M: My friend Lili just sent me this:
Even though it spoils the surprise, I found what I'm getting you for your birthday. Price is no object.

| Chanel Waist Pouch |
M: Do you remember Are You There God, It's Me, Margaret? This is kind of what I imagined sanitary napkin belts to look like.
A: Well! That is just the thing for discreetly carrying around some OB tampons. YOU NEVER KNOW.
M: So practical!
A: I'm really not sure how I've lived this long without it, to be honest.
M: It's truly one of a kind.
A: Basically a bargain at $1,540. I mean, you could only buy, like, nine pairs of really fancy jeans with that.
M: And none of those jeans would be mistaken for an antiquated sanitary napkin belt, so.
A: Exactly! That is a really important detail.
A: Wait. Why do I want an antiquated sanitary napkin belt again?
M: Because it's Chanel?
A: Right! This is my favorite part:
NOTE: This is an authentic vintage bag. Gentle wear reinforces the piece's authenticity.
M: Don't get crazy now. Gentle.
A: But, but, how does "gentle wear" translate to obviously authentic?
M: Better question: how do they have TWO of these treasures?
A: One for each of us! But seriously. TWO people were dumb enough to buy this thing new?
M: TWO! It's like finding two unicorns.
A: Two very unattractive, overpriced, unicorns.
M: That hold tampons.
A: But only the kind without applicators!
M: Environmental!
A: No thank you!
Too late.
ReplyDeleteSold OUT.
Ugh, I TOLD Marianne we shouldn't post this. Now everyone has one but us!
DeleteThat is because I bought them both for you two, SOOPRISE!
ReplyDeleteI'd obviously get one but I'd prefer one in puce or chartreuse. Obviously.
ReplyDeleteHow did I miss this post? I guess I'm just coming on here every day with the same comment: you guys make me laugh.
ReplyDeleteI could never figure out the sanitary napkin belt either, when reading about it. Now I know.
