Chanel

Why do people pay big bucks For something by Chanel? I realize that they’re selling to A wealthy clientele… But I really just don’t get it. Every pocketbook or such With that famous logo goes for What most folks would say too much. And by that, I’m talking thousands Just to own, what seems to me, Quite an ugly choice of purses With a fancy pedigree. Still, so many women want them And I really wish I knew What’s the root of their attraction, For I haven’t got a clue.

Dear Clueless in New York City, it isn't very pretty. To be so gauche and self involved is really oh so petty. To think of what good they could do with all that extra money. Sadly, there is really not a thing about it funny. :) Peace. :)

Very cynical write Ilene and I LOVE the humour here. Bet most people cant tell a fake from a genuine article - its pretty ugly and boring anyway LOL and even if i could afford designer gear i wouldn't bother anyway prefer to be an individual and be my own person. Hugs Jan xxx
