Got my first Chanel bag! I went to the Robertson Chanel boutique in LA, tried on a bunch of CFs, and decided on the black jumbo CF in caviar with silver hardware. They didn't have the bag in stock at that store, but there was one brand new in the box at the Beverly Hills store so we drove over and picked up my new baby.

I've been wanting a Chanel bag for a while, and I finally pulled the trigger after:
  • finally being a job and company I love - started 6 months ago and I'm still as happy as day 1,
  • getting a promotion and becoming a people manager, and
  • having to postpone my wedding by a year due to COVID!

congratulations! Well deserved! The jumbo is my favorite size too

I won't use it as an every day bag because of the material, but it is a gorgous bag. Why do you think of returning it?

Thank you! I'm not sure why I consider returning it, I guess it's because I wasn't planning on buying it... I just walked in to look for something a bit different, found it and bought it to take it home and think about it. I'm considering exchanging it for a Classic, but I already have the Medium Classic in black.... difficult decision! :)
 
I think you carry it well! I vote keep if you love it!

Thanks a lot for the comment and input! :) I do like it but it was kind of an impulse buy. I was looking for something different which I guess this is... but still undecided if I should exchange for another classic. Will think for a few more days! Thanks again.
 
Goals!! It’s a show stopper. Personally, I love this bag and how it looks with your outfit. Making me want one!

Aww that's so nice, thank you!! I like it a lot as it's different which is what I was looking for but I still can't decide if I should exchange it for a Classic instead. Wish I could just get both =)

Maybe consider exchanging it to a leather 19-flap? There are many great colours this season. I bought mine (also impulsively) a few months ago just before the price increase and I didn't expect to love it, but I did!

This is different indeed. You already have a black medium you can wear, so the basics are covered. If you want another classic, you can always get it later.

If you can afford the bag, not planning on buying is not a good reason to return it. It did catch your eye after all. But it looks so striking and suits your style, I am completely biased now. If you take a step back from overthinking, what does your heart say?
