Chanel Bags...

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

So you think Sugar is not who she claims? Perhaps report if that is the case...

Generally what one person calls self deprecating or acceptable, many others find offensive.

Seriously, read Owen Jones on the rise of this term and why it is far more riddled with class -ism than anything we have said or implied on here.

Yes ok but think about the 'self deprecating' bit - she referred to possibly making herself look chavvy, not calling anyone a chav, that would be a pa and not on - however she has been called an escort, a rinser, an orange person, and compared to a prostitute. It's the pa's which aren't on, IMHO.

Off to bed will catch up in morning...

Mignonette · 08/01/2014 23:03

Don't really bother about what you believe and your cod psychology Mama.

SugarHut · 08/01/2014 23:06

Of course it's not, her posts are very transparent.

On a more important note...he's bought me the big one in black, and the small one in gold!!!! Why can't men ever fucking listen lol!!

Oh now you're a sexist SugarHut

HoldMeCloserTonyDanza · 08/01/2014 23:09

Now Sugar, don't be mean and sneer at MN Vogue.

Not everyone is a 5'4" famous model. We all so wish we were, though. Super jealous, right here.

cloudskitchen · 08/01/2014 23:09

Blimey, I look away for 5 minutes and all hell breaks lose Confused Have the bags arrived Sugar?

Ubik1 · 08/01/2014 23:10

Maybe if you progressed your relationship further than just coffee you might get a better bag?

Mignonette · 08/01/2014 23:11

5'4 women can model. Just not High fashion. Underwear, glamour.

SugarHut · 08/01/2014 23:15

And they're both different to what he said!! I think (think...just trying to clarify over text) I have a grand caviar quilted shopping something or other, in black.... and an "East West" bag, which he thought was a better buy as they have been discontinued (?!) in gold.

Totally the frigging opposite way round to what I'd use. What a waste!!

A bit of verbal sparring never did any harm on threads like these. Wink

propertyNIGHTmareBEFOREXMAS · 08/01/2014 23:28

The GST is a big quilted shopping tote. Pretty popular and around £1600, I think. It'll resell easily on ebay Wink

santamarianovella · 08/01/2014 23:31

sugar can you link the bags?

SugarHut · 08/01/2014 23:33

Don't want to progress further than coffee. I like his company, I'd have coffee with him regardless of whether he turned up with a gift wrapped Ferrari, or bugger all. He's funny. I enjoy it.

I am not enjoying this choice of bags though.

Woah. This thread has moved on.

SugarHut · 08/01/2014 23:38

They are sooooo getting resold lol. Is it so hard to listen to someone's direct answer to a direct question, if large, I'd like gold, if small, I'd like black?? What a waste for him. Not that I'd say that of course. Such a shame though, the ones he mentioned originally I was quite excited about. Ebay the best place?
