Help decide on Chanel Gabrielle

[Dannicorn]

Hi all,
I’m deciding between an all white Gabrielle or an iridescent Blue One. I love both colors so much.
I’ve never had a white bag but I’m only planning to style the white one with lighter color clothes (I don’t wear jeans). I was also wondering how’s the wear and tear for 19S iridescent bag.

Love the white

Love the all white but will be super paranoid about color transfer. It’s also easier to pair it with any outfit!

The iridescent one is super cute, very trendy and would be nice to pair it with denim and anything blue.

I would most likely choose the white one because of its “timeless” appeal but just be extra careful when you use it!

I would go the white! It's so beautiful and elegant however I know I'm very clumsy so I would personally never get a white one for myself.

Thank you! In case there is some color transfer on the white bag, is it possible to ask the boutique to clean it? I’ve never had a white bag so I’m not sure how durable they are in the long term. Also not sure if the iridescent is that durable.

Yeah I was not a big fan of Gabrielle before. But these two colors really blow my mind!

Chanel is kind of difficult to deal with when it comes to repairs - they sometimes even tell you they can’t fix a certain problem. Their after sales customer service is not so good. Lucky for me, they have accommodated my requests for repair so far. I guess it’s a matter of a case to case basis too.

Some people take their bags to third party repair companies like Leather Surgeon. I personally have not tried any.

Both are awesome

I think the white one will be more eye-catching than the blue.

The white! This bag in this size and color could make a Gabrielle fan out of me!
