The patent goatskin and caviar are two different looks, so you're not crazy, you just love brown bags (like me)!! Hmm, but if you bought the medium, then they would be completely different haha.
ok, now that you mention this, i gotta ask you. did you see the swatch for this? and which store is getting this bronze? ocgirl and i saw the swatch at Saks and while i thought the color code matched my dk brown metallic, the swatch looked bronze and not a true deep dark brown like the reissue i got in april...seemed almost coppery. the picture at the chanel website looks like a dark brown. so i'm very confused.

ocgirl was disappointed but i was doing a secret happy dance (don't kill me lani) b/c i have been dying to get a bronze reissue --i was hoping it would be the same color as the khaki baby cabas. and no, a bronze reissue is not too similar to the dk gold . well, ok maybe a little bit. a lot .

I'll ask around here because I'm going to Printemps and Galeries Lafayette on Thurs. Maybe they'll have it in the E/W flap style
Ooh la la~ Now I'm super jealous of ya! Paris is my the favorite city. To stay there a whole month would be a dream come true to me. Then again, I think if I stay there for a month, I'd be broke and gain 20 lbs eating all the wonderful food there. Lol. Where are you staying? One of my best trip was a week vacation in this tiny apartment in Rive Gauche, near Latin Quarter. And I had lots of fun in my last trip, when I stayed in a hotel literally next to Sorbonne.

Oh! Make sure you check out Bon Marche as well. They got a little Chanel corner there too but not nearly as many tourists as Galleries, so they may have better stock. The SAs there are lot friendlier than one in Galleries too.

I only have one caviar (PST) and one distressed calf. (metallic black 2.55) The rest are all lamb. I don't think this fall's lamb don't need that much worrying. The first time I carried Miss Dark Green, I was hurrying out the door to get in a cab to the airport. I had bunch of things in my arm, so in order to lock the door, I kind of, (don't throw stone at me for saying this) threw my bag on the step of the front door.

Then, as natural born klutz I am, I carried it around very carelessly whenever I went. Still there's not a scratch and at least to me, it feels as it would stay tougher than 08P lamb.
