VINTAGE CHANEL STUFF FOR UNDER 500 EUROS. BAM!
Chanel, who hasn't become big with it?
Okay, that made no sense, but with a regular opening line, you can't make it as a blogger these days. Anyway, I had no Chanel when I was young. In fact; I only got my very first brand thing when I was twelve. A T-shirt from Naf Naf to be precise, because hey: they were on sale at a pop-up shop in Alkmaar for just (drumroll) twenty-five guilders. Yes, I remember it well. IT'S ETCHED IN MY MEMORY CAN YOU IMAGINE WHAT A CRAPPY CHILDHOOD. But anyway, what I want to say is this: in the end, we all work towards one thing in life, and that is Chanel.
And that while (so) not everyone has the money for a new Chanel item. I certainly don't at the moment.. The apple apparently doesn't fall far from the tree. However, I am smart, I can't be caught off guard, my ways are inscrutable and I don't give up. Oh, and there's no mountain too high and no bridge too far and no sea too deep. So that's why I went online looking for the coolest vintage Chanel stuff for under 500 euros. And I admit: a few items above that amount. Just to drool over or to save hard for. Here they come.
1. This necklace. You want this necklace around your neck and you want it now. It doesn't matter what else you're wearing, it looks like you come from Paris and that's cool.
2. These earrings. You want these earrings in your ears and you want them now. It doesn't matter what else you're wearing, it looks like you come from Paris and that's cool. Sorry if I'm repeating myself.
3. A Chanel bag for under a hundred euros, it can't get crazier! Sure, it's a summer model, but then you just have to wait a little longer (freaking long). Or maybe you're going on vacation to a Canary Island. Well, then I say: lucky you. It can of course be put into practice immediately!
4. These shoes must of course come with you if you're going on vacation to a Canary Island. And otherwise, they're ready for the first best spring day. That spring day will be FANTASTIC with these shoes on.
5. Look, these pants you might need to understand a bit, but come on: just try your best and you'll get what I mean. These are those other nineties. Here we don't see the grungy nineties (although you can definitely style it that way). No, these are the classic nineties! These are the frumpy, floral nineties! What a delight. What a must-have.
6. For when you have a credit card. Personally, I don't have a credit card otherwise things would be a mess within a week.
7. What is this? A caviar leather wallet? I say: no idea what caviar leather is? But it seems to me that you should have something like that.
And then still in the somewhat higher price category:
8. The model may be a bit sixties, but the pied de poule print is an absolute YES.
9. What a delightful seventies situation. This bag is undoubtedly sublime with a seventies outfit. You know: an outfit consisting of a brown suede jacket with a belt, a chic pair of wide-legged pants, and a nice white blouse. Hang this bag over your shoulder and damn, you're an even bigger hit than you already were.
10. Meet the bag that you must have over your shoulder this holiday season. I say: with this bag, no party is boring, dull, or horror, because you can always go kissing with your bag. Also nice.
11. The grand finale! And what a one. Straight from the eighties, a prime example of 'have I got that for you'. And recently completely refurbished in the Chanel boutique. Well found, huh? No thanks, really.
Goodbye, you filthy animals.
