    All good points. I’m not gonna lie, I wanted to collect the cf in many colors. I ended up starting too late and stopped after 2. I don’t want to pay today’s price for it. You have the best collection, I think it’s smart to enjoy what you have, you have so many nice colors. 💕

    Thanks. I have similar experience with Chanel. The last bag I bought was 2020 and I don't have a CA anymore. I have enough bags to use and I don't go out that much now as I work a lot more at home. The price increase is definitely one reason I stopped buying. Also, I prefer Karl's design more, so I cherish my old bags but don't have motivation to get new ones.

    Your space could use more decor. You do have a stunning bag collection and gorgeous clothes. I agree with everything you said though. Enough is enough. I am a collector of many things but I pride myself on knowing when to stop. I have over done it on a number of things like perfume and I scaled down my collection letting my daughter sell my excess for me. But it is good to know when to stop and not fall into the trap of buying to buy.

    After so many Chanel bags I realise I still only love classic flaps. The last one I got was last year a grey caviar. I wish I got it from 20c when it was still sgd 8000+. Nonetheless I stopped buying Chanel now too. Don't even feel like keeping track of the latest seasons anymore xoxoxo

    Sometimes I wonder where is the end to these brands' crazy price increases if they are doing it (multiple times) every year. Eventually won't they price out a huge portion of their current customers? I'd always wanted a classic flap but the price, the quality issues, the lack of stock and subpar customer service eventually made me spend my money elsewhere with other brands' products that provided me a good (or maybe better?) experience. I still like chanel's designs but I don't think it is worth the price it is at right now

    • @BlackandGoldStyle
      @BlackandGoldStyle  Před rokem

      Actually I never had any problem with Chanel’s quality, in a sense that the hardware never tarnished or the bag never broke. I wear some of my bags very often for so many years and they still look brand new (those in caviar leather). I am actually quite happy with the quality. The imperfections of some bags are definitely an issue. I bet they were amazing back in the 80s, they used 24k gold. I wish they kept those standards.
