Do you regret buying a Chanel White bag?

[Canneiv]

I have a white vintage Chanel that is still white (not yellow) and it's my most treasured bag in my very small Chanel collection. I don't regret purchasing it one bit and in retrospect, I'd pay twice as much for it as I did when I bought it. Yes, I love it that much!

It's unbelievable that your vintage Kelly Chanel still in great condition.

Yes, I feel so lucky to have found her when I did, Canneiv! I was so pleased when she arrived in the mail as she was even better than I expected.

I LOVE seeing you bag! It is beautiful with your tributes

Thank you, Greengoddess8! I haven't worn them together yet, but I will soon!

Thank you, tutushopper!

P.S. I now have the option of carrying her with these silver tributes or my new white patent high heel sandals! I don't know what took me so long to finally add white sandals to my closet. I love them!

Thank you so much for all the comments and opinions. I love my White Jumbo Caviar Single Classic Flap, but it got color transfer from my leather jacket. I already tried to clean it with Leather cleaser but it still have some brownish on the back of the flap. That's why I was think to let it go when It is not getter worse, and I will able to have the money to fund in a new bag or another white bag.

Have you looked into some of the transfer removal products people have suggested? I believe there is a thread someone posted about their removing transfer from a light pearly beige.

I tried to remove with "coach" leather cleaser. It works, but not 100% clean and still left with some brownish color on the back pocket.

I purchased the medium flap in white patent leather from a consignment store. There was preexisting color transfer at the time of purchase, but it did not bother me because the price was so low and the marks were on the back of the bag and not noticeable when the bag is being carried.

Fast forward to a few months later, and there is color transfer galore on the back. I cannot say I regret my purchase, due to the price; however I was VERY happy I did not pay retail, or I would have been devastated when the (inevitable) color transfer occurred!

Due to this, I will never purchase a white bag at retail price... the color transfer that occurred after I purchased it would have happened whether I paid $5000 or $500.

You have to be very careful with White bag. I got mine color transfer from my leather jacket I wore. It's good that you didn't pay retail price for it, otherwise, you will feel like you want to kill yourself when color transfer occure.
