Chanel Bags...

[SugarHut]

Hello....not a stealth boast, more of a quick, help me not look like a chav....

A friend of mine is in handbag shop right now. He's just text me saying would I prefer a "Chanel Quilted Caviar leather Flap bag" in black, red, white or gold.

What do I have? Discounted red as I have a red Lulu Guiness clutch. Is white chavtastic? Do I go classic black, or nudey gold? Both I have loads to match, outfit wise. Help quickly please!!!! What's best?

Googled them...I presume it's the small one. He doesn't know me that well to spend loads.

TIA!!! x x x

Alma123, it's a long standing thread in S&B called Mumsnet Vogue. We chat fashion (both high street and high end) and other things. Some of the regulars on that thread have been on this thread too.

Santamaria - you might move in different well-off circles to the OP, where people don't flash their cash. But accept that in some well-off circles it is the norm. Do you not believe it?

MN Vogue??? Are you serious? Holy hell, now I am laughing.

The Ops comments were in her original post. Not that discreet.

Bit odd that you should assume what my background is All. I have explained my comment in the context of you appearing to believe that threads should be segregated and movement between them not allowed.

As for 'getting to know people via an anonymous internet forum, well good luck with that one.

Novice I know

You just cannot argue with......

With what mignonette?

From the woman who cannot even decide what colour bag to buy and is so uncertain of her style she doesn't know whether she looks 'vchavvy' that is pot laughing at kettle, my poor deluded one.

From that opening post, we could teach you a few things.

Why do you assume that people how Dont agree with you sugar and life to be jealous and bitchy? That's what I can't understand,You have to admit that is not the norm to accept gifts from strangers,just like we are taught as kids to not accept candy from strangers because it very dangerous,

Mignonette you are starting to sound nastier by the post. Leave it.

shredd in some circles maybe,but Its certainly not a circle I want to be in

Are you reading op s posts shredded?

Not as nasty as somebody who uses the phrase chavvy.

However you appear to not have a problem with that.

I consider that nastier as an attitude.

Snobbery santa - fine but realise that's what it is...

Don't talk about comedy gold !

I don't particularly mind 'chavvy' - in the context I thought it was mildly self-aware and self-deprecating. This thread is all about class I think.

I shall and will it's fucking brilliant!!

Hardly snobbery. Just dislike of rinsers. And people who post goady fucker threads. And people who use pejoratives like 'chavs'. And people who accept this.

And you don't think the term 'Chav' is about class?

Please tell me you aren't serious?

If yes, then go read Owen Jones on the rise of the abusive term 'Chav'. Because it is class ridden and far more offensive.

Posters use 'chavvy' all the time, ok perhaps some find it offensive? Have never read of people offended by it before though. It's often used as a descriptor on S and B, not as a personal insult but as a self deprecating thing - get me in my uggs and onesie, or whatever.

'Self aware and self deprecating' Now that's teh biggest laugh of the evening. You've got the gift too

Of course it's about class Mig, that was my link to saying the thread's all about class if you didn't get that. Is that your main beef with the OP then, her use of the word you find offensive?

Many MNers have objected to the term many times.

Would you use accept the use of some other pejoratives as self deprecating on a public forum?

Yes, I do, don't most of us?

I have listed my objections.

That is one of them.

This is another of a long line of trolly goady threads over the last few days. I thought the schools had gone back. Clearly not in some parts of the World
