Hi,

I got my first Maxi jumbo in caviar leather with GWH in mid sept. Actually I want Jumbo so much, but there wasn't stock available in Paris:sad:
So, what do you think about Maxi? Is it worth enough?
Can I use it for any occasion? daily and in the evening?

TIA

I have a Maxi, although mine is older. I think it is the perfect bag for daytime and I can not imagine having a smaller bag.
However, I do think it is a bit big for dressy evening looks. If your evening look is casual, say dark jeans and a sparkly top, then it would be perfect.

I used my Coral Patent Chevron Maxi everyday all summer and for casual evenings. It is a great size because it really holds a lot and still looks polished. I personally like the bigger bag look so, I think it would be perfect for you.

i adore big bags even on petite gals & think a Chanel maxi can go anywhere but for a black tie wedding or formal event...
btw ~ i saw the 09 fuschia maxi on the bay for $6500!

I bought a Maxi in sept too and i totally adore it. I could use it everyday(work, shopping, dates). It was pretty convenient as i could carry more things than the Jumbo.
I really think its fine to carry it on dates.. but if its a formal evening event, its best to carry something smaller like what JetSetGo! has mentioned. :smile:

Congrats! We are bag twins and I adore my maxi! I carried it today and received tons of compliments. It is very roomy and fabulous for daily wear. However, for evenings I too would prefer my WOCs, my 226 or my Westminster Flap (it is m/l siz). There are so many wonderful choices! Enjoy your new maxi!

I love Maxi too. While some may say that it's too big for a petite, but I feel that big can be pretty too!
I have both jumbo & Maxi, I would say Maxi is my everyday bag for work :biggrin:

Jumbo : 12" x 8" x 3"
Maxi : 13" x 9" x 4"

There's a small difference in the size between Jumbo & Maxi. While jumbo suffice for everyday use, I prefer Maxi as I can reach out for my stuffs easily. In addition, the length of the chain is much shorter on Maxi then Jumbo which works better on petite like me :smile:

You can also refer to this page Style Codes and Dimensions of the Timeless Classics for more information on the sizes. Hope this is helpful for you ;)
