You see ’em pop up here and there, and like, sometimes they’re that super vibrant, almost electric green, and other times they’re a more subdued, foresty kind of green. I saw one described as “pistachio to lime to a deep forest shade” and honestly? That’s spot on. They got a green for *every* season, which is kinda cool.
I was just poking around online (as you do), and saw a bunch of stuff. Like this Cruise 2024/25 Chanel 22 Mini Handbag. Metallic calfskin? Green? It sounds… interesting. $5,500 interesting, apparently! I mean, I’m not gonna lie, I’m broke college student so I can’t afford it. But it’s nice to look at it, I guess. Makes you wonder what kind of marine reverie they’re going for, ya know?
And then there’s the vintage stuff. You can find some seriously gorgeous, uh, “pre-loved” green Chanel handbags on sites like Vestiaire Collective and 1stDibs. I mean, “pre-loved” is just fancy talk for “second-hand,” but hey, if it gets me a Chanel bag for a little less, I’m all for it. Plus, buying vintage is like, good for the planet, or something?
Okay, and have you *seen* the lambskin ones? Ugh, they’re so soft. Like, I just wanna touch one. There’s this one, apparently, a “Lambskin Quilted Medium Double Flap in Green,” and it just sounds divine. But lambskin, man, it’s gotta be a pain to keep clean. I’d be terrified of spilling anything on it. Picture this: You buy a green Chanel bag for thousands of dollars, and then you accidentally drop a glob of marinara sauce on it. What a nightmare.
I guess that’s why some people go for the metallic ones, huh? Seems like those would be easier to wipe down.
What I really love about the green ones, though, is that they’re unexpected. Like, everyone expects a black or a beige Chanel bag. A green one? It’s a statement. It says, “Hey, I’m rich, but I also have *style*.” Or maybe it just says, “Hey, I really like the color green.” Who knows?
I saw something about Emily in Paris having a few Chanel bags – but I don’t watch that show, so I don’t know if she’s rocking the green. Maybe I should check it out just to see if she is. For research purposes, of course.
