CLASSIC WITH AN EDGE, LITERALLY

A classic 1980s Chanel 2.55 bag is always desirable, but we like the flawless one featured below as its a little more "edgy" than your standard Chanel shoulder bag. The bag is a classic quilted diamond leather that is trimmed (i.e., edgy!) made of an inch-plus of smooth leather that frames the bag in a very elegant and fresh juxtaposition. The bag is both "Smooth Operator" and "Diamonds are Forever." We digress with our pop culture references and want to point out the impeccable condition of this bag that comes to you with its Chanel Identity Card, lacquer storage box, and flannel sleeper bag. The interior is wine leather and the shoulder strap measures around 46 inches from each gold ring at the top of the bag. The back of the bag has a little pocket for a BlackBerry or IPhone, too. Of course you can always buy a brand new 2.55, but wouldn't a connoisseur prefer the acquisition of a vintage and flawless 2.55...wtih a little edge?
