CHANEL METALLIC SYMBOLS FLAP BAG AND THE CHANEL PTT IS STILL ALIVE?Categories:Other Brands
There's something I need to talk to you about…
Actually there are two big things, one is wrapped around a story. But before all that, I want to thank Lolli – for all the details and pictures.
First things first, let us share with you a bag that you've probably never seen before. We did a little research on our own, this bag is called the 'Chanel Metallic Symbols Flap Bag' and it's now in store, for the Spring Summer 2014 Collection. Lolli sent us a message: 'Hi, is the CC Crave still available in London and the current price? Going there tomorrow for a week'.
The Chanel CC Crave Flap, the bag that has inherited the same elements like the Classic Flap Bag, a timeless piece that is so much cheaper. Which fashionista doesn't love that!
But anyway, we told Lolli about the availability and the price. (some of our members found the CC Crave in this season!)
A few days later, Lolli updated us her findings, she said: 'Thanks. I'm now in London but I cannot find it in Harrods or Selfridges. Bought the perfume bottle print medium instead'.
A perfect move, if Chanel doesn't have your bag in stock (this happens all the time!), then prepare yourself with a back-up plan. Lolli end up with a perfume bottle print flap bag, the original name is actually: 'Chanel Metallic Symbols Flap Bag'.
Then Lolli continued: 'It's not a clutch. It's similar to CC Crave but with embossed Chanel perfume bottle prints on the leather'.
Oh yes, as an addition, if you want the latest info about the Boy Chanel Quilted Flap Bag: 'My friend got the Boy Chanel quilted medium with rusty gold metal at £2990'.
Then Lolli told me one thing that literally froze my heart, I was surprised, stunned, amazed, jumping and….
She told me: 'By the way, the PTT is available at Heathrow Chanel but I didn't ask for the price'.
A little background information: The PTT is the Chanel Petite Timeless Tote, it was not as popular as the GST and the PST, but still it was one of the most coveted and affordable tote from Chanel. But we haven't heard about this bag for like two years or so.
So when Lolli informed me that she saw the Chanel Petite Timeless Tote, I was like: 'Nooooo, that can't be' (the same facial expression when your Chanel lambskin get scratched).
I wouldn't let my opportunity pass by, I need to dive into the head of Lolli. So I send her another email again: 'Lolli, are you sure you saw the PTT, because as far as we know it's discontinued'
Then she answered: 'I am very sure I saw the PTT at the Heathrow T3 Chanel store. There was beige and black. They are distinctive because of the zip and small tote size. There are lots of bags that came in last week in London. I was lucky. I wished I could get the PTT but I was out of luggage space'.
Okay, let's get back to the details first. The Chanel Metallic Symbols Flap Bag is crafted from calf leather and embossed with 'Chanel' symbols like the CC logo, the iconic perfume bottle, Chanel Camellia's, the number 5 and so on. The symbols will live on forever, which makes this bag a timeless piece.
The Chanel Metallic Symbols Flap Bag matches to anything that is linked to 'casual' – jeans, pants, tees, tops, when you go to work, shopping, evenings and so on.
There are two different colors and styles available: in metallic calfskin with silver hardware or in black calfskin with silver hardware.
The style code is: A92243
Size: 25 x 12 x 5 cm
Price: $2,800 USD or £1790 GBP before VAT (euro is almost the same)
Before you go, please like our Facebook page and share this post. Drop a comment if you got any question and if you saw the PTT too, let us know.
Oh yes one more thing, Lolli: 'There is a smaller one that looks like a clutch. Did not check the price though'.
About Heathrow T3 Airport: The Chanel boutique located there are generally cheaper because the VAT is not included yet. So you don't need to apply for tax-refund, which save you money because you don't need to pay the commission for processing tax-refund.
Heathrow T3 Airport don't stock iconic anymore, a few of them are: The Chanel Classic Flap Bags, the 2.55 reissue, The Quilted Boy Bags.

Chanel Metallic Iridescent Cruise 2016 Boy Bag ReviewCategories:Other Brands
Chanel Metallic Iridescent Cruise 2016 Rainbow Purple Boy Bag
It's been branded the mermaid bag by online fashion bloggers, due to its metallic sheen and oil slick appearance, but the Chanel Small Boy Bag in Metallic Iridescent is everything! I personally came across this bag a few days ago when I was checking out the Chanel Cruise 2016 collection on their website and I completely fell in love. The moment I saw the purple sheen and the iridescent hardware, my eyes were instantly drawn to its beauty. The purple sheen on the goat leather changes to a pearly green and blue as the light moves, while the chain itself is an iridescent rainbow of beauty, as is the lock closure and all its hardware. Combining these together definitely makes it mermaid appropriate, I think you would agree?
I'm not lucky enough to own this amazing bag, but a few people on The Purse Forum and on YouTube definitely are, so I have compiled their photos together as well as two video reviews of the Metallic Iridescent Boy Bag for you to check it out for yourself, all in one place, and decide whether or not you love it. One of the girls in the video said it's the most beautiful bag she has ever seen and couldn't stop staring at it. Are any of you lucky enough to own this beautiful bag yourself? I'd love for you to share your opinions on it too!
I've always been a fan of Chanel, owning one of their gorgeous Velvet Boy Bags in Bordeaux from last season and adoring their classics, but I have to say that the brand is definitely upping their game right now in terms of pushing the boundaries. I've always found the French fashion house sticks to seasonal pieces and isn't very daring, but in recent years, they have truly stepped outside their comfort zone and created bags which have been stunning, much like this metallic one here. It makes me excited to see what's to come from Chanel in seasons to come.
As this is impossible to find, buy a very similar Rebecca Minkoff version here.
Chanel Metallic Iridescent Boy Bag Video Reviews
If the Boy Bag is not your thing, it also comes in the Flap Bag as well! So there's a style for everyone! Check out the Chanel Small Flap Bag in Metallic Iridescent here. Isn't it beautiful? I'd love to know which bag you prefer though in this metallic purple, the Boy or the Flap? Let us here at Fashion Runway Blog know!

Considering how serious their injuries looked as they were getting helped off the Levi's Stadium field Sunday, Bronco reserves Lamin Barrow and Gerrell Robinson will take the results of their follow-up reports Monday.
Robinson, a tight end who spent the previous two seasons on practice squads with Arizona and the Broncos, has a sprained knee and will be out two weeks. Barrow, a rookie linebacker, has a bruised leg and may be able to practice on a limited basis Tuesday.
Both players suffered their injuries in the third quarter of the Broncos' 34-0 preseason win against the San Francisco 49ers. Barrow was hurt while making a tackle; Robinson while making a catch. Both were able to gingerly walk off the field but needed assistance from the trainer's staff.

Owen Sound pair enters NHL Draft as elite prospectsby Mike G. Morreale
Owen Sound Attack teammates Zach Nastasiuk and Chris Bigras aren't brothers, but it certainly seems like it considering the bond they've established on and off the ice over the past eight years.
The two began moving up the ranks together while playing pee-wee and bantam level hockey in the Barrie Colts system eight years ago.
They were ultimately chosen by Owen Sound in consecutive rounds of the Ontario Hockey League's 2011 priority selection draft and, most recently, were rated back-to-back on NHL Central Scouting's final ranking of the top draft-eligible North American skaters.
Nastasiuk, a 6-foot-1.25, 190-pound right wing, is No. 13 on NHL Central Scouting's final ranking of the top draft-eligible North American skaters. The second-highest-rated North American right wing and native of Barrie, Ont., had 20 goals, 20 assists in 62 regular-season games for Owen Sound in 2012-13. He chipped in with four goals and seven assists in 12 playoff games.
"Everywhere we go, it seems like you can't separate us," Nastasiuk told NHL.com. "We're on the same winter team, same summer team and now we're on the same OHL team. It's pretty special to go through all this with him."
Bigras, a 6-0.5, 211-pound defenseman, is No. 14 on Central's final ranking release -- the sixth highest-ranked defender. The native of Elmvale, Ont., had eight goals, 30 assists and a plus-35 rating in 68 regular-season games.
"It's neat … I grew up with him my whole life, so it's good to see him doing so well," Bigras told NHL.com. "I think just going through this, together, we were able to help each other out and push each other."
Nastasiuk was asked who he felt would be selected first among Attack teammates in the 2013 NHL Draft at Prudential Center in Newark, N.J.
"It really doesn't matter, but it'll probably be him," Nastasiuk said with a grin. "But no matter what happens and whenever he goes, I'll be thrilled to hear his name called."
The only time they've been matched against each other in eight years was last January at the Home Hardware Top Prospects Game in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
Nastasiuk and Bigras were roommates during their six-day stay at the 2013 NHL Scouting Combine at the Westin Bristol Place in Toronto. The odds of them being drafted by the same team are slim unless the Columbus Blue Jackets, Calgary Flames, Buffalo Sabres or Dallas Stars, who each have multiple picks in the first round, make it happen.
"He does something to contribute to a win every shift," Central Scouting's Chris Edwards said of Nastasiuk. "He's an excellent penalty killer and uses his long reach very well, is smart in his ability to be in the right place. Earlier in the year, I would have called him a puck chaser, but he played with purpose and made a big jump over the second half of the season. I think he could end up becoming a big pro."
Nastasiuk was ranked No. 33 on Central's midterm report in January.
"I feel just playing and getting time on the ice really helped my growth as a player," Nastasiuk said. "I had a good talk with the coaches just after the Christmas break, and my confidence grew. They were giving me chances and that helped my confidence. I love being the underdog and in pressure moments."
Both Nastasiuk and Bigras suited up for gold medal-winning Canada at the World Under-18 Championship in Sochi, Russia. In seven tournament games, Nastasiuk had two goals, four points and a plus-4 rating and Bigras finished with three assists and a plus-8 rating.
"Chris [Bigras] will never bring you out of your seat with fancy goals, but he doesn't make many mistakes either and keeps it simple," Edwards said. "He moves the puck well and every time he gets it, he makes a good play or outlet pass and gets it up the ice. He has that ability to skate the puck up ice and create offensive chances."
In addition to earning a gold medal at the U-18 World Championship in April, Bigras also won gold with Canada at the 2012 Memorial of Ivan Hlinka.
He was asked his thoughts on the most important factors to becoming an NHL defenseman today.
"Nowadays, you need hockey smarts and also your speed and footwork need to be there," Bigras said. "The game is so fast and the forwards move the puck so quick, that you have to be able to think quickly and move quickly."
Central Scouting's David Gregory explained that both players really captured the eye of scouts over the second half of the season. Bigras advanced five rungs on the final ranking of North American skaters from No. 19 at the midterm report.
"One of the things we track is progression and how players begin to handle extra ice time, more important situations and the response to the fact that now they're being keyed on because they developed into an important player," Gregory told NHL.com. "Both of these guys responded to those things really well.
"They are skilled and talented, and their compete level and understanding of the game took both of them to that next level in the league."

Hi everyone,
I did a routine oil and filter change a few weeks ago and unfortunately experienced a bit of a "shock".
To remove the oil filter I reach around the back of the engine from the air intake side of the engine, putting my arm down between the coolant expansion tank and the intake manifold. I use a wide-jawed set of "mole" grips to clamp onto the filter and turn it to break the seal, then remove the tool and continue by hand.
Unfortunately this time I shower of sparks erupted from behind the engine. I quickly removed my hand and the tool and saw that the tool was scorched and scored at either end where it had obviously shorted out across the +ve terminal of the starter motor or alternator and the -ve terminal of the other or another earthed part of the engine or ancillaries - I'm not familiar with the back of the engine block so not exactly sure what shorted out. Thankfully I didn't get an electrical shock or burns - I was wearing gloves and long sleeved coveralls. I've done this operation a few times before and this is the first time I've had this problem.
Pic of the tool and scorch/score marks:
I disconnected the battery before continuing, but it took me a while to get my head around what had happened, I think due to the mental shock of how bad this could have been (perhaps unlikely but still possible because AFAIK there's no fuses for the starter motor or alternator):
- I could have had an electrical shock or burns
- The tool could have welded across the short, leading to it overheating, melting and eventually setting fire to the car
- In parallel the battery would have been discharging so quickly it would have released loads of hydrogen, which could have ignited, especially if I'd tried to remove the negative lead from the battery terminal which would probably have sparked
- If I'd tried to remove the tool by hand when hot it could have melted my glove and stuck my hand in there.... that's when my imagination really runs riot with how horrid it could be.
So, everyone, to avoid a horrible ending please disconnect the battery before removing the oil filter (or any other operation where you need to rummage around the back of the engine block).
If anyone can explain why my worst case scenario isn't possible then I'll be very grateful as it will help me sleep at night!

Cutting accurate holes
One of the most frustrating and time-consuming parts of hanging drywall is cutting all those holes for electrical boxes and lights. Cut them too small and you have to take the piece down and recut it. Cut them too big and you've got a bigger taping job on your hands, or you wind up throwing away the sheet and starting over.
Here we'll show you how to cut electrical box openings that fit perfectly the first time—without broken corners and especially without being too big. Oversized holes are a hassle to fix and look tacky with those big plate covers. If you do make a mistake, check out our remedies for getting you out of a jam.
Recessed lights
Photo 1: Measure the light location
Measure the light from two established edges. Read the distances at the near and far sides of the box. Write them on the framing if you have a short memory!
Photo 2: Mark the cutout in the drywall
Transfer the measurements to the drywall and draw a box. Drive a nail through the center point for a pilot hole. Rotate the cutter several times to score the paper.
Photo 3: Knock out the opening
Score the paper on the backside, using the pilot hole to center the circle cutter. Then knock out the plug from the front with a little rap from your hammer.
Cutting openings for recessed lights can be tricky because you have to measure over your head and then transfer the numbers to a sheet that's sitting on the floor. It's so easy to get confused and lay out the openings from the wrong edge and wind up with holes cut in the wrong place. Then you've got a 55-lb.piece of trash on your hands.
When you're staring at the sheet trying to figure out which end or side to measure from, pantomime swinging the sheet up into place instead of doing the mental gymnastics. Then mark on the sheet the side and end to pull your tape measure from. You'll never go wrong.
You can cut openings for recessed lights by laying them out as we show and then drawing a circle with a compass and simply cutting the openings with a drywall saw. But if you have several recessed light openings to cut out, invest in a circle cutter. It works like a compass and cuts large circles fast and accurately.
Start by measuring the front and back and left and right sides of the fixture (Photo 1), then transfer those measurements to the drywall and draw a box to outline the hole. Draw lines from opposite corners to find the exact center (Photo 2).
Next tap a small nail through the center point to mark the other side of the drywall. Set the circle cutter to cut about 1/8 in. larger than the fixture, stick the center point in the middle and rotate the cutter while forcing the wheel into the drywall surface. The key is to cut through the paper. It may take a couple of rotations. Then repeat on the other side of the drywall and knock out the plug.
Round boxes
Photo 1: Mark the outlet on the drywall
Measure the round box edges the same way as we showed for recessed lights. Then lay out the position on the drywall. A drywall square speeds the process.
Photo 2: Trace a round box on the drywall
Use an extra round box as a pattern (or use a compass) to draw the cutout.
Photo 3: Cut out the opening
Punch the drywall saw through the drywall with the heel of your hand, then saw along the outside of the line.
Measure and lay out the boxes exactly as you did for the recessed lights . A drywall square (Photo 1) comes in handy for marking box positions. Get one at a home center. Draw the vertical lines first, then make horizontal lines by setting your pencil at the correct distance on the square and sliding the square along the finished edge.
Instead of using a circle cutter, trace the round hole with an extra box (Photo 2). If you don't have a box or a compass, sketch the curve freehand. You'll be surprised how accurate you can make it. Then cut the hole with a drywall saw (Photo 3). It's best to slightly angle the saw so the opening in the back is larger than in the front. That way the box will slip into the opening easier.
If you cut along the outside of the lines, the box should fit. But don't assume the holes will slip perfectly over the boxes. Hang the sheet with a few screws that are placed well away from the opening. Then gently push the opening over the edge of the box until the sheet rests flat against the studs. If you ram home screws near a box without careful fitting, chances are you'll bust out a few edges around the box. (See "Oops!")
Avoid busted edges like the plague! To fix them, you have to cut away all loose paper and broken drywall and fill the gap with setting compound. Then you have to apply tape and several coats of regular taping compound. Work carefully to avoid the hassle!
Rectangular or square boxes
Photo 1: Cut out three sides of the box
Lay out all four sides of the box and cut through three sides with a drywall saw.
Photo 2: Use a knife to score the fourth side
Score the fourth side with a utility knife, then snap the flap open with a little punch from the butt end of the knife.
Photo 3: Cut off the flap
Slice off the flap from the backside with the utility knife.
Photo 4: Widen the opening, if needed
Fasten the drywall with a few screws, then press the cutout over the box. For extra clearance, shave the edges as needed with your utility knife.
You'd think that cutting in rectangular boxes would be much easier than cutting in round ones. But they're actually a little trickier. If the hole is a bit off, you're much more likely to blow out an entire side. (See "Oops!")
Accuracy is especially critical if you have to cut several box holes in the same sheet. Also keep in mind that the electrical code allows only up to a 1/8-in. gap around electrical boxes, so you can't cut the holes extra large. You have to fill larger gaps with setting compound. And if the gap gets too large, you'll have to tape it as well because the outlet cover plate won't hide it. (I've seen it many times!)
To assure accuracy in measuring, keep the tape measure level for horizontal distances and plumb for vertical distances. Even holding the tape at a slight angle will cause slight errors in measurements that will cause problems later. Photos 1 – 3 show the hole cutting technique. When you're sawing the hole, cut at a slight angle to make the back of the opening larger (Photo 1).
The opening will be easier to slip over the box and you'll be less likely to break out corners. Also, score and break the fourth side with your utility knife. It's cleaner and easier than sawing, and you're less likely to damage the hole edges.
Hang the sheet with just enough screws to hold it in place, keeping the screws well away from electrical boxes. Then gently push the drywall into place around each box. If the opening doesn't slip past the box, use a utility knife to carve away the sides until the drywall fits (Photo 4). Then finish screwing off the drywall sheet.
If the hole isn't cut perfectly and you run screws through the drywall into the framing near boxes, the edges of the electrical box may break out the surrounding drywall.

Deputies Committee
The Deputies Committee (DPRC) deals with cross-cutting issues ranging from strategic and political oversight of areas, such as HR policy and the new Headquarters, to committee reform, as well as acting as "trouble-shooting committee" for those issues on which no consensus can be achieved in the competent committee. The DPRC reports directly to the North Atlantic Council.
As its name indicates, it is composed of the Deputy Permanent Representatives of each member country and is chaired, according to the topic under discussion, by the Assistant Secretary General of the relevant IS Division or his/her Deputy. The Deputies Committee is supported by the Political Affairs and Security Policy Division, which has overall coordinating responsibility of its activities.
It was created in 2010 in the framework of the NATO Committee Review, as a successor to the Senior Political Committee.

This is a family comedy and, like the Ice Age films, is not intended to be very realistic so don't expect that. Enjoy.

Family movie! Funny, funny film about a family of 'cavemen' who have to keep ahead of the end of the world as they know it. Slightly dysfunctional, but really, just like everybody's family. Well written, touching, comical....the whole works!
Love it... It's hilarious!!
Très bon film divertissant et captivant.
In the dog-eat-dog and everything-eat-man world of prehistory live the Croods, a cave dwelling family overseen by neanderthal patriarch Grug whose paranoid motto of "Never Not Be Afraid" has kept the clan alive if not exactly happy. Daughter Eep is hungry for adventure, Granny spends her days thinking of new insults to hurl at her son-in-law, youngest toddler Sandy thinks she's part wolf, and son Thunk couldn't tie his shoelaces to save his life…if he had shoelaces…or shoes for that matter. But the world is changing, and with fiery meteorites lighting the sky and volcanic eruptions destroying everything they've ever known the Croods are forced to think outside the cave and reluctantly join forces with Guy, a young loner and his simian sidekick who are seeking safety in the distant mountains and the mysterious lands beyond. Beset by natural disasters and garish menageries of psychedelic carnivores including flying piranha-fish, pastel tigers, and giant man-eating pansies, the Croods and their worldly guide (he knows fire!) slowly make their way towards the dawning of a new age—but with the threat of total annihilation constantly nipping at their heels will they survive long enough to see it? One of the most visually gorgeous and meticulously rendered animated features I've seen in some time, The Croods revels in multicoloured pastel sets while herds of outlandish bugs and neon monsters practically leap off the screen (and onto store shelves no doubt). The engaging orchestral score by Alan Silvestri keeps pace with the prehistoric action which is further enhanced by some eye-popping "camerawork" including POV sequences, turbocharged tracking shots and lots of adorable close-ups (awww….reptile dog!). Although squarely aimed at youngsters there is still plenty here to make mom and dad smile and a happy-go-lucky ending actually leaves you looking forward to the inevitable sequel (already in production). A welcome little break from reality…yabba dabba doo!
l love the movie the croods and the games and the book
