I need some help...I got my white medium classic flap with the bijoux straps today. I love it but was wondering if the one with leather straps is more classic/iconic?

I'm debating because in the past month I have bought 2 chanel bags, the secret label and the white bijoux. Both are not the true classic flap that I have always coveted. So I'm wondering if in the future I will think they are "too trendy" and regret not getting a classic? Since the bags are expensive and keep increasing in price, I want to be happy!

Too many choices!!! Too many gorgeous bags!!!:confused1:

I don't find the bijoux chain trendy. :nogood: I actually LOVE the bijoux chain. I already have three jumbos with the leather chain, and I'd love for my next flap to have the bijoux chain. :yes: I think you should keep it.

If you're really doubting it though, exchange it while you have the time.

i have a flap in the old chain and a flap in the new chain... i love both! but i think the old chain is more classic, the bijoux chain is more trendy... the white with bijoux chain looks gorgeous though, and its much prettier than the new chain they are bringing out this season IMO!

Actually, i love both chains, currently i do not have a flap with bijoux chain...if i got the chance to find one, i wuld love to own one with that chain. You shld keep it as it's also have the classic look, frankly speaking~~

I think the bijoux chain is just so gorgeous, but the leather chain seemed to fit more securely on my shoulder so that's how my choice was made. I don't find the bijoux trendy and I love its pure silver or gold look.

Enjoy your gorgeous bag!

I think the bijoux chain is lovely.. but it is not as classic as the interwoven leather chain. It is a fun, younger take on the classic and I see many stylish women carry it off very well. Even though I am relatively young and worry that my Chanel bags do not look age appropriate when I carry them, I personally prefer the classic chain. I want my Chanels to be wearable forever. I think I would get sick of the bijoux chain for its trendiness factor.

I love Chanel bags but I don't have a classic flap with a classic chain and have no intention to acquire one.

I love the bijoux chain and in fact the chain is the sole reason I bought the hybrid (with the MM lock) and I love my hybrid. I also love the original 2.55 chain. Not a big fan of interwoven leather chain to be honest, especially if the leather is of a lighter colour. The chain gets dirty very very quickly. However, I love tweed bags and tweed bags have interwoven chains...

oh keep it...Chanel might not have the same 07 bijoux chain again. im dying to have one. it's so pretty with the white flap. u can get the black later on and that would look perfect with the classic chain. but keep that white..if you don't want it you can give to me. hehehehehe just kidding.
