I agree with sheenster23!! The jumbo is versatile and does transition well from day to night; and I've used it for both when I had it. I've never owned a M/L but I heard the same thing from those that own it: it doesn't fit much. If you are concerned about size and transition, then Jumbo is just right.
 
My mom said the same thing, so I listened to her and bought the m/l. I'm regretting it just a little because I could really use the extra room, although I love how I can switch to single strap.

Personally I prefer the size of the new double flap jumbo vs the single flap, so good choice (I see a jumbo in my future too :D)!
 
I agree with everyone. You can carry the Jumbo as a clutch..It looks great.

that's a great idea! i didn't even think of that..

i have been reading on this thread that the jumbo looks less chic going out to night time events.. has anyone taken it to a club and danced with it on? i'm worried about it being too bulky or knocking into people :bagslap:

..for more elegant affairs i would probably bring my clutch, but i am just curious what you ladies think!

I wouldn't bring a jumbo to a club, it would get squished. WOCs are best for clubs IMO. The m/l is perfect for nighttime though if you need more room than a woc
 
Hi girls,

I already have a black jumbo caviar flap, but now I'm kind of lemming the medium flap too. Is it too much to have both in my collection? I know most girls prefer the jumbo size because it fits more, but I think the medium size can pull off a more classy, formal look. What do you guys think? Should I also buy a medium flap? I also have a E/W flap and want to get a classic quilted WOC. Is it weird that I want to get a Chanel in every size? lol
 
i definitely don't think it's too much to have both in your collection if you really want both! the m/l is definitely loved by just as many of us here. If you search around there are a lot of questions pertaining to jumbo vs. m/l flaps and both are wanted even though there's a small difference where more prefer the jumbo (due to being able to put more in the purse!)

and no! Not at all, definitely not weird to want to get a Chanel in every size! You're SO not alone in that department!! :p:p
 
I think it also depends on your own size because I am only 5 feet tall and I love the Jumbo and I always always want that classic bag!!!
But when I try it on I find it way too big for me. Trust me I try that on number of times not only once!!
So i bought the m/l flap, it looks better with my size.. and it could be a day/night bags.

I wish there is another size between m/l and jumbo ....
