I dream Chanel Flap Bag - New Year, New Chanel 2014

2014 will be the year I finally become a part of the fabulous Chanel club.

This year, I want to show myself and the world that I have finally grown into a fashionable woman. Not that you can't be a fashionable woman without a Chanel on your arm, but I am proud to have worked hard until now to have saved enough money to be able to purchase my very first Chanel purse. Like many woman, I have changed my look and sense of style over the years, and have always wanted to develop a sophisticated style filled with designers like Chanel, Goyard, Prada, LV, Celine, and so much more. With my small millennial paycheck, I have roamed around NYC hunting for bargains at consignment shops, and used to be able to afford to only shop at places with price tags available at stores like Forever 21 or Charlotte Russe. Even with my current salary, I am not rich, but, I have disciplined myself enough to save a little at a time for the things I want. I want to show you some of the bags I have been eyeballing now that I am in the market for the perfect Chanel and, maybe even persuade you to get one too!

Top 10 Reasons I want to buy a Chanel bag:

1. Because I want to #cantstopwontstop
2. Because the same bag I get this year will cost more next year #winning
3. Owning one will help me feel even more fabulous, thereafter act more fabulous #treatyoself
4. Ubiquity is not always a bad thing. Also, even if most people are culturally aware of Chanel purses, they are still price-prohibitive for many people #imnohipster
5. Caviar Leather will live longer than I will #longlivechanel
6. Whether you are the Grunge goddess or Daddy's Princess, Chanel provides more style choices now than ever #endlessoptions
7. You don't have to buy a new one at full retail value. There are tons of consignment shops in NYC and online that carry large collections of Vintage Chanel purses #shopvintage

8. Because I love Rihanna and Cara Delevingne #shinebrightlikeadiamond
9. Because I want to dress for the life I want, not the one I live #dreambig #canttakeyourmoneysixfeetunder
10. Because even if I bought another designer's creation, I would still be lusting after my very own Chanel. #irreplaceable
