My Very First Chanel - Sensible Stylista

My Very First Chanel

Soooo I have some exciting news.  Ok maybe it's not THAT exciting, but it's exciting for me, haha.  I bought my FIRST Chanel bag a couple weeks ago!  ERMERGERD, I'm SO poor but so happy *grins*  Anywho, today's look is all about layers.  I started with a chic but simple top from Madewell.  I bought it years ago!  Love their sales so much.  I've found so many awesome deals there - an extra 50% off on the lowest price with an ADDITIONAL student discount?  Oh hell yes.
 My top sans jacket and scarf...
...and a full body shot for you guys!  I know shiny over-the-knee boots can be kinda dominatrix-y (yeah, just made that word up, NBD) but I thought they looked good with today's "conservative" LOTD.  What do you guys think? Yay or nay?
AHHH!  My bag *grins* LOVE this design.  I still can't believe I actually own a Chanel.  Probably not the most "sensible" splurge, but hey, every woman should have a solid investment bag.

A closer look at my boots from Chinese Laundry.  I got them on sale at DSW years ago!

Boots:  Chinese Laundry - old
Skirt:  c/o Charlotte Russe ($9.99)
Scarf:  Ann Taylor Factory Outlet
Sweatshirt:  Madewell - old
Jacket:  American Rag - old
Bag:  Chanel

  7. Congrats! Can you comment briefly about where you bought it, how your experience was (were the sales people nice there), and how you decided on the Boy bag with silver hardware (as opposed to other designs)? Thanks!

    1. Of course! I went to Tysons Corner in VA. They were VERY nice. I chose this bag because of it's edgy yet sophisticated design. I don't think they actually had it in gold hardware?
