"It's the most wonderful time of the year...."
For Christmas 2015, I wanted a Chanel handbag. To be specific, a medium black classic flap bag with GHW. Boyfriend wasn't too keen on this idea at first after when he found out how much these bags go for. But he finally gave in....anything to make his baby happy, right!!?? ;) So honeybabe and I went to this Chanel at The Wynn after being snubbed and ignored at the Chanel at the Bellagio a month ago. Every SA looked friendly and offered us beverages.
A very nice gentleman by the name J.P who's been with the company for 20 years assisted us. He was very knowledgeable about the brand and my handbag. Great customer service...he was patient when I kept on going back and forth from caviar versus lambskin. (In the end, I decided with the lambskin. Yes....I know the material is delicate as hell and I would have to baby the sh*t out of it....but in the end, if we are going to be dropping top dollars for a luxury item, I would want the best of the best.)
I called a week prior to make sure they have my handbag in stock with it being the holiday season and all. JP was nice enough to hold a few for me to look at. When I went to the store, they just got shipment in and my handbags were fresh out of the box! Glad I had a few to choose from though because one had a few scratches inside the purse. So word of advice: CHECK AND INSPECT YOUR HANDBAG THROUGHLY. Go TSA on your bag if you have to. You don't want to go home and later find out there's some dents or scratches after dropping $$$$$.
I don't know what's more fun: selecting the handbag or watching JP package my Christmas present. I was in awe. The way he had specific steps to put the tissue paper in....angle it like this, fold it like that. He added the Chanel ribbon and her signature Camellia (silver holiday edition instead of the usual white ones) to my gift box AND outside the bag. I'm telling you....the packaging is just GOREGOUS!!! I had the biggest smile walking out of this store!! =)
There are only 3 Chanel stores located in this city: Bellagio, Encore and here at The Wynn. And I believe this one is the biggest of them all. Happy Shopping!!!
