Unless they're now faking Outlet or Employee pieces, this is real. The interior tag with the G and the R indicate it's not a direct boutique purchase but right to Outlet or employee. That could explain why the stitching and even the front tag, aren't perfect.

I love it because it reminds me of my grandmother who wore it but I myself, can't wear it. Smells horrible on me.

Agree. It's a great brand and not everyone wants to, or can afford, a Rolex or GS or Cartier. Wear what YOU like.

Is the pier by the Asian restaurant gone? In pic 2, it looks like that is right by the center bar area. Glad you're all safe though!

Based on my downvotes others disagree. Lol.

They're the cutest and very curious. They were at a resort in Mexico and they'd just come up and steal food from our little table by the pool. Hilarious!

The pink sandals are actually just D&G but the sneakers next to them are Christian Louboutin Viera style from Viva Las Vegas capsule. Super fun and colorful! Ironically, some Hermès shoes are next on my list to buy though!

Your dad ruined the marriage, not you. You simply presented the information to your stepmother to do whatever with it. NTA.

For once, I am not encouraging and here's why. While it's stunning, it's canvas and not coated. I bought a similar one from the Hacker collection and knew I'd have to baby it. It's a showstopper but even a small amount of white canvas had me say, nope and I exchanged it. All that being said, if you baby your bags, get it. All the protectant in the world couldn't convince me to carry white or light colored canvas lux bag.

ETA: I'm assuming based on one I bought, and their other similar ones, it's not coated. If this one is, go for ot.

OK so that's what I was thinking when I said maybe pics/video campaigns are different. That makes sense. Thanks.

And do their tags say "produced by Chanel"? Seems odd like something you'd see on let's say, a partnership, ever it was produced by then in conjunction with anger brand. Obviously, I could be wrong.

This! Or if you don't call ahead, some have blocks/limits on single purchases. Unless it's Amex and then we let you spend however you want. Lol.

Thanks! And maybe try reselling your bag on one of other resale sites!

I buy cheap tops. I won't spend money on a top. Most are from Target or Amazon. My jeans are middle of the road for pricing- $100 or less. My money goes to shoes, bags and experiences. If I want to try a new makeup color for eyes, I'll buy cheap to see if I even like it before committing to a better brand. Old Navy for shorts. Basically, mix and match and find cheap things that fit you well and splurge on things that will last forever. Same with beauty stuff. I love $5 Essence mascara but wear Chanel lip stuff.

Ugh. This makes me sad. I have found some bags and better deals on there but am scared to pull the trigger. I've had no issue with Fashionphile but I was just looking at some items on Rebag.

I do love those! They're really comfortable too. I use Flat Socks inserts to keep the foot bed nice since I wear them without socks.

No problem. And I agree. I'm not spending $800 on some Gucci tee shirt but I'll spend that on shoes. You can always look at places lounge Fashionphile for shoes too. I missed the chance to buy my black boots before they were gone from JC direct and I found a brand new pair on there. Obviously cheaper too so a total win!
