Chanel Classic Flap Bag: All Eyes on You

This gonna be a special post! I will introduce a Chanel classic bag to you. (Well, this is not special, cause I always do, LOL) In addition to showing you this bag, I am pleased to introduce its history and making process. Ok, let’s flap it.

Some people dream of years of owning a Chanel Classic Flap Bag, some already own, and still others think that they are too traditional and played-out. Well, I couldn’t agree less with that third group of people. With lots of finishes, colors and sizes, Chanel’s famous flaps have a little something that everyone can appreciate, if you stay open-minded.

Speaking of its name, let’s start with 2.55. I bet most of you have encountered this number before, but few of you know its real meaning. 2.55 is the category of bags generally that have a flap and chain strap. Coco Chanel introduced this Chanel bags in Feb 1955, so that is where this name came from. Yes, the 2.55 refers to ALL flap style bags including variations of the original. As we all know, over the years there have been many variations to the original design of the 2.55 including the leather or fabric, the chain ( metal or interwoven leather, single flap or double flap), and the closure ( mademoiselle or interlocking CC). Anyway, I just name one of them-Chanel Classic Flap Bag in Black.

Now, let’s enter the making center to see how this classic bag comes into shape. The entire production process takes 180 processes, directly or indirectly involved in the manual up to 6 people. 2.55 bags of a subject required 2.5-hours to complete one. Fist of all, all the leather pieces are hand-cut by Chanel experts, and then sewing, bonding and assembling carefully.

Working from sketches, a range of hand-made mock-ups are produced before selecting a final prototype and deciding on its exact proportions and stitching details. This whole development stage is shrouded in mystery and usually takes around a week to complete. Then out of the 200 to 300 prototypes produced for each collection, the studio selects around 30.

Before the bag can be assembled, the leather must first be prepared. It is cut from the skin either by hand, using a punch, or by computer, and is then machine-stitched, trimmed and finished. This is an extremely precise process, with all dimensions measured to within a fraction of a millimeter. 

80% of the total production time is spent on the assembly table, where Chanel’s master craftsmen use their expertise to produce an item of unmistakable luxury. During this process, each bag is turned inside out and back again, because the craftsmen have to make sure the inside is as good as the outside.

And then, prepare the beautiful accessories, make leather clothing chain by hand and wear the chain on the fixed bag.

Mission completed!

Excellent Chanel Handbag Collection for Paris-shanghai 2009/2010 Fashion Show

After watching the biographical movie Coco Chanel, I learned that Paris-Shanghai is a fantasy and a trip that coco chanel only made in her dreams. However, if you have seen the paris-shanghai 2009/2010 fashion show, you would know that it is not fantasy any more. On this fashion show, young and beautiful models, both oriental and occidental, wearing gorgeous haute couture that complemented with fashion accessories like designer handbags and shoes, either appearing in extremely glamorous black or popping china red. Shanghai bund set a huge outdoor stage for the fashion party of different cultures and styles. Personally I am very interested in these fashion handbags appeared.

There are all together ten chanel handbags in this collection. Firstly is a classic flap bag features hand-embroidered sequin allover. This fresh vivid green bag comes with mademoiselle chain and Chanel signature turn-lock. I am afraid there is no more suitable spring bag than this one.

Secondly is a diamond quilted evening clutch, which is crafted in blue high quality calfskin. It features top zip closure and double c plague on front. It is to be controlled in your palm rather than via a chain strap.

Thirdly is another green shimmering evening clutch attached to a shoulder chain. The bag is mainly made of plexiglass with vivid diamond pattern.

Fourthly is a strass-embroidered classic flao bag with mademoiselle chain and chanel signature turnlock. This bag embodies the typical Chinese art style.

Besides, we also have a quilted lacquered tweed classic flap bag with mademoiselle turnlock and metal detail. it assumes an vintage flair.

Christina Aguilera Rocks with a Chanel Handbag

Christina Aguilera is well known for her unique fashion taste, which of course is not as eccentric as that of lady gaga’s. You may have seen her spotted dressing normal, but most of times she dresses too loud or too rocking.

Indeed, Christina Aguilera has gone through a punk rock makeover as she is clad in her denim cutoffs over black leggings, red peep toe pumps, striped black and white tee, and a black biker jacket. Now if you thought she’d finish her getup with a handbag from a brand who’s known for its rocking designs, well surprisingly, she finished it all off with chanel handbags.

We’ve known Chanel for its classic and naturally luxurious designer handbags, but who could’ve thought that they also have pieces that are made to anchor a rocking ensemble (or so we thought). Christina Aguilera’s Chanel bag isn’t the classic quilted bag anyway; instead, it comes from smooth black leather material, and what made it look so tough, edgy and rocking is the double C logo on the front, which is actually patterned from stud-like hardware. And of course, the bag has the usual chain and leather strap to hold.

Now this is what we can call a glamorous and luxurious punk rock ensemble. Enjoy a taste of being celebrity with cheap fake handbags

Chanel Leather Goods of Spring Summer 2010

As a grand master of luxury items, Karl Lagerfeld has never failed to surprise us with his gorgeous designs. The Chanel 2010 Spring Summer Collection is no exception. You may have been convinced that the spring summers days are for bright and colorful eye-catching handbags. But the cheering up theory does not work with Chanel. It is another shocking collection after his amazing paper-folded camellia collection in down 2009. Once again he has successfully applied the simple grey color and natural cotton linen fabric in handbag making.

This time its leather goods collection consists of three parts–outstanding pieces, bags and small leather goods. There are two marvelous and innovative bags in the first set. It is hard to imagine and it is hard to carry out unless in cocktail parties, I am afraid. One is a metal, fabric and rope basket embellished with fabric flowers, jewelry accents and ribbons and the other is a quilted classic flap bag with Chanel signature turn-lock and interlaced chain strap, and the bag is embellished with silk layers and Lemarie fabric flowers.

The bags collection contains 14 bags: quilted classic flap bag in fabric with CC turn-lock and interlaced chain strap, embellished with fabric camellias; quilted classic flap bag in satin with Chanel signature turn-lock and interlaced chain strap; classic flap bag in tweed and silk with Chanel signature turn-lock and interlaced chain strap; classic flap bag with interlaced chain strap and embellished with crochet flowers; quilted classic flap bag in printed lambskin with Chanel signature turn-lock and interlaced chain strap; classic flap bag in tweed with Chanel signature turn-lock and interlaced chain strap; quilted “Double Bag” in patent calfskin: mini classic flap bag with CHANEL signature turn-lock, interlaced chain strap and clutch with clasp closure;

Nicole Richie is Shining with Chanel Purse

Although being a mother of two kids, Nicole Richie still managed to look awesome. It is sometimes bothersome to take care of two kids, still the love courages to appear more beautiful and charming.  Nicole is shining in her black dress that completed with a red Chanel purse.

Here’s the couple once again who are about to have a date somewhere in NYC. As always, Nicole Richie looks beautifully stunning and rocking while sporting an all black ensemble. What better way to punctuate such a rocking façade than with a vibrant and sexy red Chanel purse. I truly love her Chanel handbag despite it not being in classic black shade. It still shows the usual quilted pattern, and there seems to be a diagonal flap that holds the Chanel logo stitching.

This Chanel bag is small and it’s just the perfect size for an evening party. It also has the usual chain and leather sling handle, which you can obviously carry over your shoulders; but Nicole Richie opted to just carry it by hand. Well, I guess she wants us to notice that enormous rock on her finger, and who wouldn’t be able to notice such a large dazzling stone anyway? Why not try on a Replica Designer Purse at a low price?

Chanel Coco Cocoon Tote Carried by Rihanna

Perhaps Rihanna is known to be the kind of rock-chic lady for most people, but it doesn’t keep her from carrying sophisticated and elegant Chanel handbags. Although it is a little bit weird to see it at the first sight, I have to admit that she really knows how to pull fashion looks together. The originally feminine designer bag assumes a rock style. 

She has proven it once again as she was spotted all geared up for a trip. Wearing her camo pants and denim jacket, you can clearly tell that she is indeed sporting a tough façade; yet carrying that Chanel Coco Cocoon Tote somewhat softens her entirety. The bag is sure is a smart choice of carryall for a trip or even just for those days when you need to carry a lot without sacrificing glamour and style.

Just like other bags from Chanel’s Coco Cocoon line, this bag is also done from nylon material. You know that such would be very functional and versatile, and coming in black all the more makes this an all-around carryall. This comes in fluffy finish, which makes it look so soft that you may just want to rest your head on it while on your journey.

Indeed, Rihanna knows her fashion well, so we shouldn’t really be surprised seeing her with such a strange yet chic ensemble. Treat yourself with a cheap Replica Designer Bag to wear like a super star.

Chanel Spring Summer 2010 Handbag Pre Collection

How long have been waiting for Chanel to release new handbags? I have been looking for it the day I have seen the last season’s bags. I like Chanel purses very much. They are beautiful, elegant, functional and decent. The Chanel Spring Summer 2010 Pre Collection is no exception. As is known to all, a single Chanel handbag is very pricy, but I think the hefty price tag can not keep us from appreciating and evaluating these designer bags. There are all together 16 pieces in this collection. I will list most of them.

Chanel Black Flap Bag with Paris Venise Lions CC Signature

If you are a Chanel handbag fan, then you have every reason to believe that each Chanel Bag has a special story behind it. That is what I have been looking for—a bag that is elegant and decent and has special meaning. As to this Chanel Black Flap Bag, I guess the link lies in its Paris Venise Lions CC Signature, which makes this bag unique from other merely elegant Chanel bags. Let’s explore it. Obvious, this Chanel Black Flap bag has something to do with the maritime city of Venice, the capital of Veneto, Italy. The Venice flag is features a red lion even. Many may wonder why a maritime city would have a lion as its mascot instead of a seagull. There is a long story related to S. Mark behind it. The tourism guide will tell you the story vividly if you pay a visit to that mystery city. I guess that I should not unveil it. Any how, the result is later the apostle’s traditional symbol—a winged lion—became the logo of Venice.

That is exactly the application plague on this Chanel patent calfskin bag. This bag is accretive in the Paris Venise Lions CC Signature and the shimmering light of its patent leather. This Chanel bag enjoys a modest capacity for daily carrying. The black color enables it to go anywhere at anytime. It has soft cotton lining and interior zip pockets under the leather flap. The bag can be used as a handy clutch and a shoulder bag as well. It has a black leather interlaced chain. It may be pricy, but it would be timeless for seasons to come.  Buying a Replica Chanel Bag would also be a good idea if the authentic is too much for you.

Gorgeous Chanel Cruise 2009/10 Handbag Collection

Chanel fashion house has released its Cruise 2009/10 Handbag collection for a long time, and it is possible that you have seen some of them carried by others or displayed on shop winter. Here I will give you a complete range show of this collection. Just vote for your ideal bag. There are 11 handbags in this set. They are made from different materials in various colors and shapes.

Personally I like this Classic quilted flap bag in tweed cotton fabric very much. It is touchable and elegant. There is no better choice for noble office lady. The bag features leather-interlaced chain and CC turn lock.Secondly comes another classic flap bag in blue quilted lambskin with CC turn lock and leather interlaced chain. Like this bag? Then make sure that you are not grabbed by the innovative key ring. It is sold separately. It won’t be cheap, I guess.Thirdly is a flap bag in black patent leather with Paris Venise lions CC signature and leather interlaced chain. I like this bag very much for I believe there must be a special story behind the Venise Lions plague.Fourthly come the small black patent calfskin shopper with a large Chanel embossed signature and leather-interlaced chain. I bet that this bag will win with the multicolor signature logo. That is marvelous.Fifthly comes a white quilted camera case in lambskin stitched signature, Gros grain piping and interlaced chainSixthly is again a classic quilted flap bag in striped lycra CC claps and interlaced chain with shoulder pad. I like its unique color and the touchable flair. Seventhly is a tote bag in red and white fabric and lambskin details. It has CC metallic pendant and leather interlaced chain. It would serve as an ideal causal carrying.Eighthly is also a large tote bag in fabric with leather interlaced chain. It has large gros grain stripes and CC handle. The CC handle is very innovative. Besides, the blue and white color combination is fresh and cheering.

Ninthly is a large shopper bag in soft quilted lambskin. Such a bold red bag in hand will bring you a warm feeling even in chilly cold winter. Tenthly a small tote bag in light golden soft lambskin, without quilted detail, I am afraid this bag would appear too puffy. What’s your opinion? The last one is a quilted bowling bag in soft lambskin. Its zip front pocket is very convenient for holding tiny essentials. You can imagine the above bag to be very expensive, so buying a Replica Designer Purse would also be a good idea.

Mischa Barton and Chanel 2.55 Handbag

The Chanel 2.55 handbag used to be a landmark of the handbag kingdom. The bag is as legendary as its designer—Coco Chanel. The bag version is still popular among many people and Mischa Barton included. You may didn’t see Barton recently, but she is as fabulous in looking as she always is. She was spotted carrying the luxurious Chanel 2.55 bag and wearing a golden blouse. Black and gold, the color matching can not be better.

I’m just not feeling that kind of hairdo (if that’s what she calls it), because it somehow made her look older than her age. Instead of showing the beauty of her face, her hair just covers it all up. Good thing it doesn’t cover the bag anyway. Seriously speaking, the Chanel bag has always been a choice among many other celebrities so it shouldn’t be surprising seeing her with such a bag.

This is indeed an iconic Chanel purse done in black quilted leather design. It is combined with some gold-tone hardware, which simply makes its totality look even more luxurious. Of course, it also has that classic handle, done in chain and leather combination.

We know that the Chanel bag is also a versatile carryall that it could even transform a laid-back outfit into a statement one. Thus, having such would surely make of a great investment piece. If such a designer bag is too much for you, you can buy a Replica Designer Bag at a cheaper price
