CHANEL HANDBAGS & PURSES

We’re used to seeing  Chanel handbags that comes quilted in black and has gold-tone hardware to accompany a luxurious look. That being said, I am surprised upon seeing this Chanel Reissue 2.55 Alligator Flap Bag, which is a more exotic version of the classic 2.55 purse.

This Chanel Reissue 2.55 Alligator Flap Bag is totally far from the usual 2.55 purse, since obviously, it doesn’t have the quilted design and it does not come in black. Rather, this bag is made from alligator skin, and I just love how it combines bluish shade with grey perfectly. Having such texture alone is enough to make this bag brilliant and definitely eye catching and luxurious. It also doesn’t have the double C logo that we usually see on most of Chanel’s bag designs, but still, looking at it already screams luxury and it doesn’t need to have anymore labeling.

This Chanel bags then comes in the classic rectangular shape, and it opens through brass tone hardware on the front flap. The gorgeous chain strap as well looks interesting, though it is still different from other Chanel bags with leather and chain handles.

This Chanel 2.55 Bag is actually part of the brand’s pre-spring 2010 collection, and based on its design, it would probably go for about $20,000 to $30,000.

I’m pretty sure that these photos of supermodel and Victoria’s Secret runway-walker Karolina Kurkova prove that a truly beautiful woman can wear almost anything and look beautiful.

 I’m not saying the outfit isn’t cute – it is, in a casually tomboyish, utterly Parisian way. But the average woman might look a little stumpy and frumpy in it, whereas someone as statuesque and lithe as Kurkova looks coltish and fresh.

As far as the accessories go, I might advise her to lose the somewhat unnecessary fedora, but I’d definitely tell her to keep her beautiful, black Chanel Bags.

The bag gives the ensemble that extra bit of French flavor, but wearing it cross-body keeps the look super casual and comfortable. Overall, I’d call this a very well-chosen outfit – much better than jeans and a t-shirt, but just as comfortable.

It is normal and definitely not surprising if you see Katy Perry around in her quirky outfits since she’s always been known for such. What is surprising is if you see her in a very sophisticated and classy ensemble just like what you see on this shot.

Katy Perry is indeed a pop rocker, but it seems like she also has another career as shown on this photo— an office girl or a jury, perhaps? Well it is because she seems so sophisticated, demure and very mature in her leather jacket and tight pencil skirt, complete with black stockings and dolled up hair that looks so neat. What adds an even classier look to her entirety is the Chanel handbags . We’ve already seen her carry the same bag before, but it is the first time we’ve seen her pair it with this kind of getup.

Having a Chanel 2.55 bag can really make one achieve the abovementioned appeals and it is indeed hard to look cheap if you carry such a classic Chanel bags. I totally love Katy Perry’s new image here, but I don’t think such ensemble would be fine while performing on stage.

We may not have seen Mischa Barton on TV lately, but that doesn’t mean she has stopped looking fabulous. Here she is spotted at some place in her luxurious golden blouse finished with an equally luxurious Chanel 2.55 bag.

I’m just not feeling that kind of hairdo (if that’s what she calls it), because it somehow made her look older than her age. Instead of showing the beauty of her face, her hair just covers it all up. Good thing it doesn’t cover the bag anyway. Seriously speaking, the Chanel bags has always been a choice among many other celebrities so it shouldn’t be surprising seeing her with such a bag.

This is indeed an iconic Chanel purses done in black quilted leather design. It is combined with some gold-tone hardware, which simply makes its totality look even more luxurious. Of course, it also has that classic handle, done in chain and leather combination.

We know that the Chanel handbags is also a versatile carryall that it could even transform a laid-back outfit into a statement one. Thus, having such would surely make of a great investment piece.

Among its architectural masterpieces and other urban attractions, Melbourne, Australia also boasts the largest shopping center in the Southern Hemisphere. Chadstone, or rather “Chaddy” as it is sometimes referred to by locals, is home to a collection of shops that ranges from Target to Tiffany’s.

The luxury fashion precinct of  Chadstone is actually a new addition, though. The elegant boutique section includes Burberry, Gucci bags , Coach, Chanel bags , and more with other major labels rumored to move in soon.

Chanel bags celebrated the opening by releasing an exclusive 2.55 quilted lambskin bag, which contains a special plaque inside to commemorate the launch.

You’ll have to be in Australia to get your hands on one, though. This limited edition bag is only available at the label’s store at Chadstone.
