I can’t decide whether to keep this woc. I was originally looking for a beige mini flap or classic woc for nights out and special events but never came across one. 19 didn’t appeal to me at first because of the thick chain and mixed metals but I love the top handle, color, and the overall look is growing on me. I ended up buying it because it was the first time I saw a small beige bag after visiting many different boutiques. I know it’s not a good reason to buy but I sort of felt like it was “now or never” because I live 2 hours from boutiques.

should I keep it? Even though it wasn’t what I was looking for I do think it does look cute with my wardrobe. And I honestly feel like I will never find what I was originally looking for and I refuse to pay more for preloved

Return it if you won’t use it.
keep it if you’ll use it for now, and when you find the one you want to keep, you can sell it (or if you get tired of it).
I love the 19 WOC since it’s great cross body, has a handle, and slim profile a plus that the lambskin is so soft and quilts are kinda poofy.
The classic WOC I just got a black lambskin isn’t as amazing as I thought it would be. I think the Beige this season is only in caviar but I could be wrong (I prefer lambskin).

If you like it and will use it then keep it. It’s really cute. If you won’t use it because it’s not your style nor would use, return it or sell it and wait for what you want.

my vote is to return. Even WOC prices are too much to be settling for. I dont think anyone should settle, because you're always going to want that classic beige woc and than have to rehome this one (possibly at a loss).

I get the sense you aren't loving it. I notice that the chain is quite long and with the traditional WOC you can hack it to adjust the size on the inside even wear as a shoulder bag. The 19 won't allow for that. I would go for the mini and not compromise.

I would say return and hold out for what you actually want. I also agree the length looks a little long on you. I have the boy woc and it's long on me and trust me, it's a pain in the butt when the bag is longer than your arm's reach lol.
