I am thinking of purchasing my first Chanel and I am debating between these two. I need some help deciding! I love them both! Any help would be appreciated.

Hi hun~ i'm a WOC lover and have several in my collection, but all of them are Classic and lambskin except one in tweed.
I think Classic or Trendy are both a great choice, but i would choose the classic caviar one if you are planning to use it daily and you dont want to baby your WOC, it is not too casual and not too formal. The big CON for me is the opening because it can pop open when i overstuff it and you often have to use both hands to close it.
I would choose the Trendy if you can deal with the lambskin (i personally love it but it depends on each person) and you dont mind the hardware getting fingerprints or scratches, the turnlock clasp of the Trendy WOC is a very useful because it makes it easier to close, i would say the Trendy can fit a bit more than the classic too but pls double check. Finally, i think the Trendy WOC can be used as a clutch too because it looks a bit more formal than the Classic so its a bit more versatile but i does scream Chanel so its not as lowkey as the Classic.

Love both styles, but for the price difference, I'd personally go with the classic (since it's timeless) and save that extra money for your next Chanel. 
The new classic WOCs have a magnetic closure too, which I've read (on here) is much easier to use!

I've always wanted a trendy, but got the classic style instead. If I was out and about more in the evening.. would have gotten trendy.
Definitely classic, but saying so the trendy is gorgeous too. I can understand how hard it is to decide.
