I really fell in love with wickedassin metallic black bowler bag. :love: I would like one in medium but I had wanted a medium classic flap bag for so long. I need your opinions please :D
 
Oooh ... get the luxury bowler! It's more of a limited edition and it's stunning! The medium flap you can always get next time ... that's why it is part of the classic collection since it is a style that Chanel will bring out time and time again (I meant that in a good way, LOL)!
 
Do you have other Chanels? If so, get the Bowler. If not, try to find the 2.55 re-issue in Medium or Large. I bought the grey one just recently at the SF Neiman's and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it. It's classic, understated and super-chic. I use it with everything!
 
I would get the Luxury bowler. That bag is so chic like shopmom411 said. I have a few of the classic flaps and I feel that they are more conservative and not as fun as the luxury bowler. You can always get the bowler now, and get a classic flap later :D
 
I'd get the classic flap! I agree that the luxury bowler is a more limited bag, but it will look much more dated than the classic flap 5 years from now.
 
hmmm depends wat u want to use it for.... the medium classic does not fit much. and the bowler can fit ur life haha. Hmmmm i'd go with the bowler for now.. tho i usually say classic.... auch! hard choice! surprise me! :)
 
I think it totally depends on what you want to do with the bag... My bowler is actually my first Chanel--I originally wanted to love the large grey Reissue--but it wasn't doing it for me. So it went back.

Anyways, I went with the bowler because it's got a great funky classic vibe with the chain intermixed with the leather on the actual bag. The classic flap is just a classic--pure and simple. If you want some funk and edge, then I recommend the bowler. If you want a classic purse, then I'd recommend the flap.
