Chanel Spring 2007 Tweed Fringe Boucle Blazer

Ok, so I had a bet going with my BFF. She said that a blazer and a jacket were not always synonymous items of clothing. I said, no way jose. Turns out the little minx was right. A blazer is in fact a type of jacket, often resembling a suit jacket except that a blazer often has patch pockets with no flaps and metal shank buttons. A jacket, on the other hand, is not a blazer. Go fig. I owe her a coke. Blazer or jacket, i totally heart this little number de Chanel. From their Spring 2007 collection, this bee-yoo-ti-ful blazer also sports signature fringe detailing at the lapels, cuffs and edges. New With Tags & Retailed in stores for $3400. In a size 42. Priced at Decadestwo for $2000. Who loves like we do, ladies? For further information or to purchase, please contact: thegang@decadestwo.com
