Too different with the former constant style of Chanel, this new released Chanel Large Dot CC Handbag appears like different species. Not only the bright color, but also the look gives a deep visual impact to the customers. The only thing is not changed is the fact that this earthquake of the change of Chanel has still been the most popular item and it’s sold out again since the first batch. And it has proved again that after the baptism of the wind and rain, the stage of fashion for many years always belongs to Chanel.

This Chanel Large Dot CC leather handbag is a big-sized bag made of soft leather, with the measurement of 62″x36″x20.5″. And thanks to the double flat link chain handle, you can hold it to anywhere all over the world. The inside zip pocket and cell phone compartment enlarge enough space for to carry a lot of necessary stuff like make up, cell phone, keys, even books, clothes and camera. Besides, five protective studs at the base offer the extra protection for the bag comes with dust cover, authenticity card and care booklet. The pearls inlaided in the leather shape in the significant CC logo, and both of the edges are also inlaided with them as well, which is the part I like it most.

Chanel has successfully mixed the wildness with elegance in this bag, and the dark blue version is my favorite which just makes up the simple design. Simple, stylish and functional, it must be popular for all kinds people. If you don’t wanna be the Daddy’s Girl any more, please try this one. It’s neither over the top nor too cumbersome.

Frankly speaking, the moment when I first saw this Chanel See Through Cassette Purse, I couldn’t believe how much I see. If there is no determiner ” Chanel” to modify this purse, I just flat-out wouldn’t have believed that it was designed by this luxury house. It’s too different from the former designs. Lacking a little bit of the stylish feeling, but this purse has successfully drawn the people’s all attention. Besides, the most astonishing thing is not the appearance itself, it’s post which reminded me of Michael Jackson immmediately. I was almost convinced that MJ was still alive, and this advertisement post was his new propaganda.

Therefore, I understood enough to figure out that where the inspiration of this purse came from. Although it’s just my suppose, the proof might be seen from the post. Firstly, the model holding the transparent tape looks like Michael Jackson, especially the slim fingers. And the cassette is also one of the materials which Michael Jackson used for his MV. As we all know, people around the world are mourning for the death of Michael Jackson. I am not sure this is just a coincidence or it was actually designed to commemorate him, even it’s just the incisive financial sense of the businessmen. What the hell, I prefered the second possibility.

Thus I want to regard this purse humanized. Not just that, the little exquisite metal chain hooked on the purse helps the purse easy to carry and the volumn is capable to hold small essentials in daily using. See through purses have blown the trend over the teenage girls in Japan, but unfortunately, some adults there normally considered it as the low-class style which was just a handbag shaped like a cassette with the name ‘Chanel’ scrawled on the front and the back. Anyway, I don’t mind and on the contrary I like it very much. It doesn’t disgrace the elegance and nobleness of Chanel.

I remembered a few years ago, when Coco was selected by Chanel as the spokeswoman, some ladies of quality were strongly discontented about it because they thought someone who was not really popular could not match the containing and elegance of Chanel. Little does one think, after a lapse of a few year, the same embitterment stroke Lily Allen.

Lily has been chosen by Karl Lagerfeld because “She’s fun.” Chanel has always picked only the best and thus Lily might be feeling very privileged as her name is included into the list that already has big names like Nicole Kidman, Audrey Tatou, Kiera Knightley, and Kate Moss. Besides, Lily is a huge Chanel fan, and due to her music talent like the actress in Orange Road, she utimately became the new muse of Karl although there were lots of rumors about her before.

Lily Allen’s advertisement campaign for the Fall 2009 Chanel bags is finally out. Toting a bag from the collection called “Coco Cocoon”. I love Lily Allen’s homage to Audrey Hepburn’s character from Breakfast at Tiffany’s so much. The modern take on Holly Golightly is a perfect match for Lily’s personality.

Here are some of the first images of Lily Allen for the Chanel Coco Cocoon handbag ad campaign, shot by Karl Lagerfeld himself. Totally lovin the puffy quilted bags, which drive me think of the cotton candy or the soft shermons full of sweet dreams. It is no ordinary Chanel purse. The reversible handbag is contemporary rather than classic, just like Lily Allen herself. I can’t find an exact word to describe the material: cotton, lambskin and nylon? Anyway, it’s so cool and odd!!!

I Can’t wait to see more pics and the full range of accessories. And you don’t know how much I love Lily Allen since I first heard her voice. She looks like a beautiful princess in ads. The new Chanel ad campaign is set to be released in October 2009, looking forward to it…

Among so many luxury brands, Chanel is the brand which has a huge spectrum of price from hundreds to many thousands of dollars. You can find Chanel bags anywhere you go. Why is so popular? Because quality and versatility are some innate features of these handbags which are made from some of the best fabrics available.

And for various new released handbags during these days, Chanel Classic Flap and the Chanel Reissue 2.55 bags rank the most popular handbags. But the two kinds seem so similar. Therefore, the question about the differences between them is asked very commonly. As the die hard of Chanel handbags, I also feel puzzled. Then after searching some informations on the internet, I educated myself and found the answers.

Firstly, the difference in history.The lock on the Reissue is the original lock, it is called the Mademoiselle Lock as Ms Coco Chanel never married, the ‘CC’ lock was introduced to the Classic Flap Bags only in the 1980s by designer Karl Lagerfeld. The 2.55 in its name refers to the first release of the 2.55 bag in February of 1955. And the 2.55 refers to all flap-style bags, including variations of the original! The term classic flap commonly refers to the flap with the interlocking CC closure and the leather interwoven chain.

Secondly, the difference in shape. Please let me summarize it as follows:

1. Closure/Locks: Classic has the double CC turn-style lock, the Reissue has the Mademoiselle lock (rectangular shape).
2. The handle: The reissue has an all chain handle, while the classic has leather interwoven between the chain links.
3. Reissue has a different type of leather, that is made to seem more worn than the caviar leather on the classics.
4. All the reissues have a double flap inside, whereas the Jumbo Classic does not.
5. The sizes on the Reissue are different than the sizes on the Classic Flaps.

Thirdly, the difference in size and price.

The Chanel Classic Flap Bag comes in three sizes:

Small – 9″ x 5.5″ x 2″ – $1,495.00 Caviar + $100.00 more for lambskin
Medium – 10″ x 6″ x 2.5″ – $1,595.00 Caviar + $100.00 more for the lambskin
Jumbo – 12″ x 8″ x 3″ – $1,695.00 Caviar + $100.00 more for the lambskin

The sizes for the Chanel Reissue 2.55:

$1,795 A302224: – The Baby 7.5 W x 5.75 H x 1.75 D inches
$1,895 A302225: – Small 9.75″ x 7.06″ x 2.16″
$1,995 A302226: – Medium 11″ x 8″ x 2.5″
$2,095 A302227: – Large 12.25″ x 9.18″ x 2.5″
$2,495 A302228: – The X-Large aka Jumbo 14.2″ x 9.8″ x 3″ (rare)

By the way, although the Chanel Reissue 2.55 is more classical, the Chanel Classic Flap Bag is more popular recently. However, it’s all up to you. Check this out, Jessica Alba is carrying her classic Chanel 2.55. Whether or not, it’s honored to own anyone of them.

The House of Chanel in Paris, underKarl Lagerfeld, remains one of the top design houses today. And he is one of my favorite designer as well. To my excitement, Karl Lagerfeld presented Chanel’s pre-fall collection entitled Paris to Moscow. The line included this cute Russian doll clutch that Lily Allen was showing off last night. And it’s interesting to find out that Lily seems become the huge fan of this clutch. You could see it from every media that she looked so happy to wear it.

Chanel’s black resin and gold Russian doll handbag is made in the image of the traditional wooden Matrioshka nesting doll and was created for the Paris Moscow Pre-Fall 2009 show. I love the overall shape and design of the bag. The slash leather factor is fairly cool. The strip of leather is tightly placed against the seams. The larg soft lambskim tote bag takes on a pyramid quilt effect. Therefore, it’s no question that when you attend some formal occassions. This bag is a mix bag of elegance and sweet. Neither too serious nor too chidish. I am just worried about how to put my cell phone or even a notebook in it. This bag serves more as a decoration than a bag. Perhaps I’m a little bit practical, aha… and I am wondering where did the inspiration of the designer come from? I don’t want to admit it looks like the traditional Japanese dolls. I strongly advise the designer to come to China seeing our Fuwa, which might be the next series of Chanel handbags…

Mention in passing. All in all, this Chanel cute clutch is really a gift for all the girlie friends. However, if you want to be out of pocket, it’s available at £2,500.

Chanel Handbags are elegant and luxurious pieces of designer wear. Every Chanel lover must have a stylish and trendy Chanel Handbag at hand.Chanel handbags are created with premium quality leather, silks or fabrics so needless to say, the quality of Chanel bags is always excellent. Its superior quality reflects in its craftsmanship which is an epitome of high quality. Chanel handbags are well known for their clean lines and top quality materials. The polished chain and bold brand symbol on every bag sets them apart from their peers.

And design it for you… this is my understanding of this Pink Large Tote in Ultra Soft Lambskin. Chanel uses high quality grained lambskin on this tote bag. In the front is a large quilted Chanel CC logo which reminds me of the elegance and grace of the pioneering French fashion designer, Coco Chanel. It comes with a size of 14.2″ x 9.5″ x 5.1″ which is a suitable size for your stuff on working days or vacation days. Four studs at the bottom provide extra protection for your handbag. I guess it is actually crafted to be a stylish carryall, and then being stylish comes next.

Perhaps this Chanel Large Tote Bag in Soft Lambskin is not the most sophisticated and classy bag in Chanel 2009 spring/summer collection, but we cannot deny that it could go well for an adorable summer look.

The Chanel bags are always showing the classic vividly and incisively, and the bag I am going to presenting today is no exception. This classic Flap Bag in Two Tone Lambskin is a rare model in a unique geometric pattern with the silver tone CC logo turn clasp which is just stricking against the bags of other brands. This medium bag is a great way to get the monochrom graphic trend while remaining the black&white classic.

The bag is graceful and practical, intellectual Chanel style. It features a double silver chain interlaced with white leather, 8.5″ drop with a magnetic closure with Chanel logo on the front. For it’s made of supple top quality lambskin, the bag is soft to the touch. And the innner soft fabric lining makes you too fond to leave. Moreover, the sliver hardware reflects the light glow against the sunlight, representing the elegant classic of female. A spacious interior with two pockets; one patch pocket and one zipped pocket for the convenience of daily using..all which remain in beautiful condition. Not one you’ll come across any time soon, very rare. The interior has a zipped pocket with the serial number at the bottom of the bag.. A beautifully tapered bag that is quite spacious and super rare, very Chanel. The size is 11.5″Lx3″Wx7″H.

Truly one of a kind, this bag assumes a different take on the classic flap. Black and white are the most timeless color matching. It is the most popular color in the fashion kingdom and still is and will always be. And there is a another color matching of this bag—pink and black which I am loving it. It’s a good try to combine the feminine elegance with the virgin modesty.

Different from the previous Chanel handbags, its shape is long tectangular. The moment I first saw this, I immediately thought of wine bags. However, that is fashion which is always pursuing unique and knockout. No wonder the Chanel designs are both functional and blazonry, it great for the stylish woman on the go.
