Cambon Bowler OR Cambon Medium tote?

[HappyAngel]

Which is better for a first time chanel bag owner? & which is more practical? I saw pictures of Paris Hilton wearing the bowler & it looks gorgeous on her, but the straps look kinda long. Which style is more comfortable on the shoulder? Does the bowler come in different sizes & how much is it retail? I am 5 feet 5 & weigh 115 lbs by the way.....Thanks!

definitely tote, you'll use it for work/play/everything.

I have both bags, and like them both. But I do prefer the tote

My first cambon was the brown bowler. It was great to use, fitted well on the shoulders and i could put quite a bit of stuff inside.

It comes in 2 sizes. one small one that is hand held and one larger one that is carried on the shoudlers. I am about 5'5 too. The large one was $1300+? I cant rem exactly now. :shame:

But i never regretted selling it off. I have the Cambon tote now and i love it to bits

Which one can fit more stuff in it? (the medium tote or the large bowler)?

Tote-

i personally like the bowler alot more, but i tend to like that kind of shape more. plus, the bowler zips closed which i like better than the open top of the tote.

I have both styles and I love them both. I find the tote to be more on the casual side while the bowler can be casual or dressed up. I'd pick the bowler first

I'm bias, I have the bowler so I vote for the bowler

But the tote is great too so whichever you decide, it'll be a good first Chanel!

Thanks, everyone! I have decided to go with the Cambon bowler as I feel it's a little bit younger looking! & I love that the zipper can close the entire bag. Thanks for all of your help!
