For you, I'd recommend black on black. For one thing it is a rare bag with a high demand and secondly, you already have black and gold. BLK hardware will be a good change. I think you'll love this bag and may want to buy it in a different color. If that happens you can always get another one with gold hardware. The denim one with gold hw goods very classy as well.
 
I'm having a dilemma of which hardware color I should go with, may you help me decide please?
I can't decide which color looks better as an overall purse: the black with black hardware swagger, or the black with pebbled gold hardware.
Pretty much all my Chanel's are black with gold hardware so I was wondering if I should try something new since I have multiple black / gold.
I plan to carry the swagger carryall as a more... As I describe it, "Low maintenance, go with the flow bag".. One that I wouldn't mind bringing to the shooting range, road trips, disneyland etc. Please let me know your thoughts. I would GREATLY appreciate it!!

EDIT: I know I will be the one carrying it etc. and I should get what I like... but I do value my friends opinions etc too and about 11 people so far have told me gold looks better to them. I should add I am pretty indecisive and I really just don't want to regret my decision later on so getting all your comments, thoughts, and honest opinions etc would be a lot to me as well. Thanks!!

I always love black and gold bags, so classic and elegant ... that said, this bag has an edge with the black on black that really works well in this swagger style and shape. The combo is so unique!
But you really are the one who will choose. There's a reason you have mostly black / gold on your bags, it could be that is what you prefer most. :smile1:

Hi everyone! Thanks for all the input so far. Do you think the black on black would work nicely in a professional/ environment as well?
Really just looking for an overall bag that looks nice for everyday use as I'll be giving my other bags a break since they all don't fit as much as I'd like. I like the Celine bag and the coach swagger (black on black) kind of reminds me of it but because Celine doesn't have the shoulder straps etc that I like I don't think it'll be a good fit for what I'm looking for. Does anyone else see a slight resemblance or is it just me? *photo doesn't belong to me, found it on google so not sure where to give credit to :) ImageUploadedByPurseForum1438992678.365523.jpg

Letstalkbags has a valid point. Now that i think about it, I feel like you'd be happier with Black Gold. We all have subconscious preferences. I have multiple bags in cream with gold and yet will be still be attracted to the same color combo. Sometimes i will forcibly convince myself that i need a change and will choose a different color but will invariably end up thinking about the cream one i did not get. May be i don't need a change. I think we should go for what we are drawn to naturally and to me it seems like blk/gold would be your preference. Would you be able to post mod shots with both ?

I think the Celine bag looks more like the Crosby Carryall vs. the Swagger, but that is just me. I have a hard time with that bag, because it looks like a robot face to me.
 
Lol yes! I think the Celine looks like a robot too! Glad I'm not the only one.. However I thought it was worth the mention because it's for the most part an all black purse too like the black on black coach haha I will look up the purse you mentioned!
 
I just took some mod shots of wearing both casual and business attire. I carried the purse: top handle style, side & front view, used the shoulder strap, and also wore it cross body. Please let me know your thoughts. :) ImageUploadedByPurseForum1439098178.339495.jpgImageUploadedByPurseForum1439098193.240558.jpg
