I am currently having a dilemma over which bag to purchase. Pros and cons below mainly relate to my circumstances:
a) Chanel Classic Flap in Caviar (Black)
Pros
- Classic and iconic bag
- Women’s dream bag
- Good resale value
- Always a fan of Chanel
- May not be able to afford it in the future if I do not get it now
Cons:
- May be slightly too dressy as I am looking for a more casual bag (I have the YSL Kate in gold hardware - though they are of different level, I foresee I would use them for similar purpose)
b) My lady Dior (Preferably pastel colour)
Pros:
- Love at first sight with the design of this bag with the pins
- Looking for a more casual bag and after trying the pastel colours, I think it looks casual yet luxurious enough at the same time
- Slightly more wallet friendly
- One of my wish list
Cons:
- Less resale value
- Would still be pining for Chanel classic flap after purchasing this
- Have read that the opening is not as user friendly compared to Chanel flap
I owned one Chanel Boy in Black with RHW hardware and while this is also a casual bag for me, I would really want to have a pastel coloured bag. Have considered getting the beige Chanel instead, but if I am getting the classic Chanel, am thinking I should be getting the most classic combo. I would say my heart is leaning towards Dior, but how I could I say no to Chanel when I may not be able to afford this anymore in the future?
Appreciate your advises
