Hi all! I was hoping to get some input. I have a 7 month old and a 7 yr old. 7 yr old is in school and then camp in the summer so nothing needed really for him. I want a crossbody that’s not to big holds my essentials and easy to use. I’m often just out for quick errands so essentially only need a pacifier for the baby and my stroller in it’s cup holder thing has wipes. I’ll have a diaper bag In the car if we’re out long or under the stroller. I’ve basically sold all of my LV as they just aren’t practical in my life right now but my pochette Métis and neverfull gm so I’m new to Gucci. LV just doesn’t excite me anymore and there isn’t any crossbodys I like.
So so far I’ve gotten these two but wanted to see thoughts and if you have other ones you love If you love and would mind dropping a picture or link that would be great! Thank you!!

Well, your raffia effect Marmont in the first pic is what I would consider the ultimate size, shape and style for a mom bag where you do not need to carry lots of stuff....I have been wearing a version of that bag for over a decade lol....and have always found it to be one of the best "flap" bags out there (Chanel 255 and flaps all are comfortable in a similar way to this Marmont) and in my opinion they are super easy to wear and surprisingly comfortable. So, although I can not suggest a newer bag, I will cast my opinion that your Marmont is one of the best (love your raffia effect GG)

Ugh and just saw another thread that there may be a price increase this weekend ?!! So maybe if I can get my order in quick lol
I heard June 25th. At this point, since Boston only has one boutique/place to buy now, I just wish they would have adequate stock. I brought my sister in to have her first Chanel experience and Chanel didn’t have any CF in stock. Chances are at this point, she won’t get one before the increase, idc about the increase, I just want her to have her “first”. <3
 
I have the bag in the second photo. I would say the pros are:
It does fit the essentials, and although structured it softens up a bit with use which is nice. The strap is comfortable, and it’s pretty carefree in the weather.
The cons are:
I usually don’t wear it crossbody bc it sits up kinda high, and it’s a bit bulky on me. Strap isn’t adjustable.
