Chanel Limited Edition Lucky Charms Handbag: Trash or Treasure?
Utter the words “Limited Edition” and some women go absolutely bonkers (and not in the fun way!). In the case of the Chanel Lucky Charms Handbag, I have a few choice words to convey. This LE quilted calfskin leather flap handbag is the most unappealing, distracting pile of *%#@ I’ve ever laid eyes on (it’s also completely sold out!).
Touted as a true collector’s piece, the ‘Lucky Charms’, measuring the classic flapbag dimensions of 9.5 x 6.5 x 3, features the signature Chanel chain-link shoulder strap (worn single or doubled-up), gunmetal-hued silver hardware, foldover flap with turn-lock closure and underside zip pocket, rear patch pocket, leather-lined interior foldover flap with magnetic snap closure, front patch pocket, and main compartment with interior slip pockets. So far, so good. Unfortunately, the fun comes to an end when you’re bombarded with a myriad of Chanel “charms” that adorn every nook and cranny of this hag bag’s exterior. It looks like something I would have made during an afternoon crafts lesson at Michaels. It’s the classic Chanel bag on crack!
Ladies, you can plainly see my take on this thing, but I want to hear from all of you. At a whopping $7000, is the Chanel LE Lucky Charms Handbag trash or treasure?
