Yesterday I picked up my beautiful Chanel WOC (wallet on chain) in black caviar with SHW as I wanted a casual feel, hence the SHW. Originally I was on the wait list but in GHW thinking I'd never get the classic flap. 3 days later my wonderful SA Carol emailed and said they got a small flap shipment in (1 M/L flap which I bought and 3 Jumbo flaps). Needless to say, I figured I didn't need the WOC now that I got my holy grail!!! So I had her take me off. I'm still surprised I only had to wait 3 days after my inquiry about the flap to purchase it!! I've heard of people waiting months!!
Since then I bought the cute card case. As mentioned (I think) I was in the mall last Monday dropping off my Cartier medium tank watch and decided to go back on the WOC wait list as I wanted a cross body/casual bag. While I carry my flap to work sometimes it's too fancy. 3 days later I get the call! I had to pick the WOC up on Saturday as I left work early with a migrain and terrible abdominal pain which I'm thinking is a cyst on my left ovary :( The pain is less but I gotta take it easy... So I picked my WOC up September the 6th and since I arrived early to browse before my SA got in, I was given sparking water while I waited with a cute Chanel napkin I kept. My WOC is made in France like my flap, and my card holder in Spain, GST in Italy. My SA has helped me the past 6 weeks get all 4 Chanel pieces. She said I sure was lucky when it came to buying these items as most have to wait months!!! She said they expect the next shipment near Christmas.
Because I've spent $10,500 in the past 6 weeks on Chanel alone, I'm putting myself on a bag ban... While they're all paid off, no debt, I need to start saving. I'm content with my LV collection but I might buy the Emprinte cles that comes out late next month. Other than that I also feel Chanel content especially since I have all the classics. Love lamb skin but caviar is more durable. I would like a reissue 226 which has distressed lamb skin, a Cerf tote and a Boy, but those are another 5k each. I'm purse content!
