Thread: Chanel Quilted Pleated Tote

One of the latest arrivals to Bag Borrow or Steals' “What’s New” page, is this gorgeous quilted pleated tote by Chanel. Personally, I am a total fan of Chanel. I admire each and every piece they produce, whether they’re awkwardly designed or yet another timeless piece of luxury. Take this tote for example; although its design isn’t exactly my taste, I seriously can’t dislike it. I admire the heavy quilted leather pattern found throughout the bag, and the very enhanced pleat adds a great touch of character to the bag. Maybe if this bags silhouette wasn’t so round or “basket” shaped, I would find more interest in it. The double rounded shoulder straps seem a bit boring as well; I definitely prefer chained Chanel straps a lot more. I can’t give you a precise retail value of this handbag, but your definitely looking in the two thousands, or so. If I had a couple of “K’s” to spend on a brand new Chanel bag, I would definitely go for a quilted leather flap bag instead, not so much this one. What do you ladies think of Chanel's pleated tote, do you like it?

The tote is okay... but yeah, it sorta looks like an Easter Basket.

So did you rent that bag Viva?

no... I've never tried BBoS... too expensive, imo.

^yeah, they're overly priced. for what it costs to rent their bags, i could just save and buy the bag.

this tote is nice. but i agree - i'd rather have a classic flap!!!

i think it's called the in & out tote

Hmm.. I love the color.. But theres just something not quite me about it and i cant tell what... Most probably the price tag.
