Why is it that we are always craving for something we cannot have so easily? Doesn’t matter whether it’s a handsome guy (I wonder where all those princes are, but that’s a different story), a specific jeans, SHOES (I know, I know) or a specific bag???
Is it because it’s a challenge for us? Or is it because we do not lose the interest so fast in the specific item we are craving for?
To be honest with you – I don’t know… But the thing about me is that I always want the stuff I cannot get. This time it was the Céline Box Bag. When I first saw this bag I did not show much interest in it. I’m note sure why – maybe because of the shape. But then it was like I got struck by lightning. I needed it – immediately.
But where to get it? The challenge was not only to find a Céline Box Bag but THE Céline Box Bag – a red one. If you spent a lot of money on a specific bag you of course would like to have your dream bag in the color you adore. For me it was red, because I haven’t had a red bag so far.
So I started to look for it – everywhere in the world. Due to my job I get to travel a lot, but well I did not find it. Oh sorry, I found it in China but it was like 800 Euro more than here in Europe – I know I’m crazy but I’m really not that crazy.
A couple of weeks ago I challenged myself again and decided to call every Céline store in Germany, France and Switzerland. 2nd phone call and I was successful. I could not believe that luck was on my side after having stalked all the shops. The Céline store in Paris, Rue Grenelle had it. Since I received it – I love it. You can wear it with a casual outfit like this one or with an elegant outfit – the festive season is around the corner 🙂
I hope you like the bag and the outfit!

Your Box is so gorgeous! I for myself am after a black one, since I’m boring and always go for black in everything. 🙂
So, you found your Box in Paris by telephone call and you went there by yourself to pick it up? Or are you saying they do ship to their customers?
