Gorgeous Bag and it look so good on you. I love the color and style. How heavy is it? Absolutely love it.

Reading this board is very trying on my budget.

I got a Givenchy tote (from eBay, but it's new to me). I *love* it.

Congrats on your new Givenchy tote I need a tote too, but I've gotta wait - need to pace myself. I was bad this month!

really nice! are the chains heavy?

No, the chains are not heavy at all. But after having it for a day, I'm realizing that the chains are driving me nuts. They're clanky (is that a word?) and now that I had a much closer look at it, the hardware could have been a little better looking. I'm thinking I should have just ordered the one with the regular leather straps. Ughh, I do have a White one on the way with regular leather straps. I may just keep that one, and send this one back tomorrow.:cry: Hate to do it, but I love this bag otherwise. I'll sleep on it.

^^Let us know what you do? I love the original style GD bags - plus they're less expensive!

i thought the chain ones would be good as i heard that the straps are longer... i tried the orginal one with a thick winter coat on, wished the straps were a bit longer!

Yes, the chain straps are definitely long enough to wear with a winter coat! If you like the chains on this bag, then I would recommend this bag. I do think this bag looks very cute with the chain straps. I'm just very picky, and I prefer more shinier hardware rather than the matte, brass hardware that this bag has. I am not saying this bag is bad at all. It's a great bag! It's just my personal preference to have this bag with the regular leather straps.

^^Really? I wear mine with winter coat just fine - although hopefully with a few more weeks this won't be an issue at all.

I actually like the shorter handle drop length - it hugs the body more that way.
