chanel-large-flap-bagMy friend Jane went to Saks today to get the jumbo and to take a look at the maxi, but they said that Saks does not ever carry the maxi model and they were out of jumbos. So, she headed out to Chanel, looked at one in the lambskin and ordered the caviar, because they did not have anymore! The boutique just got them in yesterday and they are already sold out!!!

It is retailing for $2895 and the leather is the new treated caviar, which is much softer and pliable. It is about 2-3 inches wider and taller than the classic jumbo. The chain is a little shorter than the jumbo, but not significantly. The front flap is less scalloped than the other classic bags (it’s more straight). The Chanel logo is also a little bit bigger than the other classics. All in all, it still looks like a classic bag, but just really big. It is a nice alternative to a tote in terms of size.
It is my ultimate handbag dream to own a Chanel one day. But I just don’t see that happening any time soon because the prices are incredibly outrageous! I could pay two month’s rent with this purse! …maybe if I win the lottery some day, one can always dream…
