BRACKET REVIEW
The Florida Gators entered the
tournament as the best team in the country. Coming off an agonizing four
straight Elite 8 appearances, they finally advanced to the Final Four with
their victory over Dayton. Amazingly, their last loss was 31 games ago in December
(last year!) against the very team they play in the Final Four...UConn. This is
gonna be a BOPPING rematch!
Led by guard Shabazz Napier, UConn
enters the Final Four as a huge underdog against Florida. But this is March
madness, anything can happen! The Huskies are the first #7 seed to make it to
the Final Four since 1985 but they've proved resilient against tough teams like
Michigan State and Iowa State. It just doesn't look like these kids want to
lose!
Every year since 1976, Bo Ryan,
Wisconsin's coach, has brought his dad to the Final Four. Butch Ryan passed
away in August at 89, 8 months too soon to see his son coach in the Final Four
for the first time in his long career. But he has a lot to be proud of.
The Badgers are one of the most hardworking, smothering defenses in the
country and have looked pretty unbeatable throughout the tournament. Pursebop
wouldn't be surprised if they go all the way!
After wrecking Wichita State's
perfect season, Kentucky defeated tough Louisville and Michigan teams to
advance to the Final Four. An extremely young team (9/11 are only freshmen!),
the Wildcats have been a bit inconsistent throughout the season. But Coach
Calipari put the pieces together at the perfect time and they look
dangerous heading into the tournament's final weekend. Wisconsin is gonna have
their hands full!
To celebrate the Madness, Pursebop created her own 'BOPPER'S BRACKET' of purses (Chanel of
course, hehe) and presents the official CHANEL FINAL FOUR TEAMS
On
the top left we have the Chanel special edition LAS VEGAS BELLAGIO BAG, representing FLORIDA.
This whimsical Vegas
inspired classic mini features crystal dice and CC charms delicately dangling
from the strap. It was specially created as a limited edition piece for the
re-opening of the newly renovated boutique in Jan 2012. It’s adorable but still
classic in an elegant light gold~champagne colored metallic lambskin with matte
gold hardware.
It was love at first sight
when I attended the spectacular reopening of the Bellagio Boutique and there
was just no way PurseBop was leaving without this treasure. Looks fabulous with
chains lightly bunched up in the hand and the bag dangling a few inches (just
long enough to see its crystal charms catch the light and sparkle). For a
more casual chic look, looks fab carried cross body! Florida got one of my
favorite collector pieces…
On the bottom left we have Miss CinderLego, PurseBop’s HOLY GRAIL
Chanel piece representing UConn. Appropriately
appointed as THE CINDERELLA of all Lego
Bricks…thus ‘Miss CINDERLEGO’ :)
She was released as a
limited edition runway piece last fall and might be the most photographed
Lego Brick of all. PurseBop has a whole Chapter of blog features dedicated to
this sparkling beauty…familiarize yourself here and then begin your adventure
with the #FFFF (Fun Filled Fall
Feast) followed by “Lost her SHOE… found her CLUTCH” and the romantic Shakepeare tale, “whats in a name?”
On
the top right we have the Chanel Vintage
Black Satin Mini Box, adorned
with 22 ct. gold elaborate braided bracelet chain and CC logo representing Kentucky. A true gem from the days when Chanel hardware was created with ‘real’ gold…oh
those olden ‘golden’ days! Kentucky’s got the old world Hollywood style GLAM
going on…
And
lastly, on the bottom right we have the 13S
Hot Pink Caviar Mini representing Wisconsin.This
controversial pink created quite the buzz for
Chanel aficionados. It’s 'TOUCH ME NOT' delicate nature, YET
brilliant saturated neon like color had everyone in squeamish delight…
especially PurseBop! She inspired me to photograph
Who do you want to see in the Chanel Championship??
Stay
tuned tomorrow as the real Final Four battle it out on CBS...
Love PurseBop
