I think the jumbo may be a tad too mature looking for a 16 year old, unless it is in a bright color. A smaller size may suit someone younger.

Have you looked at Boy Chanel? Those can be used as cross body and may be more practical for a teen. Congrats on turning 16 and hope to see your reveal soon :)

I'm not a fan of the Boy Chanel :( I'm planning to get it in Beige or anything Pink/Purple, if available! :) or maybe the mini flap, if I can sacrifice a few things from what I bring LOL

Thank you!! Xx

I still think that a classic 2.55 in small size is the perfect first bag.
If you are a purse freak like I am and you take good care of it, you'll easily pass it on to someone you love later on.
I have vintages designer purses given to me by my mother - they are over 40 years old- and they are getting back in fashion (including the YSL re-editions...).
You should definitely go for an ultra classic purse

The mini flaps are adorable but don't fit very much :( Still it's on my next purchase list

I've got the jumbo and it's perfect, like you I carry so much every time I leave the house, even an umbrella coz it's always raining in London... But i stuck with the black classic, goes with everything. The red is beautiful, or a beige?

Lots of luck :) and don't forget to reveal when u make ur purchase!

Thank you for your input! Xx I'm thinking if I should start minimizing a whole load of stuff from what I usually bring lol I'm a pretty big girl, so I think the mini would look awkward on me o.O

For the Jumbo, I might get it in Beige since I love Beige and not a fan of Black in general :) x

Will definitely do a reveal! :) do you happen to know how much the Chanel flap bags cost in London? :)

Beautiful!! Yes, the Jumbo is £3230, I was in LA a while back and nearly bought it there but found that it was nearly £600 pounds more expensive over there than here in the uk....odd

Sorry for the late reply. :) I'm not so sure about the color. I know they have other color released in the past, but not sure about the current one.
