Please help me to decide on 19 colour!

[honeybunch]

Hi! I’m looking to buy the 19 in small but I’m torn between the black, dark beige and white. Black is the safe option and I know I’d get a lot of use out of it but all my bags are black, except for my LV Pochette Metis in mono. However, I will probably sell this to part-fund the 19.

Every summer, I wish I had a light coloured bag but whenever I have bitten the bullet and bought one I’ve ended up selling it. I’m so scared of colour transfer as I wear a lot of denim. I’ve never owned a light coloured Chanel.

Should I go for the black 19 (safe option) but not really spring/summer friendly and then get a cheaper bag in a light colour? Or just go for white or beige in the 19? Help! TIA.

I’m having the exact same issue! I am leaning towards getting the Chanel 19 in black (got on a wait list today) and am eyeing a few YSL bags for the summer in light grey or beige.

Black for the 19! It is so classy. I got a WOC in pink, since I also wanted something in a color. Black is the safest bet.

@birkinbaby do you mean you got the Chanel 19 pink WOC? Was it hard to find?

White!! But if you don’t want to baby the bag, definitely black.

No I got the boy woc in pink. I have not seen a 19 woc in pink, although someone sent me a photo of a red 19 woc a few months ago.

If you want colour but don’t want to baby it buy the navy .

I’m in the exact same boat as you, OP! Can’t decide between the black, dark beige or grey.
I think grey and white will get done color transfer at some point because I also wear lots of denim.
I think black or dark beige are the safest options. Black is so classy (but I have too many black bags already) and dark beige would probably look good in the summer or winter. But I’m not sure if I want to spend that much money on a colored bag as I’m not sure how easy it would be to style...

I LOVE the lighter colors in this bag. The Pink, White, Light beige. I am a black bag girl through & through but I feel the HW is way too yellow on the Black. Lighter colors tone it down. Plus I don't have a light colored casual Chanel for S/S.

I agree on the Navy. I get so frustrated with color transfer - especially on a bag that is expensive. I have been focusing on my bags that I want to use as daily options and have decided Navy (or dark grey) for Spring / Summer and black (or a deep Maroon) for Fall / Winter. Otherwise its not worth the stress (ulcers, etc.) or extra wrinkles on my face. I just drool at the light colors in a price point this high.

I just got 20P dark blue and color is to die for, way better than in photos.

@birkinbaby I saw the 19 WOC yesterday in pink! I tried it on just for fun/for size but didn’t take a picture. The strap was way too long for me but it was cute.
