Hey guys, I am contemplating my next bag purchase and would like your input! I am trying to decide between a Chanel jumbo caviar flap (in navy blue or red or black) and a LV Sofia Coppola SC bag in PM size (most likely in cobalt). I know they are very different bags but I am really having a hard time deciding! So which would you pick and why??

I would be using this bag quite frequently. I love classic, iconic bags which I feel like both of these are. I already have a Chanel lambskin m/l flap but have been wanting a jumbo flap too for more regular use. On the other hand, the SC bag just looks so luxurious. Can anyone who has both chime in on which you like more and why?

Thanks so much!

If your collection has a few similar bags like the speedy then I would say get the caviar jumbo since you only have one m/l lambskin. A jumbo caviar and a smaller lambskin would truly be any Chanel lover's must haves.
However if you have only a few bags and practicality/everyday bag/workhorse is a big consideration then I would get SC. It is a discreet bag/quiet luxury but tough enough for your everyday use, you'll appreciate its practicality. Unlike the speedy it has a shoulder strap which is a bonus. GLD
 
Chanel.

SC LV is not near as classic and iconic as Chanel.
And Chanel price goes up every year. Its so expensive now, it's crazy. I bought most of my Chanel bags in 2009-2011. Now when those bags are twice more expensive I would never have bought them.
 
i only have the jumbo but don't use it a lot. i don't even remember the last time i use it because it's heavy especially with the chain strap. mine is the vintage caviar though, i believe it's much heavier than the latest classic
but i wouldn't part with it because it's just so beautiful and it holds a history to be

i don't own an sc but been wanting to get one since it came out.

i guess it depends on you on what you're planning to carry this bag for. how's your overall style look and what do you expect from your new bag
if you want something with more class and expensive style look go with the chanel
if you want something more handy and casual work horse but understated stylish got with the sc

good luck with your decision :)
you can't go wrong with either 2 though
 
As an investment bag, I would say Chanel Jumbo. For more everyday bag, I would say Sofia Coppola.
I have both and I normally reach for the SC because it has handles and also a shoulder strap that is more comfortable.
But I agree, both are great ! You won't go wrong either way [emoji6]

Good luck !
