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

I did think about keeping the black one, and giving the little gold one to life if I really dislike it...

Yes surely if 'good things happen to good people' and you so strongly believe that you should be planning on giving away both bags to a charity shop/passed by and really make their day - that would be a whole world of good karma right there.

But no, you are going to sell them. Not very 'nice'.

ShatnersBassoon · 09/01/2014 16:33

There's benevolent for you.

I saw some gypsies trying the black GST on a couple of weeks ago. Plus plenty of other people love them. That's why I reckon you'll ebay it easily. Knock £600-£700 off the RRP and it will fly off leaving you with £900 or so after fees.

Two questions:

  1. What did I say was made up?
  1. What am I pretending to have on the Vogue thread?

'you must know Laura and Blaine? Yes?

As one of the "little people" with no chanel bags but a firm moral compass who does not offer my time for baubles, I still don't feel the need to email photos to strangers every time I take a NetJet. And I vouch for Amber Nectarine and her PMs, because I'm one of the ones who emailed her. You seriously underestimate a lot of the ladies here and their earnings / lifestyle. You think you're unique to it because you're the only one who brags. To use the analogy from upthread, it's a little more Bottega to Chanel. Please don't resort to the crashingly obvious and sadly underestimated "you're all jealous".

CaptainHindsight · 09/01/2014 16:43

I love how sick with jealousy you are that I have access to everything you want

Do you have access to health,happiness and love?
You know, stuff you cant purchase on a cc?

Not everyone is jealous that you have "stuff" you know? Not everyone values possessions as highly as you do.

If you truly do believe in Karma, I suggest you put some humility on your friends shopping list.

mrscumberbatch · 09/01/2014 16:47

Why on earth is the OP getting a bashing over receiving a gift?

Who bloody cares how she gets it. If she is happy with it and the gifter is happy with it then fuck it.

People going on about her giving her goods to charity- wtf? Really. If you received a gift and chose to sell it would you really be impressed if people harped on at you to donate it instead? No.

OP. You're a chancer, and you must have something good going for you if you have people willing to spoil you, so fair play.

This is like the bloody daily mail comments section.

DameDoom · 09/01/2014 16:55

Amber can you tell me what lipstick your wearing on your blog please? I am the same skin tone as you but blonde and cannot for the life of me find a good winter red until I saw your picture. Love the blog by the way.

This is like the bloody daily mail comments section.

How?......exactly......?

AmberNectarine · 09/01/2014 16:58

It's Kate Moss for Rimmel 001, I believe. I have lost it so can't check the number for absolutely certain but is def KM - comes in bright red tube. Is v good but a little drying to make sure you moisturise!

Thanks re blog!

HoldMeCloserTonyDanza · 09/01/2014 16:59

Quite happy to stick photos of whatever he turns up with next week on here

Great! Why wait? He gave you all this already.

He turned up with Calvin Klein bangles and earrings (bit crappy if I'm honest, but will do for school run etc) a pretty Swarovski watch, some sparkly Uggs, which the magpie in me loves, some Chanel Coco Noir, and we ordered me some Dubarry Galways too.

Pop them up on some white bed linen, with a wee note saying "SugarHut 9/1/14". Not outing you any more than listing them already did?

My favourite post so far Grin

DameDoom · 09/01/2014 17:03

Thanks Amber - shall pop it onto my ever increasing MN list.

EasterHoliday · 09/01/2014 17:03

MN's very own Leona Helmsley. Sort of.

Here you go....

Chanel Bags...
TheRealSugarHut · 09/01/2014 17:16

Oh...gave the Coco to mother...it reaks.

propertyNIGHTmareBEFOREXMAS · 09/01/2014 17:17

I do like those uggs. I quite fancy a sparkle silver pair. I will do it one year.

TheRealSugarHut · 09/01/2014 17:20

The silver ones are nicer I think. I just like anything that sparkles lol. Mmmmm...tinfoil

TheRealSugarHut · 09/01/2014 17:22

Although...they're reaaaaaaaaaaaaallly stiff to get on and off, guessing that will ease with wear. Only had experience of the suedey ones a few years ago.

MrsCampbellBlack · 09/01/2014 17:24

I saw that photo and thought the watch was part of the boot and was trying to work out how to tactfully say I wasn't sure Wink

propertyNIGHTmareBEFOREXMAS · 09/01/2014 17:27

I've only got the standard gigs too. I live in them at this time of year. The sequins will look great with the GST. I reckon give it a carefull go before deciding to get rid.
