I want need another flap bag. In beige/camel/brown/ivory. I would love to get another Chanel. A 2.55 maxi. Yeah, I’m aiming for that. And maybe a 2.55 226 too. (Nah, not a 225 or WOC – the smallest I’d go is 226. I’ve too many things to lug around!).
But I would only want to buy Chanels direct from Europe. Singapore prices are ridiculous. So those will have to wait till the end of the year.
A cheaper alternative would be the YSL Chyc. I love YSL!

This baby looks decidedly vintage but somehow manages to exude a contemporary feel. I like!
Well, we’ll see. I’m trying not to spend for a month or so cos I’m heading to HK for a couple of days in March so I should be disciplined.
Hmmmmm… *trying to pry herself away from the Internet*

love the chyc range too! in my initial somemore.. that tan bag’s cute but looks too small for me.. i’d settle for the purses!
The large one, is of 11″ wide (http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/94515). Smaller than the 2.55 227. And def. too small for a mommy!
HK in March?????
What abt June??????????
booooooooo!!!!!!!
Still going! HK is Mar is Nal’s annual sch trip! Thought I told you about the Mar one?
eh regarding the chanels directly from europe, we treked out to 4 chanels in paris to get my sis in law’s medium double flap. they sure sell like hot cakes. & since their boutiques are rather small, the range was quite disappointing. good luck. so frustrating when u’re ready to blow your money but there’s nothing you fancy
hehe.. alternatively, you can try Carol from the happiness store (http://the-happiness-storefront.com/). She does concierge services for Hermes and Chanel direct from Europe and Japan and is very trustworthy and reliable (prices are very much lower than singapore even after she takes her cut).
my colleague got hers from london – considering that the pound is soo super low now, i doubt it will make much of a diff if there’s none from paris, would it? still significantly cheaper than sg!
hey! yes yes! you were there in Dec!! where are the photos?! what did you get!!!?? i wanna seeeeeeee!! how did Alya do during the trip?
