Glad I bought them the second I spotted them, because The Row Caden loafers are en route to selling out (especially in the exclusive dark brown color). They’ve already made their way onto rare-fashion scouting platform Sourcewhere’s radar.
I was thinking about Sourcewhere last night as I was scrolling The RealReal, contemplating **Chanel **bags on resale. When I ran into Sourcewhere’s founder Erica Wright in Paris this spring, just as the Blazy collection first dropped, her network was on fire grabbing up bags and shoes I wasn’t even able to get an SA to show me in the store (I have no pull there, I buy all my Chanel secondhand).
If you’re shopping for Blazy-Chanel, Sourcewhere is a good place to look. If you want a vintage piece from Blazy’s reference archive, there are a healthy handful of Karl-era Cerf Bags on TRR for under $3.5k—the Blazy Shopping Bag (resale price $12k) borrows its shape. This one’s down to $2,275. This one’s $2,200. I’ve ben seeing these out in the wild more lately, and now I know why. Also I just put it together that Chanel Cerf = channel surf? Maybe?
More out-of-order thoughts on fall bags:

canvas bagof them all—smugly large and unapologetically high-maintenance as far as canvas bags go, screams “someone bring me a convertible in which to throw this in the rear seat!” A lot of words for a couple panels of cotton and skinny straps that you’ll definitely stuff with 2+ hair tools for an overnight upstate trip
