The Ice Cube by Chanel

I went to the Chanel Resort trunk show last week and was impressed yet again over the many creative incarnations they manage come up with each season of the classic 2.55 bag. There were so many great bags to choose from but the "Ice Cube" caught our eye because it's so different and fun (okay, we really picked it because we loved the name)! (My assistant of the day was my beautiful friend Christine Handy who patiently took notes on style names and prices on all the bags I liked. We had a lunch and shop date but ended up working with no lunch. Thanks honey, I owe you one! My friends all know they may be called into action at a moment's notice and they all comply without complaint!)

Made of clear vinyl "cubes" placed on metallic lambskin leather to resemble the iconic Chanel quilting, the "Ice Cube" manages to maintain the classic flavor of the 2.55 bag while being completely modern and charming. On any other bag the look risks being absurd and tacky but on Chanel, it works. For Chanel addicts who crave something young and fun, the "Ice Cube" is it! The price is also budget friendly (for a Chanel bag that is!) at $1,650. Call Alexis, our fave Chanel SA at 214-520-1055 to order.
