It's perfect for those who always wanted a Chanel 2.55 but think that the Classic 2.55 in lambskin looks too mature, then this is the perfect opportunity to get your hands on one! The pink gives the 2.55 a much more vibrant and youthful vibe. Like it, it retails for $3,450, but you can get it at a <b>discounted price</b> (yes, you're eyes aren't deceiving you!) at <b>$2760</b> via <a href=" http://www.bluefly.com/Chanel-pink-quilted-jersey-shoulder-bag/cat20428/301670501/detail.fly">Bluefly </a href>. A certificate of authenticity is included. <br /><br />I know that for jersey it's still a splurge, but hey, at least you get it at 20% off right? ;) *wink*Bagaholic Babehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07544638027588443348noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540654027862139469.post-19431253513904285292008-10-03T02:35:00.023+08:002008-10-04T01:04:20.685+08:00Bottega Veneta S/S '09Out are the times where people make purchases for seasonal items. Instead, the majority of them seek classic/evergreen items they can collect and wear over the years. And thanks to high fashion and luxurious labels, you'll never have to throw out your newly purchased bag because the zipper's out of order - although you've only really made use of it for 3 months!<br /><br />This coming Spring, you're looking at luxury in muted browns. Bottega Veneta, well known for its woven bags, shocks us again this season with an extensive range of bags, purses and clutches in caramel right through to dark saffron, copper and chestnut. Check them out below.. <br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiw6E3p7zL8kdCMhkW08eBe8tQvIz1yecMR_lp_JiWbdLQosmV4bEgqnZcgKXoeKl_8V7m09F4Psm2KKoNWxOIwnN2FF0ZwjAKxtt7fB2kVuOOT4sB3rx1IMTk0EkqhsofMPUk5bCXov2_q/s1600-h/bottega1.jpg"><img style="display:block;

Lots of hardwork and dedication was required to bring about such a fine collection - even right down to the intricate details. Fabric treatments and handcrafted leathers were not overlooked as it was necessary to give you all the vibrant summery, earth tones you have today in this collection. <br /><br />I personally recommend the half woven, half tarnished copper shopper hobo as well as the shopper as they're hot from the oven!

But it's all just a hobby to him.</span><br /><br />PIROON Wacharamontri is an unlikely bag designer, considering his day job. A lawyer by training and profession, he makes handbags as a hobby.<br /><br />But his bags, which are made of exotic skins and lambskin and embellished with semi-precious stones, have become so popular, his hobby might just become a full-time career!To date, his bags have been sold in Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan and the United States, with high-end stores like Neiman Marcus and Lane Crawford carrying his designs. The latest market is Malaysia with his creations being sold at the new Tang's at Pavilion in Kuala Lumpur.<br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZUBuYaNV__F62mkbcibubzrNki06z7y5Ghe9O2C19dQxIG-sc8JavpzCynyiPvvj_qrYCNrvVWojOjYgGQ3JNEh1iqiPyLGojqlYCEZNhPYLgsGZKC34yfk_NVtm1Z_PIc1egLIJiWaOX/s1600-h/bagatelle1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZUBuYaNV__F62mkbcibubzrNki06z7y5Ghe9O2C19dQxIG-sc8JavpzCynyiPvvj_qrYCNrvVWojOjYgGQ3JNEh1iqiPyLGojqlYCEZNhPYLgsGZKC34yfk_NVtm1Z_PIc1egLIJiWaOX/s400/bagatelle1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5233546160297685554" border="0" /></a><span style="font-style: italic;">[Red and green dominate the Fall/Winter 2007 collection]</span><br /><br /><br /><br /> For now, however, the boyish Piroon, 34, is content to design the bags that do not even carry his name. In KL, they are being sold under the label, Bagatelle.<br /><br />Piroon started making bags five years ago. His interest was sparked by his love for semi-precious stones. The leather was more like a canvas for him to play with the gems.<br /><br />"It started when a friend in Hong Kong, who owns a gallery that sells jewellery, asked me to design some pieces. He said why not think up something different, so I ended up putting precious stones on bags. So the concept is more like semi-precious stones on good leather," he says during an interview in Bangkok.<br /><br />"I have two lines, Seasonal and Classic. The Seasonal's first batch has only 15 bags. If they sell well, I'll make 30. The maximum number for each style is 50, and only two for each country.<br /><br />However for my Classic line, I won't make more than 30 pieces. I also custom make pieces for my clients in Bangkok who tell me what they want."<br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTuZGucLs4LvuwqwDsapleO4OoA1wEQK_HzFlWSwKWk-t1ftqbKdmJ7VPf39PdQhdEnw9h7McPE2_F7XJVjxKi4VbYOyBIDtzKGk-YQuur83fCOkGdpj4OWIFj9G0DMSdxwYHI8osiC1Vq/s1600-h/bagatelle2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTuZGucLs4LvuwqwDsapleO4OoA1wEQK_HzFlWSwKWk-t1ftqbKdmJ7VPf39PdQhdEnw9h7McPE2_F7XJVjxKi4VbYOyBIDtzKGk-YQuur83fCOkGdpj4OWIFj9G0DMSdxwYHI8osiC1Vq/s400/bagatelle2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5233547239637902114" /></a><span style="font-style:italic;">[The Ibiza bag, perfect for parties]</span><br /><br /><br /><br /> Piroon gets his ideas from his travels; this season he was inspired by Spain, so the main colours are red and green.<br /><br />His collections initially comprised clutch bags because he thinks they are sexy.<br /><br />"But now I have moved to other bags. This Fall/Winter I'm using onyx, pearls, smoky quartz, tiger eyes and green jade. For Spring 2008, I am looking at corals and turquoise. Gold is the colour this year but silver is also popular, so I have chosen pewter. I like exotic skins, and I like amethysts and smoky quartz."<br /><br />Piroon doesn't seem concerned with making very practical bags as most designs offer little room to hold things and yet are rather heavy. But there's no mistaking their wow factor. Carry one and you can expect attention. A Bagatelle is so well embellished, it could be the only accessory you need for the evening.<br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4jCX0JXQcuHHvf8OnfhwM7mo0NZmiVE_eF-VX_lG5SRDIq4ut_Lt7MSutRt_ayFTp2ojzJZT3nfVQzaWYIKEf8QTM7CrZ2dAv0dy7uieSlLKe2nIFXwwwcYj39JhPO6dESVDRWeyJ8l3b/s1600-h/bagatelle3.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4jCX0JXQcuHHvf8OnfhwM7mo0NZmiVE_eF-VX_lG5SRDIq4ut_Lt7MSutRt_ayFTp2ojzJZT3nfVQzaWYIKEf8QTM7CrZ2dAv0dy7uieSlLKe2nIFXwwwcYj39JhPO6dESVDRWeyJ8l3b/s400/bagatelle3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5233547935069904498" /></a><span style="font-style:italic;">[Piroon Wacharamontri calls his creations jewellery bags]</span><br /><br /><br /><br /> Not surprisingly, Piroon says his customers are mainly in their 30s and older, as he believes you need to attain a certain level of sophistication to appreciate his bags.<br /><br />"I don't like the word 'fashion', I prefer 'style'. Why don't you have your own style, be different. I call my bags jewellery bags."<br /><br />What's interesting about these bags is that the stones are so beautiful that you feel like taking them off the bags and wearing them as jewellery. In fact, Piroon, says he has designed handbags where you can take the "handle" off and wear it as a necklace!<br /><br />Although his bags are a hobby, Piroon does have his eye on expanding further: "I'm looking forward to distributing the bags in more countries, but in limited pieces. I don't want everyone carrying the same bag. I'd also like to design a home collection, I used to design candles with semi precious stones. Now I'm looking at the business aspect, so one thing I'd like to see is my bags being sold all over the world!"<br /><br /><span style="font-style:italic;">*Bagatelle's Fall/Winter 2007 range, and Classic line are available at Tang & Co, Tang's, Pavilion, KL.

Whats more, you're looking at a 20% off discount for a seasonal piece that you'll never see again if you don't get your hands on it. <br /><br />The Fendi bronze croc embossed linen mini 'Chef' baguette retails at $508.00 and is obtainable at <a href="http://www.bluefly.com">Bluefly</a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540654027862139469.post-23138054240200598602007-05-22T20:07:00.000+08:002007-05-22T11:49:47.548+08:00Bulgari Cocktail Bag<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnQY5kr51VMmdxT4w1zNrOGhAnrnDbEfG7R8O7hojcnsVLN6KA15FQar36lybR5CXaMzSonI6ogkCcIHNWj7ti0VUYDVRMuqv_AFfvxxjnlu147V4WkI-2ZmaypVvnin2HWvFa-4nXQBY/s1600-h/Bulgari+Cocktail+Bag.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnQY5kr51VMmdxT4w1zNrOGhAnrnDbEfG7R8O7hojcnsVLN6KA15FQar36lybR5CXaMzSonI6ogkCcIHNWj7ti0VUYDVRMuqv_AFfvxxjnlu147V4WkI-2ZmaypVvnin2HWvFa-4nXQBY/s400/Bulgari+Cocktail+Bag.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5066242516875680978" /></a><br /><br />If you're looking for a Cocktail or Evening Bag to go with your LBD, then this would be it. The reason for my saying this is because this bag is so unique (from the Deep Fuschia colour to the Details and design of the bag) that if worn with anything other than an LBD, your bag will not be getting the attention it very well deserves. What I'm trying to say is, with such a special bag like this, it needs to stand out, and what better way than against a black canvas (hence your LBD)? Made from Ibisco and Python Velvet with Gold details, this Cocktail Frame Bag by Bulgari is definitely a conversation piece and is, in Bagaholic Babe's opinion, deserves to be called a 'Classic', in the same league with the Chanel 2.55. If Fuschia is not the colour for you, this Cocktail Frame Bag is available in other colours and materials.

Slightly bigger and longer than Chanel's Classic 2.55, whether you're young or more mature, it's definitely a timeless, elegant bag that you can use over and over again throughout the years, and when the time comes, you can even hand it down to your children! And yes, by that time, it'll probably be under Chanel's Vintage Category, worth a gazillion times more than its price tag - $14,950! So it's definitely an investment!

Testoni 'Turtle Basket' Bag<br /><br />If you BagAddicts are wondering why I'd chosen to feature this, it's because of it's unusual and unique shape. For those of you who aren't in the know, A. Testoni is an established Italian leather goods brand. The Structured 'Turtle Basket' Bag comes in Hobo shape as well and in other colours like Black, Green, and Orange. Part of A.Testoni's 'Classic' range, like the Chanel 2.55, this bag never goes out of style because they always have it in their store as part of their evergreen collection. And I guess 'Turtle' makes sense because if you take away the dual leather handles and flip it over, it's the same shape as the Turtle's shell! With the structured leather forming a 'frame' of sorts on the outside, the interior is a gusset pouch with topzip closure. Get this unique bag for $1533.95 from <a href="http://couture.zappos.com"> Zappos Couture </a href>. You can view the 'Turtle' Hobo there too..

If you don't like the metallic silver, it comes in black too, and also in the form of a clutch bag. The embellishments on the bag look like various Chanel-themed pins and/or brooches that have been attached to the bag. The Result.....a younger more funky version of the Classic 2.55! Bagholic Babe was never a fan of the 2.55 because it tends to look a bit mature, but she's LOVING this funky new versioN! ;) *winks*Bagaholic Babehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07544638027588443348noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540654027862139469.post-59241200177449805702007-01-02T13:17:00.000+08:002007-01-09T08:38:00.204+08:00New Chanel 2.55!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgj2Gnrn_i-MzJRNyQDl0qutoFixHQE_dfHJnH6lAxZ9GMMWsidO-4cJeABocPAjAn1DD59hAfvsqmlZJL6Fza47jvXvHEfI-yQPXSF_1FwFW_0j0cuhwNwPTfZiRrIu004cWuTx9ezG0Q/s1600-h/Chanel+Gold+Metallic+.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgj2Gnrn_i-MzJRNyQDl0qutoFixHQE_dfHJnH6lAxZ9GMMWsidO-4cJeABocPAjAn1DD59hAfvsqmlZJL6Fza47jvXvHEfI-yQPXSF_1FwFW_0j0cuhwNwPTfZiRrIu004cWuTx9ezG0Q/s320/Chanel+Gold+Metallic+.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5015297975833867778" /></a>Chanel 2.55 in Metallic Gold<br /><br />(Image from Style.com)<br /><br />New Chanel 2.55 in Metallic Gold Croc (non-quilted) from the Spring-Summer 2007 Collection. Chanel seems to be doing a lot of Metallic exotics on their Classic 2.55's this Spring-Summer 2007 -- they also have the Python Metallic Gold and Silver Quilted 2.55 (sorry no picture available for that one!) Hmm...there seems to be a trend here. Perhaps Chanel is moving away from its Classic Lambskin Look for the 2.55 range and is instead evolving the 2.55 into Exotics?Bagaholic Babehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07544638027588443348noreply@blogger.com0
