I vote for the grass. It is hard to decide without seeing IRL. How about you order both and see which one is right for you and then return one? (or keep both)

i wish i can get both but i think juldocs right.. the grass is more neutral and i think it would fit more with more with my wardrobe.. i will sleep on it i guess if i cant decide on both i could just get the black.. never really got a stape black bag!

pekie, if you don't have a good black bag, maybe you should get that 1st. And think about the boxy Paraty - I love it even more than my originals.
Here is my black boxy...

nope my current "black" bag is my work but as it is anthra techically it isnt one.. i know i should really think of investing a black before any other colours.

Really? is the boxy paraty really that much comfier in terms of usage? yours looks beautiful.

The Boxy Paraty is really great and I think a much better Paraty than the original. Perhaps just a tad... hmmm... boring. BUT, gorgeous leather, great smell, so roomy, those great longer straps can go in hand/on arm/on shoulder, AND it ZIPS shut! It would dress up better than the Hobo too.

The Heloise Hobo though is just YUMMY! Gorgeous leather that has become a fabulous smooshy pile when it sits down now. The Nutmeg is absolutely delicious. It is a bit of a bottomless pit if you aren't used to hobos, but I keep everything organized inside in several smaller Bals (a Compagnon, a Makeup, a Mini Purse and a Coin Purse). The snap closure is REALLY well magnetized for about 1/2 inch all around the actual snap, so it closes surprisingly well, almost as well as a zipper! It is VERY VERY comfy on the shoulder. Well there, I just convinced myself to go ahead and get Black too.

Qwerty, seriously, I can't pick ONE, you need BOTH. I would definitely get ONE in Nutmeg (probably the Hobo, because it just suits the bag so well) and ONE in Black.
So hopefully that is some help (or some enabling)!!!
Sorry I was a little late in responding to this thread, but I appreciate all the helpful enabling you girls gave! I think I have to get them both!

I'm already formulating a plan for getting my nutmeg hobo, the boxy paraty might have to wait a while, but hopefully I can get a hobo in the sales

I do love the boxy. It doesn't have a single shoulder strap, but the double straps are longer and can be worn on the shoulder. It is just such a functional and roomier shape without the taper in and pinched shut look. It has so much more room than the medium original Paraty without being the suitcase size of a large Paraty. It fits my needs MUCH better.

Ooooh, wonderful! But you're driving me crazy sticking with this actual ban. I'm very impressed but if my DH finds out that it is actually possible, it will just look so bad for me!

Haha, I'm driving myself crazy - if I did this ban once my man might expect me to do it again

It will just make it all the sweeter though when I get a heloise hobo at the end of it

Default chloe fans need your help!
i am new to chloe but i saw the most gorgeous chloe bag today at a boutique. i didn't get a chance to get the name of it. it was navy patent (almost charcoal color). i've looked for it around here but i can't find it. it looks similar to the heloise bowler but i am not 100% sure. also the bag was very light in weight and the retail price was $1395.

was the heloise bowler ever made in navy patent? can anyone help me!

mods, please move/delete if this is not allowed!

Question Chloe bag experts
I'm purchasing my FIRST Chloe and need help. Can any of you Chloe handbag owners tell me anything about the Chloe Miki Tote? Size, year available, etc. Thanks for any help.

thanks for helping with a new thread for queries. Does anyone have pics of the Chloe Miki Tote? However, after looking at pics of the Paraty...wow! Thanks.
