Has any one seen the latest tote bag from Chanel It's a gas.At first glance, you might think these women are carrying trash bags. Well, they’re not. It’s the latest Chanel plastic carryall, about $1,000, with chain handles and a signature double-C charm. A few are in leather, and, one, below, is a rare satin one. The bag, first spotted in Paris last month, above, is the superstatus bag carried by shoppers on Madison and Fifth Avenues. There is a waiting list of months to buy 0ne. trying to send picture but I think it will be to big

Nope, not really. I admit to like other things related to fashion but I am not the type of person who buys the latest fashion trend just because it's in even if it doesn't suit me. Besides, I'm very practical so I only buy things that are comfortable, at a low price but with good quality. ^^

No, I haven't. And I am not a slave to fashion and I am not a brand guy.
If its cloths or shoes, I buy what is comfortable to me and not what brand it is. Quality matters not the brand name associated with it.

I am not a slave to fashion and never have been, and it has always surprised me that some people pay a fortune for something that is often quite trashy looking. More money than sense. LOL
If they can afford to follow fashion, that is their choice but often the people who buy these things really cannot afford it. And as for waiting months for a bag, that is beyond my comprehension. Oh well, to each his own.

honestly, i have no idea what fashion really is. i dont wear designer clothes or name brands...in fact, i dont think i even know what name brands are good or what name brand are what just by looking at the item. sometimes i try to mimic what i see the other girls wearing on the streets here because i guess that its european fashion, but i always feel like i look like an idiot. i usually just stick to basic colors and clothes that are comfortable. i could never wear uncomfortable shoes just because they are fashionable.

I hate the term "Fashion". I wear what I feel like wearing.

I love to be in style and I am into fashion but I dont like something just because it is popular. If I dont like it I wont get it just because thats what is in style.
