Celine Sangle or Phantom Cabas? (with mod pics)
Hi lovely PFers - I tried on the natural calfskin Sangle & the black small Phantom cabas today and would love your opinion on which you prefer for an every day bag. Sangle Pros: love this look - summer or winter, day or night, rich color, unique shape structured but light the natural...

Celine Cabas Phantom: Comfy shoulder straps?
Hi all, I'm contemplating buying the Celine Small Cabas Phantom for my 'everything' bag (but predominantly work - think laptop, gym wear, bottle etc.) and I have heard from one girl that stuffing it heavily can make the shoulder straps dig as they're rather thin. Anyone have any experiences to...

It’s better as a travel tote, a little floppy and deep for everyday. To make it more secure just cinch it and tie.
I use mine as an everyday tote. Have a third one on the way!
i went today to see both Sangle and Cabas Phantom to decide between the two, and picked Phantom in a smaller size. A larger size of both Sangle and Cabas Phantom is enourmous! I didn’t like the fabric strap of the Sangle, so the only hard choice left to make was in which color to pick the Phantom I already have a black YSL tote, so was choosing between taupe and dark gray… such a tough choice as both look fabulous! Went with the grey one as I feel like taupe suits better someone with blonde hair, I have dark hair and wear lots of navy blue…
But I still have few days to change my mind need to see at home whether gray works with my wardrobe
I hope to get a Sangle in black at some point, I have one in grey and find it a workhorse, really love it. As mentioned earlier I have three Phantoms in small, I love both styles.
Having second thoughts about the black large Sangle. I have a gap in my handbag wardrobe for a taupe neutral color and am thinking of exchanging the black for taupe. My question is, is it difficult to keep the lighter-colored wool strap clean? How would you clean it? Can you order replacement straps?
For what it's worth I have the grey and purchased it pre-loved so I don't know how much it was carried, but my strap isn't showing any sign of soiling.
Hey guys! I'm about to get the same bag in this thread! The Cabas Phantom tote in Small, and Taupe. I have been looking at photos of it for the longest time and seeing it now in store, I notice there is a variation in the structure of the bag. Some pics and reviews the bag looks more structured (https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url...ved=0CAsQjRxqFwoTCMDzyJWJ8fQCFQAAAAAdAAAAABAL) I LOVE this.
However seeing it in person, it's softer and not as structured. Kind of like this: https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url...ved=0CAsQjRxqFwoTCMDzyJWJ8fQCFQAAAAAdAAAAABAW
and in some other pics it looks totally soft and almost beaten up - but these I attribute to purse users that are a bit more rough with it.
My question is - does anyone know if the leather has changed over the years? Like maybe they used to use tougher leather and now use softer?
I prefer my bag not to soften too much!! I feel like I could just be too anal about this, but it's an expensive bag, I want to know it won't look like cr4p after a while! I take care of my bags, but I also have a toddler.
Looking for reassurance more than anything because I LOVE the bag!!!!!
