Does a brown Chanel tote exist??

[kristie]

I currently have a large cambon tote in black with white CC's. I NEED (ok, not really...I WANT) a brown Chanel tote-ish style bag (not anything patent though). I was mulling over the LV BH, and I already purchased a Moka Chloe bay and have not used her yet because I have not swooned over her, so she may be going back. I want something similar to the Cambon and LV BH style but in brown Chanel....Does this even exist?? I am not a huge fan (please don't kill me) of the GST though. Every time I go to NM in Palo Alto they have a lousy selection..so I have never seen anything like this IRL. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Have you seen the brown cerf tote? I love that one! Also the vintage ligne tote did come in a brown and is fabulous but it may be hard to find now.

I have a medalion tote (a couple of years old though) that is chocolate brown. I like it alot.

all the choices above are lovely options. the gst did come in brown and i think diamond stitch also, but not currently being sold in these colors...

I believe the GST will come in dark brown this fall (last fall it was a calfskin, but it has come in caviar), but that doesn't matter since you're not a fan haha. I also agree that the cerf tote is very nice... and the vintage ligne is gorgeous in chocolate brown, as well as a lighter brown. I would imagine that you might find a great brown tote in the fall line (I hope so, because I'm partial to brown totes myself haha), so don't give up!

Here are photos of my brown Chanel totes. The Modern Chain is what Chanel calls dk grey but it is really a taupe colored brown IRL - gorgeous!

The Square Vintage tote is more of a reddish brown, not a true brown if that's what you're after. Chanel calls this one brown.

The Outdoor tote is a true dark brown. It is smaller than the others but holds quite a bit.

Outdoor tote is first, then Modern Chain and Square Vintage

Minal, the brown MC tote is more of a beige-brown versus a true brown. There is one on ebay - or was - not sure if it has sold. It's TDF!!!

OMG, a brown caviar GST will surely have me opening my wallet!

I think there's 2 brown in the Vintage Ligne, one is more of a tobacco color, like Ro's and the other is a deeper brown.

Awesome pics Roey!

Ohhh Roey and Mick, thanks for the pics!! My wallet will be opening up for sure for a brown caviar GST, I've been waiting for it hehe (I didn't want the milky brown calfskin that was out last fall)! Roey - I LOVE your vintage ligne tote, I'm dying for one... I saw the exact same one you have a few weeks back at my NM, then the next time I went it disappeared ... they had the off white one I think Swanky has, which is also gorgeous The deep brown one lvbabydoll has is stunning too ahh, so many beautiful totes!

i know, this thread is a good idea bc you don't right away think brown when you think chanel, but look at all the lovely options....
