COCO CHANEL

HI I'M SO EXCITED!!! My bro will be back from Milan in a few hours time with my Chanel Classic wallet! Its my first ever branded wallet so pardon me for this ridiculous euphoria.


I put in alot of effort into deciding the wallet I want! Most of you suggested for me to get a Prada. It was top of my list too. But way too common. That is the only factor that kept me hesitant. Other than that, I totally agree on its classic outlook and simplicity! :)


Since Bro said I'm free to choose whatever I please (its for my 21st), I went through Salvatore Ferragamo, YSL, Bonneta Venega, Louis Vuitton (almost decided on the Damier Ebene Joey wallet but the interior is a little mehhhh), Hermes, Mui Mui, etc etc. Trust me when I say I looked through every single wallet they have. Didn't even bother checking Gucci. Always had a blah impression.


Then one day I was comparing Prada and LV, Adam suggested we look at Chanel since I have a pair of Chanel earrings.


Love at first sight. I kinda like the one on the top left. But I prefer to just flip open my wallet without a clip so I chose the bottom one! Fell in love with the maroon interior as well. (But then later I went to the Chanel boutique to see and realise its more brownish.) Nevertheless, I still love it!



Ok here is the sad part. Bro called from Milan and told me its OOS ! I was so disappointed!!!! But then he told me there is a patent version of it! Exactly the same, but patent! K I'm tried googling for the exact pic but no idea why there isn't a clear pic of it. But here's the almost similar one in red! Mine's in black! And the interlocking Cs are not diamante. More like the one above (lambskin one).


I was actually thinking quite hard then. Patent is easily scratched. But I have also seen the lambskin one at the Sg's boutique. They showed me the display set and its kinda wrinkled and goes dull over time. So given a choice of course I want my wallet to be shiny la. Its reflective how you see the scratches? :p Ok fine, I think I'm consoling myself. But honestly I will still pick this one over Prada so I'm not complaining!



Heheh, so what do you all think? :D


I'm still damn excited! Gonna lay all my credit cards and driving license and this card and that card by my bed so I can immediately put them all in when I wake up. HEHEHE. I also intend to draw alot of money to put inside. DO I SOUND VERY SILLY? lol!


Next up, Chanel bag. Wait for it.
