How many Chanel bags do you have?

[Purrsey]

1st pic bags are with me now.
2nd pic two CFs are at my the other home.

For the fun of it, I included my thinking process in choosing one bag for the day. And they are all caviar.

1/ Reissue 226 Black RHW
Definitely top of my list in terms of function/size/style/versatility/chic-ness; great for any occasion, casual or work. I usually pick this when I don't want to flash "Chanel bag", don't want to look too glam.

2/ Jumbo SF Red SHW
The only kind of red I will carry now. Not fiery/bright red. This usually goes with me when I know I'm out for long hours due to its bigger capacity. Can stuff many things I need throughout the day.

3/ Medium Black GHW
When I wanna show people yes-I-am-a-Chanel-girl Can't hold much as we all know. But it's a good accessory to feel dressed-up.

4/ PTT GHW
The ultimate mummy bag. I grab this for moments of mummy-I-wanna-go-right-now. Roomy enough to pop in my girl's water bottle, her snacks, wet wipes. Best part it has front and back pocket for easy access (all mummies need that). It's no brainer bag with kids, and still look mummy-good.

5/ Medium Vanity Case blue/black
Opposite of PTT, absolutely cannot wear this with kid around (need to fidget with opening+closing). But when it's me time, and I'm feeling girly and fun, this is perfect.

6/ Medium CF Black SHW
Close to its GHW sister, but I wear it more casually for this.

7/ Small CF Blue LGHW
I'd say I wear this like how most girls wear a mini bag. It's always a casual bag for short outing.

Thanks for reading!

Interesting thread ...
Actually I lost count of the bags I owned, had started off with 2 bags many years ago (one of them still store and kept unused, please dont ask me why) and then slowly build up and added esp more addition since last year and this year. Maybe could not travel anywhere and hence lockdown and spending money to 'help' my local economy I hope.

Lets start..
1. CC Crave Jumbo (the one kept unused as found the size too big on me) - trying to sell
2. Boy Medium Reverso Taupe Grey - might want to let go
3. Boy Medium Enchained Tweed
4. Large flap bag with pearl (cannot remb the exact name for this model as bought many years ago and used less than 3 times, maybe is lambskin and not structure bag) - trying to sell
5. Reissue so black 225 (my fav bag that I used the most of all, coz very versatile and can use it over crossbody)

Below are the new addition I accummulated since last year....
6. BA blue
7.Reissue mini so black
8. Reissue mini red tweed
9. Medium lambskin classic flap
10. CCH small black
11. Mini rectangular in brown (21P) - yet to unbox
11. Mini Square (21B) just bought on last Monday

Omg I need to be on ban island for long long time.

I found the price for many bags has jumped so much this year as compared to early last year. Sharing some pics of my bags here.

THAT caviar reissue! I've been waiting for them to 'reissue' it in new collections. Not that aged calf is bad or not durable, but caviar would be much more carefree..

The feel is definitely significantly different on reissue caviar vs calf (I've been there in calf : mini, 225,226,227 which are all sold).
Calf definitely feels more luxurious - it looks more formal. For caviar, it's really casual, especially on reissue (which I like).
It's a pity Chanel doesn't launch new caviar reissue. I tried to search online the reason why (possibly one). Wasn't as popular as calf ?

Years ago I was told the caviar leather wasn’t appropriate for the Reissue construction which caused issues. Given the bag can be flattened, I can see caviar leather being too stiff.

And it just looks better imo! I’ve been finding it hard to pull the trigger on a reissue because it looks so used and I don’t like that. I didn’t even know they did iterations in caviar!

Hi everyone! I’m looking to buy my first (and probably only) Chanel bag.
My collection currently consists of an LV PSM, a YSL niki medium, and a FLP daily battle zip 32.
I’m tossing up between a mini reissue (Black with GHW) and a small caviar classic flap (Black GHW).
I’d like to keep my collection minimal. I’m also a mum to a little one and don’t drive so I guess I need something functional and durable . I appreciate the understated but still luxurious feel of the reissue mini and I think it would be more appropriate for my lifestyle however I’m concerned that I’d regret not getting a classic flap while I can. I’m also worried the aged calfskin won’t hold up as well as the caviar.
Does anyone have any advice?
