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

I've tried to give constructive advice. I warned that it could be 'a flap for a flap' situation if OP is not careful then added a few comments re sizes, prices, colours and styles. The soundbites from Karl were helpful to all on the thread. The man is an insightful genius.

People will no longer be putting thoughtful quotes from Confucious or the Dalai Lama on their FB pages, it will be words of wisdom from Karl!

Can't believe some of the posts here last night. Stunning hypocrisy from some of the posters.

I read an article once where Karl described his cat as a 'kept woman'. She has her own iPad and everything Grin.

Karl is a bitch, but I love him. He would be so fun to have martinis and a gossip with.

impty · 09/01/2014 10:44

I've been reading some of Karl's quotes...

'Never use the word “cheap”. Today everybody can look chic in inexpensive clothes (the rich buy them too). There is good clothing design on every level today. You can be the chicest thing in the world in a T-shirt and jeans, it's up to you.

'I think everyone should go to bed like they have a date at the door.'

'I hate intellectual conversation with intellectuals because I only care about my opinion. '

'I’m very much down to earth, just not this earth.'

Love it.

He is a bitch isn't he! I was a bit Shock when I read this quote - 'Kate Middleton has a nice silhouette and she is the right girl for that boy. I like that kind of woman, I like romantic beauties. I don't like the sister's face. She should only show her back.'

impty · 09/01/2014 10:48

'A sense of humour and a little lack of respect: that's what you need to make a legend survive.'

My favourite. Karl, if you ever need a companion for champagne and gossiping, call me. Wink

MarshaBrady · 09/01/2014 10:49

Good one Karl, very funny.

impty · 09/01/2014 10:51

We can all agree that the guy is a legend. Cohesion on the thread at last Grin

AmberNectarine · 09/01/2014 10:53

He's a legend isn't he? I love the idea of a cat with an iPad.

santamarianovella · 09/01/2014 10:55

We should have a web chat with Karl,

dexter73 · 09/01/2014 10:55

I might get my hamster an iPhone.

santamarianovella · 09/01/2014 10:57

dexter GrinGrin, but he might get hurt If he finds out that Karl's cat has an iPad .

impty · 09/01/2014 11:00

dexter73 · 09/01/2014 11:01
