Chanel Reissue Tragedy

My sister alerted me to a disturbing news. It seems that the House of Chanel is up to their tricks again.

It is apparent that they want to focus on producing the CC Classic Flaps handbags and will not produce as many Reissues. Being a true Reissue fan, I’m utterly distraught.

Since the reissue was re-released in 2005 to mark Chanel’s 50th anniversary, it has won the hearts of many. With its dainty Mademoiselle lock, user-friendly chained-straps and distressed look, it wasn’t difficult to see why the Reissue struck a firm friendship with its fans out there.

I had originally planned to acquire a Jumbo Reissue in a light colour sometime in the next two years. That will add depth to my current collection of Sisters Matt Black 2.55 and Black East-West. It does not only allow me to carry more stuff during the day’s activities, it also colours up my outfit.

Alas, my dream may never materialise - with the craze of sudden purchases from all its fans out there! I heard that Matt Black 2.55 is hard to get in quite a lot of places. (Thankfully I purchased mine already, before the price increase and before this crazy hunt)

What a sad piece of news for the day.

Can you imagine the resale price of the Reissues? But, no way am I parting with mon bebe.

What tragedy.
