Mini flap as a travel bag?

[chanellover]

Since you've decided on the mini, my vote is for beige! It'll go with everything you bring on your trip.

If you are still open to suggestions for a travel bag, Balenciaga has great large sized bags that are really light and beautiful. (I prefer lightweight bags) I'd use a Balenciaga bag during the traveling (airport) and shopping jaunts but use the mini for the evening/more formal events.

Looking at your beige Chanel, I kinda want one too now! Uh oh...

You made a great decision. I usually take my black WOC and Neverfull or Le Pliage whenever I travel. My pink mini stays t home because the WOC chain is longer and is easier to match.

Hope you snag some goodies in Paris!

Beige. It goes with everything.

That’s very true. I am going to pair it with my trench to make sure it’s not too beige. Lol

 

[Meowwu]

Definitely beige. Especially for Paris where brighter colors aren’t the norm and might bring unwanted attention.

Very good point. I haven’t thought of that.

that green is just i *know* the right answer is beige, but c'mon... that green! i'd take the green - London and Paris are two of the most fashionable cities in the entire world, why be safe and boring??!!

Lol! I know right?!

I love the beige, but the chain on my mini bothers my shoulder when I wear it for really long periods of time. It's a great bag for travel if I'm wearing a couple of layers to protect my shoulder.

I can totally relate to this! I have travelled with my jumbo size reissue before and it’s strap was all metal. As it got heavier it was such a torture to use and wear.

Thank you for the suggestion. I don’t own a balenciaga at the moment. (Maybe I should seize the opportunity and get one?!)

Hee the beige mini is a beauty

Er... so that you don't become a target of crime?

Definitely the beige as it is easier to match but also because I tend to associate green with springtime.

i'm fairly certain a thief doesn't target you for the color of the bag

Thieves will notice a Chanel, regardless of the color btw.

Wellll, since you "need" one now.... The Balenciagas do get addictive too like the Chanels! They both give off different vibes and love them both! Lmk if you need any enabling, er, I mean info. lol

Ohh you'll never know. Anything that looks more attractive will garner more attention although I agree that any Chanel attracts attention.

Hahahaha!!! I am scared to inquire further. I will definitely look into it though (covering my eyes/ears/mouth).
