honestly i’m thinking of doing same! my woc can be worn so many ways and it’s so versatile, that my square mini is just sitting pretty in my closet! I call her epic 2021 HB fail .. maybe i’ll learn to love her and reach for her, but right now she is just not meeting expectations!
Chanel WOC- is it worth it?

The thing about Chanel is you should never let go if you’re not 100% over the bag. I sold my black woc only to repurchase it at a higher price. I justified the purchase because I sold another Chanel that I made a profit on around the same time. It still stung to pay the extra $1k though!
totally agree! it amazes me how in less than a year of purchase, I already have equity in this gorgeous bag that i just don’t wear … def hanging on tight until i’m sure it’s not the right fit.
Totally agree! Sold my black WOC only to repurchase it back paying double the price
How do you like your pearl crush WOC? I assume it is in lamb skin as well? I am thinking of getting one but most people told me to get the classic caviar because they are harder to come by. I am just in love with the pearl crush and the mini pearl crush doesn't work out for me. Thank you for your input!
I like it. Yes, it is lambskin so it’s not as care-free as classic caviar. But I personally prefer turn-lock and adjustable chains so I went with the pearl crush. If you like it, get it! You can always get a classic caviar at a later time.
thank you so much for the quick response, it is definitely a gorgeous piece!!
There’s always a place for a WOC. If I’m going for cute casual vibe, I’d grab my wok and wear it crossbody.
Late to this party, but want to weigh in on the WOC vs. MINI question. If funds are plentiful, there are good reasons to have both.
The WOC is great for travel, takes up barely any room in a carry on, doubles as a clutch with the strap tucked inside and can be worn underneath a coat or jacket for extra security. Also, it's perfect for a cocktail party or events when you want to be hands-free. That said, with an iPhone inside there's little real estate left for anything else. Your significant other may have to put your lipstick in his jacket pocket. I know mine did! I had a Black Lambskin WOC with silver hardware for several years and recently parted with it because I used it so infrequently.
The Rectangular Mini is amazingly roomy, holding nearly as much as a M/L Classic Flap. If you carry a bulky car key, this definitely is the one to get. Great style, light weight and extremely versatile. Mine is SO Black Lambskin, so it goes day to night, casual to elegant.
My clear choice is the Rectangular Mini.

I used to have red woc with silver hardware but sold it. I’m left with these two. Love these bad boys!With the rumored/confirmed PI, I feel like I want to get one more WOC. I know there's a thread for WOCs, but could I see some WOC collections you all have?

You have everything covered with these two! I have black caviar but wouldn’t mind one in a beige color way at some point. Beautiful!
