Another post from me, my last one was Chanel vs YSL envelope bag. But now I’m wondering which to keep between Chanel black medium classic flap or YSL college bag?
The college bag has really nice leather, it feels heavier and more substantial (in a good way - feels good quality and not light and flimsy) and it has a long chain so easily worn cross body. It was also £1422 compared to the Chanel which was £2700
On the downside it’s definitely more of a casual bag and doesn’t really look right with dressier outfits. The chain isn’t adjustable (but does come off) and it’s quite long when worn on the shoulder and not cross body. I’m also worried the bag might lose shape over time as the leather is a bit squishy. I hate bags that don’t have structure.
The Chanel bag is a classic and I feel this could be my only chance to own one due to the price increases (I could afford one but I wouldn’t be able to justify it) but when it arrived I wasn’t head over heels in love with it. The quality wasn’t as amazing as I anticipated, the bag feels quite light weight. And I thought the leather looks a bit shiny and plastic like and maybe looks a bit old fashioned on me. But I do love how it looks when I’m wearing it. Bit short cross body though
which do you think I should keep? Please excuse my lockdown loungewear! I do dress nicely sometimes...
