Huge Debate: lv epi twist wallet on chain/ chanel boy woc

[PrettyVee]

Hi everyone, I am so in love with epi , being by favorite leather from lv.
I own a lot of different bags but do not have one single wallet on chain.
I am currently debating on chanel boy woc, or this lv epi twist woc.

I am peitite figure, the chanel is way too long for me,
i like how the lv twist woc sits on me .
the biggest concern between the two is : chanel too long, more delicate
lv twist is : no more leather strap on shoulder , and really heavy my bone on shoulder rubs slightly againist it. (chanel was very light weight)
pros for chanel: light weight, always a classic
pros for lv: durable, lovely pink ballerine color and the twist lock is awesome!
Please all help me make the right choice!
I usually need to carry car key, one lipstick, one compact powder (very slim case) and an iphone plus.

Any input will help! Thx in advance!

I had both of these bags, sold as too small, anyway, I favoured the Epi over the Chanel because it was more durable and better constructed. For example, the leather on the bottom of the Chanel was so thin that I could see the edges of my lip stick protruding through. Also I found the twist lock on the LV to be much easier to open than the button snap on the Chanel. Good Luck.

Having just purchased the Chanel WOC in the past month, my vote would be for that. I think the quality is excellent, and it can be dressed up and down. Like you said, it's very lightweight. It will fit the items you describe. I crisscross the chains and it shortens them; you can even tie them with ribbon to shorten them. I don't have any issues with the construction. I love Epi leather too. It's super durable. It sounds like you are partial to that, and I love the Twist. But weight concerns would really make me pause. Maybe you could wear it cross body to distribute the weight differently? The only thing I would recommend for the Chanel, if you go that direction, is getting caviar instead of lambskin. More durable for this small item. GL!

I have both and would probably go WOC... it's easier to open and holds more because it's a little softer. Plus the chain isn't as unwieldy.
