Owning Two black Chanel Classic flap in different hardware color

[Grande Latte]

I used to care a lot about metal color, but now I don't. I have warm skintone so gold and light gold usually works for me. Silver actually looks harsh on me.

For your situation, and at these outrageous Chanel prices, no, I don't think it makes sense. Use the money for a different colored chanel altogether. Go red or pink!

It makes complete sense to me.

For me, I just bought a different leather.

For example:
Jumbo Black Caviar GHW
Jumbo Black Lamb SHW

I own black classic flaps in both hardware colors in the medium size. I wear the one that matches my outfit better or based on my mood.

These are my reasons why i wanted both hardware. I dont mind if my accessories did not match

It really depends on if it matters to you! (And also if you're willing to part with the money...)

My opinion is since black is a classic colour, I would go for it. Another thing you can consider is what someone else has mentioned - getting another bag in a different size or different material (lambskin/caviar). I'm also petite and I have a small and a medium classic flap.

I purchased the same bag in diff sizes, leathers and hardwares lol but all black. They’re all very different to me. I would probably get the same one in the same color/size/leather but diff hardware too tbh. My only issue with Chanel rn is the quality control. I’m seeing too many defective pieces (misaligned flaps, poor stitching, creasing/indentation or even scratches brand new, etc.). Can’t justify the price point unless the piece is absolutely pristine.

I did it ladies! Thank you for helping me decide. I have been thinking about this for over 6 months now and a price increase had happened. Finally done with my classic flap collection

Congrats! In your side-by-side photo, you can really appreciate how different they both are. Each give a different vibe. Enjoy!

I have a black medium classic in silver hardware, but i realize I wanted to gold hardware. I decided to buy the same bag but in gold hardware, do you think it’s too much? Or what is your opinion about it

I don't think it's too much. If you were happy and content with your shw, you wouldn't have bought the other one in ghw. Keep both unless you need the money or until you are sure you really don't like the other one.
