Red, White & Metallic Chanel~*

No..no..no..not red, white and blue for me this year. How was your 4th of July weekend for fellow bloggers in the U.S.? I hope you all had a great time with your family and fun shopping trips. Mine did not turn out the way I dreamt of but that was to be expected. How can one relax with a two year old, right? I live and learn but I had a quality time with my daugther and tantrum-free weekend. That's ALL I ever ask for these days, not an alone time, not a shopping trip and not another Chanel. All I want is her sweet love, my sanity and peace...Amen.

Bag: Chanel Mini Classic Flap

After four trips and countless indecisive hours wandering in the wonder world of Chanel back in May, my beloved husband makes sure that I use this bag to the best of my ability and as often as I can. He encourages me to bring it out EVERY occasion (except the trips to grocery store and alike) we go out and get the bang for our hard earned bucks. Chanel is a classic and I have no regret that I made this unusual choice for my first one. I personally like something with a modern twist, this metallic finish gives just what I want and I think it suits my personality somehow. My clothing style is feminine but I have that sassy side as well.

This mini classic flap still is going to be a timeless piece, at least that’s what I tell myself. The good thing is I am not afraid to use it as I thought I would be. With it being lambskin, I just have to be careful but not to the point where I keep it in its dust bag forever. One thing though, I will definitely buy a bigger bag for my second. I am not a light carrier to begin with so this bag is a bit of a challenge when transferred items. Heck, my wallet is about the size of this bag.
