tuck in the bag too. You have a very good collection, which is similar to mine. I just bought a 22.
I’m so sorry that happened to you, and you’re right, you deserved a much better experience. But yes….. I get the lack of inventory sort of makes you at their mercy, and you have to get it when you can find it.
Right?! Hunting is fun if it’s out of production or maybe you prefer to buy preloved,etc, but when it’s currently being sold in stores & you’re “lucky” to find it, hunting becomes a game :/ Thank you so much for watching! ✨❤️
I really enjoyed your practical, honest, thorough reviews and would feel the same way you do- those are almost the exact bags (and colors) that are on my list. Except I’d probably have to double up on the 19 and get another that’s pink PINK. I love brightly colored lux bags and appreciate that you didn’t just branch out to colors after U got them all in black/brown first (like a lot of ppl on here). Also, I don’t think ANY of them are grandma bags… or tacky. I think they’re classy and timeless!
How is it that my grandmother has cherished the same CHANEL handbag for nearly half a century? It's astonishing to witness the precipitous decline in quality among these so called "luxury" brands. Dior sweaters, once known for exceptionalism, now unravel before your eyes due to the inferior length of their cashmere fibers. Versace offers BRASS jewelry that tarnishes one's skin within a week, while CHANEL's fine jewelry is prone to snapping and shedding its precious stones. Moreover, Hermès has ceased to allow customers the courtesy of selecting preferred hues for their bespoke bags. I yearn for quality, yet these brands seem to forsake it altogether. How can it be that a modest ring, purchased for 50€ from a local artisan during my travels, outlasts a $700 ring from Versace? (I still treasure the former, while the latter was discarded long ago.) It is genuinely shocking. In today's world, if one desires luxury, it is found not within the walls of boutiques, but through the talents of exceptional seamstresses, particularly those in the drag community. Opt for high-caliber fabrics and invest in singular, handmade garments, crafted by individuals with distinctive stories. This, indeed, is the epitome of luxury, uniquely yours, unmatched in its personal significance.
Amen! I agree with everything you said 👏 It’s such a shame that prices go up and quality does not match. I appreciate you sharing your thoughts and watching! 🌟❤️
You have a good collection! Green is my color too and that’s what I am actually waiting to close my collection with but I haven’t been lucky enough to get one that I am in love with. There was one that got away last year….. I was unable to come down to the boutique right away and so😩 I have had a rude SA before too..good thing I did not see anything I wanted that day because I wouldn’t want to buy from her. Thanks for sharing your collection ❤
Aww, your comment made me smile so big! The sassy is def the New Yorker in me 🤣 Although I feel truly awkward on camera so I am working on loosening up a bit more over time 😉Thank you so much for watching! ❤️
U have very nice collection. I have a pearl crush mini square. I tuck a long tail in to the bag when wearing on shoulder and it looks good~ problem solved😊
I love the Trendy CC because of the metal plate on top. Mine came with the raised Chanel on it and I get lots of compliments whenever I use it.🥰 Like you, I won’t be buying anymore handbags from Chanel. Last SA I dealt with was not very nice when I told her I didn’t want to buy a display bag, she told me I was too particular. With the amount of $$$ I’m spending I’m not just going to settle on a display bag that’s been fondled by so many hands. I asked for another SA and she sarcastically told me good luck getting a brand new untouched bag. I went to another boutique and got the bag I wanted in a different color (brand new),,the SA was much nicer but I didn’t like that she tried to pressure me to get a matching wallet after I just spent an arm and an ass for my classic handbag.🤦🏻♀️
Oh man, some people can be a real treat sometimes 💩 Sounds like you did the right thing and I’m glad you were able to get your bag elsewhere with a nicer person ❤️
45 minutes is really long, you know there’s usually a very long line right? They are pressured to close sales. I usually spend 15 mins max. If I don’t want it, I just say no and mindful not to take up their time too. Having said that, she could be more tactful.
What a lovely collection you have here dear Heart 🥰 I think it’s great that you have one of each style and in some beautiful and more unique colours 🤩 I only have one Chanel bag…so far (😂)… a black CF like yours…I adore it, a true classic. Super video, I look forward to watching more ☺️ Subscribed 😁🤗
Awww, thank you for your lovely reply 🙏 You come across as such a sweet soul and I’m sorry you had such a crummy experience when you bought your coral mini 😔 Having watched today’s video I have no doubt you most certainly didn’t deserve the dismissive treatment you received from a rude SA. Lots of stories like this around these days though sadly…some of these brands have gotten too big for their boots! Best wishes Heart 🥰
I’m sorry you had a bad experience. That SA would have left a bad taste in my mouth too. Like you, out of respect for our marriage; my husband and I tell each other when we’re making a big purchase. Great video!
It def left a bad taste in my mouth with how exceptionally rude she was and I wished I didn’t buy the bag from her but sometimes you just have to buy the bag while you can…I hate that me mentality too (sigh) 😏 Thank you so much for watching and sharing your thoughts! ✨❤️xo, Sharon
We Are Buying Bags That Are The Prices Of Used Cars So Needing Help To Buy A Bag Shouldn’t Be A Problem Most Of These People Work At Chanel And Don’t Have One If Any And If They Do They Do Get A Discount I Think Some SA’s Are Jealous Yet Need The Money… Enjoy Your Bag Beautiful Call Your Hubby When You Need Help Buying Love Your Video And Story Time… 🎀🛍️💖
Thank you! I use Collonil leather conditioner but there loads of other brands that do the same. I plan to do a video showing how I condition my Chanel mini. Hope that helps! ❤️
I use Collonil leather cream but I have also used Cadillac conditioner too. Yes, I will definitely do a video on how I use them on my Chanel mini bags! Stay tuned and thank you for watching!
I’ve been tucking it in the bag but it falls out as your wear it. The newer versions have 3 grommets at the top to prevent having a lose tail so that’s a brilliant update! Thanks for watching! ❤️
@@heartmumblr I know this sounds a little off but if you tuck it in and then open the bag and safety pin it to the inside with a very small safety pin, (assuming the interior is not leather, I have to go back and look at the review ) so nobody sees it do you think that would help.
@@GiveMeTheLook it has a leather interior so that would be tough to do, however I could tie it with a small ribbon on the inside w the other strap! Love this helpful community! ✨❤️Thank you!!❤️
I use Collonil leather cream, but there are a number of other good brands out there too. Cadillac is another one I’ve used as well. I hope that helps and thank you for watching! ❤️
You have a nice variety of Chanel handbags, but what is a collection without a pool handle Coco Handle 😂?! That is my favorite bag from the brand and only bag. I’m eyeing a Trendy CC because I tend to lean towards top handle bags. My experiences in store have been lackluster, so I ended up purchasing preloved. Enjoyed your sweet sassy personality.
Lol I’m so sorry about my pool handle comment 😂 but I agree, I love a good top handle bag… I hope you find a trendy cc that you love 💕 Thank you so much for your sweet comment ☺️
Coco handle look nice on the outside but not a very practical bag to use imo. Cant put as much things despite their outer sizes look is bigger. I have 3 and sold 1. Maybe Thinking of selling 2 of them again... 1 is small 1 is medium sized. I have 1 trendy cc as well.
Nice collections you got. 😊 its time to move on to Hermes lol... Its quality is much better than chanel. So far in my country, the SA in H serves better than in C. But my C SA isn't rude.... The H SA is just more enthusiastic and engaging... Clothes and shoes in H is also more affordable than in C... Of course we spend for their BKC but some of their bags are cheaper than C but quality is much better. I was a die hard Chanel fan and now moved on to H after the peace purse from Chanel.
I don’t have the Hermes bug yet and I hope for the sake of my wallet I don’t 😆 😂 There are still so many brands who make beautiful bags so I will always be looking 👀 Thank you so much for watching! ❤️
Maybe someone can answer me this question. Does the Chanel 19 gets very very deformed if it is used all the time? I ‘m not talking about the slouchiness that characterizes the bag but more about being deformed to the point of loosing its shape.
Of late I’ve wondered, where do the bad guys in James Bond movies get such dedicated employees? Look at that, so many people can’t even purchase $10,000 handbags without stink.
This really helped me. I have been contemplating buying a classic flap in the mini size for months now. I have a *small* collection of chanel items but I could never bring myself to spend that much money on a bag. My mother would raise up out of her grave and slap me!! Lol
I totally understand…to be honest, I generally hate talking about prices bc if someone in my real life heard how much I paid for these bags, they’d be horrified and I couldn’t logically explain it to anyone who doesn’t love handbags. Sometimes the heart wants what the heart wants (sigh) 🙃 Thank you so much for watching!
Wow that SA was horribly rude and very inappropriate! I’m so sorry you had that experience. I can see how this would leave a bad taste in your mouth regarding the brand.
It's sad people collect purses but not clotehs. It's just 3K suits like all designer s uits from what we can tell. It's a sign they can't afford this stuff. It is overpriced in order to create mystique. Too bad it's so high. They got rich and famous by selling cheaper stuff, too. No idea how much their jewelry is. The cost*. It'd be intreesting to know how much those pins were. A-lot probably. We were at aberson's alley and they sold 3K suits there. 3 000 $ suits.
It seems like walmart is selling chanel copy shoes and accessories now. The berets back there with the tweed headbands and the flower hair clips look like they might be camelia which is chanels logo or whatever. We bought some of that stuff. They had braided pearl headbands too and chanel does braiding always. we touched one and a pearl fell off on the end though. didn't buy that. oh and a coat looked like a chanel knock- off.
I am a byatch when someone is to me. I would ask for their name, speak to their manager and then report them to the head office. and keep going until I get someone higher up to respond. I would be a pain, quote the date and time. Many would just forget about it but that's just not me. These people exist because everyone let them be rude to them. You are actually paying their salary and their boss is just the middle man that hands it to them. So I never feel bad to report these sales associates.
I know what you mean. I feel the same way but sometimes I just want to get in and get out of the store with my bag…I should have said something but I didn’t want to deal with her any longer than I needed to. 😣 Thank you for watching! ❤️
Great collection! With respect I think when a person thinks a luxury handbag it’s “not worth the price” is either A- not truly a real brand (Chanel) lover but more of a person that thinks bag’s value is what it matters. Or B- Someone that probably thinks handbags are for investments. IMHO a true brand handbag lover, buys the bag and thinks is worth for her and an investment for their wardrobe. I DO AGREE 💯 that SA was very unprofessional, snob and not properly educated in etiquette, I am sorry that happened to you, it’s incredible how often we hear stories like yours about this. I love Chanel it’s my favorite fashion house! Personally, it is worth it for me and an investment for my wardrobe, but I would not like to have this kind of service from a SA no matter what fashion house or brand is.
I agree with you 💯! Whether something is “worth it” to someone is completely personal…and it could be for so many different reasons. But you’re right, I probably do think of the bags value relative to what I think it’s worth vs am I a die-hard Chanel lover. For now, I feel “purse peace” with Chanel. I don’t think I will ever reach purse peace in general though! 🤡 Thank you so much for watching and I appreciate your perspectives! ❤️
I was once a die hard Chanel fan because i have been wanting to have it since a kid. Yes many of my friends/cousins wear chanel bags given their wealthy background. But i wasn't the case hence my obssession with Chanel because i can only look at it from afar. Now i can afford it and i bought 17 handbags in 3 years since 7yrs ago. Then went on to SLGs shoes etc... And i felt purse peace as well with chanel. Then i start to wonder of its price... If it's worth it... And i also dont feel its worth it especially after i start to move on to Hermes since 2021. I stop buying chanel as well. So im with Heart. Once you reach a peace purse, you will wonder if its worth the price. And especially if you moved to Hermes because their quality is far exceeds chanel.
“The chanel kool aid” - lol you’re so funny. That SA sounds awful, why is she even working in retail, not to mention for a terribly expensive luxury store!
😤She was the worst of the worst actually. It was inside the Bergdorf location so maybe she just works for the discount?? Bc it certainly isn’t so she can help ppl make fun purchases 😅
The girls in the Chanel store are actually envious of the shoppers as they can’t even afford it themselves so forget her! B**ch pls as you said haha!!!
If the price goes up, that indicates the value is increasing. This is more reason to purchase a Chanel handbag. Have you taken a course in economics? I would buy bags. They are tangible, unlike the monetary system. Chanel has had one of the best investments in classic bags in the past 30 years. Could you do your homework?
@@erlin7878 I have a right to my opinion and based on your reaction to my post, so do you!! I support Chanel 100 percent on how they want to run their business. Have you ever owned a business? I doubt it.
Dior definitely gave me the best experience out of all luxury brands - their SA always patience and attendance no matter which store in Europe or how basic I dress!
Agree, they seem to be consistent with their service which is really nice! Thanks for watching!

U have very nice collection. I have a pearl crush mini square. I tuck a long tail in to the bag when wearing on shoulder and it looks good~ problem solved😊
I love the Trendy CC because of the metal plate on top. Mine came with the raised Chanel on it and I get lots of compliments whenever I use it.🥰
Like you, I won’t be buying anymore handbags from Chanel. Last SA I dealt with was not very nice when I told her I didn’t want to buy a display bag, she told me I was too particular. With the amount of $$$ I’m spending I’m not just going to settle on a display bag that’s been fondled by so many hands. I asked for another SA and she sarcastically told me good luck getting a brand new untouched bag. I went to another boutique and got the bag I wanted in a different color (brand new),,the SA was much nicer but I didn’t like that she tried to pressure me to get a matching wallet after I just spent an arm and an ass for my classic handbag.🤦🏻♀️
Oh man, some people can be a real treat sometimes 💩 Sounds like you did the right thing and I’m glad you were able to get your bag elsewhere with a nicer person ❤️
I can relate( I want the items fomo I just take the abuse from the sales associate) , your a genuine person and thank you for sharing your story 🥰♥️
You’re so sweet! Thank you so much for watching! ❤️
My husband said it’s look like for old lady and I’m 34. Lol.
Lol! They’ll never understand us! 🤣 Thank you for watching! ❤️
You definitely have the dream Chanel bag collection! Enjoy!!!
Thank you so much! ❤️
45 minutes is really long, you know there’s usually a very long line right? They are pressured to close sales. I usually spend 15 mins max. If I don’t want it, I just say no and mindful not to take up their time too.
Having said that, she could be more tactful.
What a lovely collection you have here dear Heart 🥰 I think it’s great that you have one of each style and in some beautiful and more unique colours 🤩 I only have one Chanel bag…so far (😂)… a black CF like yours…I adore it, a true classic. Super video, I look forward to watching more ☺️ Subscribed 😁🤗
So glad to hear you are enjoying your CF too! I feel such positive energy from your comment. 🥰 Thank you so much for watching! ❤️
Awww, thank you for your lovely reply 🙏 You come across as such a sweet soul and I’m sorry you had such a crummy experience when you bought your coral mini 😔 Having watched today’s video I have no doubt you most certainly didn’t deserve the dismissive treatment you received from a rude SA. Lots of stories like this around these days though sadly…some of these brands have gotten too big for their boots! Best wishes Heart 🥰
And you’re right about the quality often not being a match for the ridiculous price tags
@@rachelscrase3050 so true, Rachel! ❤️
I’m sorry you had a bad experience. That SA would have left a bad taste in my mouth too. Like you, out of respect for our marriage; my husband and I tell each other when we’re making a big purchase. Great video!
It def left a bad taste in my mouth with how exceptionally rude she was and I wished I didn’t buy the bag from her but sometimes you just have to buy the bag while you can…I hate that me mentality too (sigh) 😏 Thank you so much for watching and sharing your thoughts! ✨❤️xo, Sharon
You are so funny. I enjoyed your video, lovely collection. You don’t have grandma taste at all and if you do, I’m a grandma, too!
Haha! I also go to bed early so I def have a granny lifestyle 😂 Thank you so much for your kind words and thank you for watching! ❤
love yout collection, I'm looking for special peices in pre-owned market now given the crazy price
Yes it’s a little nuts now. I hope you find your perfect special pieces! ✨Thank you for watching! ❤️
We Are Buying Bags That Are The Prices Of Used Cars So Needing Help To Buy A Bag Shouldn’t Be A Problem Most Of These People Work At Chanel And Don’t Have One If Any And If They Do They Do Get A Discount I Think Some SA’s Are Jealous Yet Need The Money… Enjoy Your Bag Beautiful Call Your Hubby When You Need Help Buying Love Your Video And Story Time… 🎀🛍️💖
Thank you so much for watching! ❤️
Beautiful collection! Can you tell me which leather conditioner you use? Thank you!
Thank you! I use Collonil leather conditioner but there loads of other brands that do the same. I plan to do a video showing how I condition my Chanel mini. Hope that helps! ❤️
Great collection and right size too!
Thank you so much! ❤️
Can you tuck the tail in the bag?
Hi! What leather conditioner do you use? Can you do a tutorial?
I use Collonil leather cream but I have also used Cadillac conditioner too. Yes, I will definitely do a video on how I use them on my Chanel mini bags! Stay tuned and thank you for watching!
Why can’t you put the tail back in the bag?
I’ve been tucking it in the bag but it falls out as your wear it. The newer versions have 3 grommets at the top to prevent having a lose tail so that’s a brilliant update! Thanks for watching! ❤️
@@heartmumblr I know this sounds a little off but if you tuck it in and then open the bag and safety pin it to the inside with a very small safety pin, (assuming the interior is not leather, I have to go back and look at the review ) so nobody sees it do you think that would help.
@@GiveMeTheLook it has a leather interior so that would be tough to do, however I could tie it with a small ribbon on the inside w the other strap! Love this helpful community! ✨❤️Thank you!!❤️
Thank you for sharing your CC collection! May I ask what product you use to condition and protect your bags?
I use Collonil leather cream, but there are a number of other good brands out there too. Cadillac is another one I’ve used as well. I hope that helps and thank you for watching! ❤️
When she says I dont have a large collection and keeps bringing out more bags...🤣
My husband says the same! 🤣
You have a nice variety of Chanel handbags, but what is a collection without a pool handle Coco Handle 😂?! That is my favorite bag from the brand and only bag. I’m eyeing a Trendy CC because I tend to lean towards top handle bags. My experiences in store have been lackluster, so I ended up purchasing preloved. Enjoyed your sweet sassy personality.
Lol I’m so sorry about my pool handle comment 😂 but I agree, I love a good top handle bag… I hope you find a trendy cc that you love 💕 Thank you so much for your sweet comment ☺️
Coco handle look nice on the outside but not a very practical bag to use imo. Cant put as much things despite their outer sizes look is bigger. I have 3 and sold 1. Maybe Thinking of selling 2 of them again... 1 is small 1 is medium sized. I have 1 trendy cc as well.
Good Review!🎉
Please do an review of the trendy cc 🙂
Will do! Thanks for watching! ❤️
Nice collections you got. 😊 its time to move on to Hermes lol... Its quality is much better than chanel. So far in my country, the SA in H serves better than in C. But my C SA isn't rude.... The H SA is just more enthusiastic and engaging... Clothes and shoes in H is also more affordable than in C... Of course we spend for their BKC but some of their bags are cheaper than C but quality is much better. I was a die hard Chanel fan and now moved on to H after the peace purse from Chanel.
I don’t have the Hermes bug yet and I hope for the sake of my wallet I don’t 😆 😂 There are still so many brands who make beautiful bags so I will always be looking 👀 Thank you so much for watching! ❤️
Maybe someone can answer me this question. Does the Chanel 19 gets very very deformed if it is used all the time? I ‘m not talking about the slouchiness that characterizes the bag but more about being deformed to the point of loosing its shape.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen one very misshapen but then again this bag has only been around since 2019.
@@heartmumblr Thank you.
Of late I’ve wondered, where do the bad guys in James Bond movies get such dedicated employees? Look at that, so many people can’t even purchase $10,000 handbags without stink.
This really helped me. I have been contemplating buying a classic flap in the mini size for months now. I have a *small* collection of chanel items but I could never bring myself to spend that much money on a bag. My mother would raise up out of her grave and slap me!! Lol
I totally understand…to be honest, I generally hate talking about prices bc if someone in my real life heard how much I paid for these bags, they’d be horrified and I couldn’t logically explain it to anyone who doesn’t love handbags. Sometimes the heart wants what the heart wants (sigh) 🙃 Thank you so much for watching!
@@heartmumblr Don't ever feel like you have to justify. ❤️
I love brooches too!
😊😊
Love the array of colors within your collection. Beautiful! ❤
Thank you so much! ❤️
I love you Chanel collection. I’ll never be able to look at a Coco Handle without thinking of pool bars now. Lol 😅
Haha!!! I’m so sorry! 🤣 Sometimes we can’t unsee things, lol! Thank you so much for watching! ❤️
Beautiful collection! Hi from Toronto
Oooh I love visiting Toronto! And thank you so much!! ❤️
Beautiful collections !
Thank you so much! 😊
Lovely collection x
Thank you so much, Belinda! 😊
Wow that SA was horribly rude and very inappropriate! I’m so sorry you had that experience. I can see how this would leave a bad taste in your mouth regarding the brand.
Yes but thankfully there are so many other brands to still enjoy! 😉Thank you so much for watching! ❤️
It's sad people collect purses but not clotehs. It's just 3K suits like all designer s uits from what we can tell. It's a sign they can't afford this stuff. It is overpriced in order to create mystique. Too bad it's so high. They got rich and famous by selling cheaper stuff, too. No idea how much their jewelry is. The cost*. It'd be intreesting to know how much those pins were. A-lot probably. We were at aberson's alley and they sold 3K suits there. 3 000 $ suits.
It seems like walmart is selling chanel copy shoes and accessories now. The berets back there with the tweed headbands and the flower hair clips look like they might be camelia which is chanels logo or whatever. We bought some of that stuff. They had braided pearl headbands too and chanel does braiding always. we touched one and a pearl fell off on the end though. didn't buy that. oh and a coat looked like a chanel knock- off.
the extra chain on the bag's okay to us it's like their clothes matching them.
beautiful chanel 19🤍
Thank you so much! ☺️❤️✨
I am a byatch when someone is to me. I would ask for their name, speak to their manager and then report them to the head office. and keep going until I get someone higher up to respond. I would be a pain, quote the date and time. Many would just forget about it but that's just not me. These people exist because everyone let them be rude to them. You are actually paying their salary and their boss is just the middle man that hands it to them. So I never feel bad to report these sales associates.
I know what you mean. I feel the same way but sometimes I just want to get in and get out of the store with my bag…I should have said something but I didn’t want to deal with her any longer than I needed to. 😣 Thank you for watching! ❤️
Tuck in the tail to the bag!!!!😊😊😊
Great collection! With respect I think when a person thinks a luxury handbag it’s “not worth the price” is either A- not truly a real brand (Chanel) lover but more of a person that thinks bag’s value is what it matters. Or B- Someone that probably thinks handbags are for investments. IMHO a true brand handbag lover, buys the bag and thinks is worth for her and an investment for their wardrobe.
I DO AGREE 💯 that SA was very unprofessional, snob and not properly educated in etiquette, I am sorry that happened to you, it’s incredible how often we hear stories like yours about this.
I love Chanel it’s my favorite fashion house! Personally, it is worth it for me and an investment for my wardrobe, but I would not like to have this kind of service from a SA no matter what fashion house or brand is.
I agree with you 💯! Whether something is “worth it” to someone is completely personal…and it could be for so many different reasons. But you’re right, I probably do think of the bags value relative to what I think it’s worth vs am I a die-hard Chanel lover. For now, I feel “purse peace” with Chanel. I don’t think I will ever reach purse peace in general though! 🤡 Thank you so much for watching and I appreciate your perspectives! ❤️
@@heartmumblr btw, yes it is the pearl crush 😊
@@je-suis_Tati Ah!, good to know now, thank you!! 😊
Totally agree with this.
I was once a die hard Chanel fan because i have been wanting to have it since a kid. Yes many of my friends/cousins wear chanel bags given their wealthy background. But i wasn't the case hence my obssession with Chanel because i can only look at it from afar. Now i can afford it and i bought 17 handbags in 3 years since 7yrs ago. Then went on to SLGs shoes etc... And i felt purse peace as well with chanel. Then i start to wonder of its price... If it's worth it... And i also dont feel its worth it especially after i start to move on to Hermes since 2021. I stop buying chanel as well. So im with Heart. Once you reach a peace purse, you will wonder if its worth the price. And especially if you moved to Hermes because their quality is far exceeds chanel.
❤❤❤
“The chanel kool aid” - lol you’re so funny. That SA sounds awful, why is she even working in retail, not to mention for a terribly expensive luxury store!
😤She was the worst of the worst actually. It was inside the Bergdorf location so maybe she just works for the discount?? Bc it certainly isn’t so she can help ppl make fun purchases 😅
Oh my goodness! Sooo Rude!😮
I think she’s in the wrong job 🤨 (sigh). Thank you so much for watching 🌟❤️🤗
I don't buy Chanel because of the Nazi connection.
Yes, definitely a stain in their history
The girls in the Chanel store are actually envious of the shoppers as they can’t even afford it themselves so forget her! B**ch pls as you said haha!!!
If the price goes up, that indicates the value is increasing. This is more reason to purchase a Chanel handbag. Have you taken a course in economics? I would buy bags. They are tangible, unlike the monetary system. Chanel has had one of the best investments in classic bags in the past 30 years. Could you do your homework?
I don’t buy bags to sell later. I buy to wear and enjoy 😊
Wow... What a jerk comment and self assuming. 😥
@@erlin7878 I have a right to my opinion and based on your reaction to my post, so do you!! I support Chanel 100 percent on how they want to run their business. Have you ever owned a business? I doubt it.
@@lanafeulner4083 not only a jerk... U are ignorant as well lol
I believe no girl can say no to *yutulu*
