I was watching LR with the orYany bags last eve,. and she kept using the word "iconic" when describing them. I've heard other hosts use this word as well... alot! Can someone explain what it means as far as handbags go? Thanks in advance.

To me, an "iconic" handbag would be a vintage Chanel. In my opinion, nothing the Q sells could ever, or will ever be classified as iconic. It's just a selling tactic to make people buy.

I think it means the style has been successful over the years, and probably will remain that way for years to come, so you won't have to be buying a new bag with each fashion season.

I have no idea what I'm talking about!

I don't have a definition, but I have an example: Chanel 2.55 black quilted leather flap bag. I have coveted this bag as long as I can remember.

C'mon, give Lisa a break. She could have said, amazing, amazing, amazing.

hi,

Have you looked into consignment or second hand shops? That's where I got mine several years ago.

True, she could have, and is it just me or have I not heard "that is sooooo Madison Avenue" in awhile?

"iconic".

That must be her new buzz word.

No handbag on QVC is "iconic".

When they start selling Chanel or Fendi, let me know.

Redheadedwench, nothing on QVC is iconic.
