I'm not a fan of the Lady Dior. I don't like the big bag charms and the structured leather.
For me the Capucine is younger and more modern. I love my Capucines in red!

I like both, but if I had to choose it would be the Capucines. The opening on both bags are practically the same. It's if you prefer the square or trapezoid shape.
I prefer the shape of the Lady Dior, but the Capucines looks much more malleable to get in and out of regularly. I recommend trying them on in person, but if you can't and can't decide between the two, I lean towards the Capucines as I'd rather have a bag I didn't get frustrated with when using.
I have both and prefer my Lady Dior just a tiny bit more, but it really depends on what you're looking for. If it's durability, the Capucines. Love that I don't have to worry about it scuffing or color transfer and the opening is slightly easier to deal with. But I prefer the design of the Lady Dior and find it more timeless and elegant!
How delicate do you need to be with the Dior Lambskin? I don’t throw my bags around but I don’t want to have to be extremely careful either!
Definitely thinking more durable due to it not being Lambskin like the LD. I have heard Dior Lambskin is more forgiving than you’d think though
Mine is a white lambskin so I only pair it with light colored outfits to avoid color transfer. I also wouldn't wear it if I know I'll be somewhere more crowded where people could bump into the bag. I think the color may be a bigger factor here, but even with a darker color I'd still be more careful with the Lady Dior than I would with the Capucines. Just my 2 cents!
