It's very pretty!!! I say you should keep it. I was going to say If you don't love it,then...But one thing stopped me. Your dad. So sweet of him. I say it's a keeper.

i like it. it is sleek. the fact it is vinyl makes it lighter to carry around, and lower maintenance!

btw, your daddy is sweet to get his daughter a chanel.

Since the bag was a gift her Dad may have removed the price tag.

I think it is a great tote! Unless your Dad is okay with you exchanging it for something you like better, I would not give it to your sister. That IMO would be ungrateful of you. I'm sure a lot of thought went into the purchase, as well as love.

I'd say keep it. You need something that is low maintenance. You have a great dad.

I say keep the bag. It is beautiful and it is, after all, a Chanel. I think your dad wanted you to have a lovely gift from him.

I have a large Chanel vinyl and it is very low maintenance, I would say keep it and get a more classic piece later on down the line. I love my Chanel vinyl. BTW I think the retail on this baby is $1995.

its a lovely bag, but for me, i don't really like vinyl. if you share the same opinion, perhaps you should go for a bag you really like

i like it, i think you should keep it. I also think it's so much more special since your dad bought it for as a surprise. That's really sweet.
