Just stopped by Saks today and tried out the black Cerf w/SHW. So gorgeous and classic! If I didn't already have a Chanel bag on it's way to me this week, the Cerf would have come home with me today!
 
This is a great thread!

About two months ago I saw a red cerf tote in the boutique, and it seems bigger than the normal size because it was taken up most of the display bench. Is there a special cruise version or a travel size?

I've also seen Croc versions. They are totally TDF!

Yes, I saw the Croc version last year when I went to Las Vegas. (I don't remember which store though!) It was beautiful. :nuts:

The red sounds amazing too, although I wonder if it was a Cerf or another style?
 
Here's my new dark brown Cerf tote :yahoo: Can anyone recommend a bag organizer/shaper they use inside their Cerf tote to maintain the structure? :flowers:

Totally, totally agree. I was so in love with this bag and nearly bought it on the spot. I am so disappointed to read about it losing its shape and I've changed my mind about it now. I really couldn't be bothered worrying about stuffing it or inserting things in it to help it keep its shape. For the money I would fork out for it, I wouldn't expect to have to do this.

agree, seems like too much of a hassle. I kept eying it but was torn between this and the GST to use for work but after reading all the mishaps regarding its structure, I'm going to pass.
 
Having read through this entire thread I've been really put off the Cerf tote as it seems that it will quickly lose it's structured shape. As it is a structured bag that I am interested in, I would be so unhappy for the bag to become slouchy. I am so disappointed as it is such a stunning bag and exactly what I was after. Is it the case with all structured bags, including Birkins and the Prada Saffiano Luxe Tote that I mentioned previously, that they will all lose their shape over time?

Why not go for the Vuitton Suhali Lockit bag? It will definitely keep its shape. i love it (and i just got the Chanel cerf tote as well although i realize it may get a bit slouchy over time...)
 
FLIP, loving your brown cerf!

i searched the entire forum for this thread and finally found it...phew!
i have a black with gold hardware on hold... so excited as i always wanted it and my SA just casually went on a search in the stockroom and cam back with one!! (could not buy it as i limited myself to one bag that day, yesterday)
so hopefully monday it shall be mine :smile1:
 
Yes, mine has lost its shape a bit but some of that is my fault. I'm not very careful with it and I travel a lot and it gets smashed in my luggage. I still really like it though and everytime I go to my salon the guys always want to touch and try it on.
