Chanel Tribute 2013 - Review

The tribute season of the year starts with Chanel as usual...and boy I must say, it was quite a mediocre collection. To be honest, I have never been a fan of Chanel Tribute since season two, and this one is no exception too. The fact that they changed the highly-anticipated lego clutches into tote bags is beyond unacceptable, it instantly killed my mood and i am pretty much disappointed. What a buzzkiller :(

However, after cooling down a bit and reviewing the collection back, it wasn't really that bad. They are variety of items instead of one particular theme, there are each for every one of us, they look minimalistically clean, and the items are great to style as well. Plus, there are handful of jewellery pieces to choose from too, which I totally love as they did not differ much from the real collection.

The shoes and bags department is quite a disappointment from the collection. I only love the pearl flats and that's it, as the rest of the shoes seem cheap. As for the bags, the so-called "Lego totes" are totally out, and the rest are only meh. The prices for the bags are quite hefty too, so I put the bags in my KIV list, in case I have extra sd to spend.

So like usual, these are my Top 5 items that I like from the store, sans jewelleries obviously as I love them all haha.



1. Duchess Bolero - 25sd
2. Classic Chanel Tribute Blouse - 20sd
3. Beaded Origami Top - 18sd
4. Tahitian Pearl Dress - 40sd
5. Tweed Coco Dress - 40sd

Honourable mentions: Pearl Drop Dress, Origami Chiffon Dress, Pearl Chanel Flats

So here are how I styled them. I tried to make them as minimal as possible.



So in conclusion, I think the collection was okay, with few strong misses, especially with the whole Lego clutches situation. Other than that, I think the collection was fine, there is something for each one of us.

So how about you?

Till the next tribute, later XOXO.
