Chanel L.A. Bag

Hot from the Chanel Cruise 2008 collection, a range of handbags are making their way to the boutiques. The recent and upcoming price increases for Chanel handbags is exorbitant, but Chanel fans think it is worth it. As the brand continues to evolve, their best selling handbag is their classic and timeless flap bag. A hot bag from their Cruise 2008 collection is the Chanel L.A. Bag which sports the letters LA in red across this tote with chain handle. The bag is loved by many Chanel fans already and will start to pop up in boutiques soon. $1450 through your Chanel boutique or inquire through Nordstrom Seattle.

    I love Chanel, but this is not my style. Having been born and raised in New York, I would never wear this bag.

        Please don’t post links to faux bag sites here. it’s disrespectful, and tells me that you’re underestimating our intelligence.

      Personnally, i dnt think Lagerfeld chose the Los Angeles Initials for nothing. LA is a glamourous city full of stars artists, and fashionnistas:D i mean why not? We should be proud of his choice:D and the colors are amazing:)

    I think they should make a New York bag also. I love this bag, but like “Vienna” said, us new yorkers can’t be wearing an LA bag. lol

    I like the slouchiness, but Chanel chain straps always look thin and uncomfortable, to me and I would never carry a bag that spelled out the name of the brand so blatantly.

    I also don’t really see the attraction of having the name of a city emblazoned in huge red letters across one’s bag, either. :?:

    For some reason, I think it looks too cheap to be Chanel. Just my opinion, though.

    I live in LA and would not carry this bag. It’s too slouchy and I don’t like the spelled out “CHANEL”. I wish they’d made an “LA bag” that was a bit classier. I would have bought one since I do love LA :grin:
    On second thought, though, I MIGHT get it just because I DO live in LA. When will Chanel ever make another LA bag…let me get my car keys……

    I went to the Chanel boutique with the intent to purchase this bag. But when I held the bag I really didn’t like it very much- the feel is scratchy and somehow (oh I hate to say it!) feels cheap. It was a bit on the large and slouchy side, but I’m sure I would have gotten over those issues if not for the rough feel of the bag… I like that it says LA but I wish they had made it in leather. I didn’t buy one :neutral:

    I purchased the bag, I love the slouchiness of the bag, it is perfect for a casual chic look, that could also dress up a plain outfit for evening. But then I am a true Chanel fan and just about every bag she makes is a must have, that is if you can afford it.(and I am not from L.A. and it is still a great bag).

    Chanel does have a bag like this that is more structured and in leather. It is white with the red LA letters. It is very nice.

    i looooooove this bag! the fact thats its not bulky or stiff was the selling factor for me. it would be nice though to see other major cities represented, like ny.
