How many Chanel bags do you have?

How do you like your BA bag? Do you use it often? I am debating if I should get one. Love that it is in caviar leather
I still use my BA now and then but not as much as my boy bag. BA is more a casual everyday bag and I love how there is a slip pocket at the back for easy access to phone and it can be cross body. The only minor cons I find is the front double zippers do make quite some noise when I'm carrying it. So I usually left them open and half zipped up on both sides of the bag.
 
I have these 4 which I started back in May 2021.

1. Mini top handle in black caviar
2. Old medium boy in black caviar
3. C19 WOC in tweed
4. C19 small in black lambskin

I would love to add these in the near future;
1. C19 in Caramel
2. Classic WOC in black caviar SHW
3. BA in caviar medium size in either caramel or black colour

13 and done! I sadly dont have a complete family photo as we’re temporarily posted in another country

Random photos I dug up on my phone —
1) Maxi Classic flap red lamb
2) Jumbo Classic flap deep purple
3) Vintage Jumbo square black flap (big logo)
4) Vintage Jumbo beige flap (big logo)
5) Vintage mini flap in baby blue, horizontal quilting
6) Vintage envelope flap beige
7) Chevron envelope flap in ivory
8) Vintage patent camera bag in black
9) Maxi Le Boy in black
10) Old medium Le Boy bicolor beige/black
11) Small Le Boy in emerald green
12) Large biarritz tote
13) Caviar vintage tote (cant find a photo)

I have sold a medium flap, while I understand it’s the most popular size, I find the straps too awkward to wear crossbody. Also sold a new medium boy, it’s my least favorite size.

I was at 10 not too long ago, but then went down the Hermes rabbit hole and am at 8. (20B Burgundy Jumbo, black reissue 226 with RHW, black classic flap with GHW, black chevron reissue with aged GHW, black 19 bag, 21K caramel boy bag, mini so black chevron reissue, and black woc with ghw)

There is nothing that really catches my eye and with these price increases, I maybe stepping back and will enjoy the bags I currently own!
 
I'm down to five: (1) black lambskin mini square, (2) navy lambskin mini rectangle, (3) fuchsia caviar small coco handle, (4) black & gold calfskin small gabrielle, and my beloved (5) light beige calfskin reissue 226. I made a collection video on YouTube if you want to see them all!

I definitely relate to those who said nothing seasonal is catching my eye recently... and then when I tried to buy classic bags, the price and/or quality turn me away. I recently returned a mini where the lambskin was dry and plastic-like and the backpocket was crooked. Caviar bags also don't appeal to me anymore. Maybe I'm at Chanel peace and it's time to move on?

If you don't mind asking; why do you only have black bags? :)

I like black bags. Low maintenance and they go well with my wardrobe color which is neutral. I also like keeping them in a good condition. So don’t want to deal with problems like color transfer and all kind of dirty things. I don’t think I have to get other colors bags than black to add a variety to my collection. For me, I already have a variety in terms of models that can serve every purpose.

If you want to add colors to your outfit, it’s cheaper to get colorful clothes instead of Chanel bags.
 
Hello :flowers:

So interesting to read everyone's thoughts on their collections and see the beautiful bags :smile:

I've got about 20 Chanel bags. I thing I have too many... I don't think I've been using them as much as I should, and it's a shame to have them sitting in their dust bags for weeks and months till they get their chance to 'go out'. Anyway, here are some of them - the classics and my minis. I do use other, more 'practical' Chanel bags more though. I think I'm done for now though.
