Favorite Chanel evening bags?

as mentioned bfore, timeless clutch gets me too, it can be used for anything, prices go around the 1ks and more depends on the fabric you like.
theres alot of fabrics on this one.

it looks very nice for evenings, as you can see any type formal or dressy.

I agree with others to get the timeless clutch! I personally think that lambskin would be more elegant for black tie events compared to caviar.

I have found that a mini lambskin classic flap goes with any evening event

I have the timeless clutch in lambskin. One thing to consider is that the lambskin is very delicate and can look worn if used often.
For me it's a catch-22. I never go anywhere, so mine look great, but at the same time, b/c I don't go anywhere, I have very little use for it.
It's beautiful, and I definitely recommend it. The silver version is fabulous!

I have a pretty one i like, but because it's an evening bag I don't use it that much because of it's size. It's hot pink kind of a fuschia color with gold hardware, and it was my first chanel

I think the clutch is great! Love the lambskin, looks much more luxurious compared to caviar.

Oh! Is that how it works? If you ship to a state that doesn't have a Chanel Boutique you can avoid the tax?

Even though a clutch is a great evening bag, I need something with a strap. I use my medium black flap as an evening bag and it works for me - big enough for everything I need to carry and I can wear it on my shoulder or in the crook of my elbow, leaving my hands free.
