Chanel Love Day 5
Hooray! The blog has been fixed! Thanks so much to Cliff. This pretty site template that you see is created by him. Do check out his site.
Anyway, with a little spare time to squeeze, I’m back with the Chanel loving entries.
Today, I introduce to you my sister’s favourite lug-and-go of all times. The Chanel camera bag.
The camera bag is known for its slouchy appearance. Best matched with casuals. Being a mother of two, my sister carries this bag wherever she goes, because she doesn’t have to pamper it as much.
Even though the size of this bag is comparable to that of my 2.55, it can store way much more stuff inside. There is also a huge pocket in front for you to stash something in a hurry.
The camera bag does not have a lock like the classic flaps or the reissues, but it has a metal embellishment that bears resemblance to that of the reissues. The camera bag has a main zipped compartment and there is another tiny compartment.
The inner compartment is lined with the same red leather lining as the reissue 2.55.
This is a great alternative if you want to get a casual bag. =)
Wishing you a great week ahead!
Hi Joyce, thanks for dropping by my blog. =) I’m glad you like the posts - it makes my day! Yea, Chanel accessories are all like that - looks good on some, but not others; and the rings come in one standard size! But I’m pretty sure you’ll find one that you like. I heard that the Cruise part 2 accessories is coming in sometime in mid Jan, hopefully more earrings and rings will be here!
Hi Valerie, is the camera case made in distressed calf leather as well?
Hi, yes the camera case is made in distressed calf leather. However, it is not as delicate as the distressed calf leather of 2.55.
my fren has got one.. n i found it light in weight compared to classic ones?
It is definitely lighter than the classic CCs. It is a great bag for a dress down day. I find it not as stiff as the classic CCs too. =)
hihi valerie,
this bag is sooo nice!! can i check with you, is this bag in the classic range? or izzit a seasonal item? i’m hoping to get one as well. can we still find it in store? tia..
Hello Jolene, it is a seasonal item. It is no longer sold in stores. However, you can find it on ebay. =)
hihi valerie,
thanks for ur reply. that’s very sad to hear that. =( any idea whether it will be back? dont have to be exact same as the one your sister have. i just like the shape and how it can store many things! btw, it has been so long since you last post anything on chanel.. looking forward.. =)
@Jolene: As far as I know, it ain’t coming out yet. It is a very user-friendly bag though. I can stuff my jacket in it. If you like something similar, you should look at Prada’s bowler bag. I’ve been ogling at it for sometime. Well, I haven’t had the time to snoop around the Chanel boutique. I hope they come up with some interesting accessories this pre-fall or fall. Sadly, they are starting to be a bit predictable. Happy weekend!
Hi Valerie, i like your posts on Chanel. Hope to see more of your collection/conquers soon. Happy that you manage to find the pair of earrings that you like alot.
I had the same happy feeling until I tried it (a pair of earrings). Spotted a design that I like alot on the web, sold out in the shop, a few months later it re-surfaced but when I tried it, it didn’t look good on me. Looking forward to check out their SS/10 accessories collection.
