My mini capucines. I love it but it drives me crazy that it won’t fit my phone
( and still I bought it.:angel:)
It’s absolutely a beauty! I laughed so hard when you said “it won’t fit my phone” and still bought it lol. Things we do to sacrifice for the eye candy on our arm… for this reason I bought a iPhone pro instead of a pro max to fit in the Capucines mini haha :biggrin:
 
Hi guys,
Need your help about capucine bb in wicker style. I want to buy it in early summer but couldn’t find it but now my SA has found one. He told me that there only one left in the country (USA). But now I’m on fence :angel: it’s End of summers so it’s like buying for next summer season in advance. He told me that style won’t come back next year would be different and I’ll be taking a chance.But 7300$ is quite a sum to spend on a bag that I can’t use right away because of weather or few weeks of use. So what do you say I should go with it or take a chance for next year?

Which one exactly?
Is this one better than last year's to you? Better than any other version you can imagine?

Also, it might be $8300 next summer! 💰

Like so many special edition bags, there is no guarantee another similar version will be released in the future.
I bought the 2023 BB version while on vacation in France in June 2023, and only wore it for the first (and only) time in July 2024.
It is a gorgeous bag, I am absolutely smitten with it, but since it is made out of wicker, it is solid and boxy, and doesn’t look good on my frame with the shoulder strap. So for me, it is a hand held bag only. And that makes it impractical for my lifestyle. So it is a special occasion summer bag, which means the cost-per-wear will be quite high.
But did I mention it is GORGEOUS? :D
Here it is on my lap, and as you can see, it takes up most of it. But I love it and realize it will spend much more time IN my closet than OUT of it.

Stunning 😍 i saw your unboxing on PURSEFORUM. It is beautiful and i love it but again it’s a novelty bag that comes with hefty price tag.
@THeartsBags I like this braided version more but it’s not a dealbreaker. You are right about the price raise. Nowadays my all cash are going to Chanel and Hermes. I’m on Hermes journey so you can feel me maybe my SA offers me a quota bag I should have some spare funds 😄 But my heart say grab it and mind says spend wisely.such a hard decision 😬

Yes, I understand completely about tying up a large hunk of money on a special occasion bag that isn’t likely to get a lot of use, and then feeling the financial pinch when a wish list bag suddenly becomes offered.
My weakness is bags. I spent many years making smart financial decisions (for the most part, lol), but a delicious handbag just removes all reason from my mind. I HAVE to have it.
So my advice is how much will you regret not buying this one? Do you think it will haunt you as one of those bags that got away, or is it a bag you really like, but not madly in love with? If it isn’t a madly in love bag, I would pass, because a madly in love bag will find you SOON, and you will be glad you passed.

Thank you so much for your detailed response! Very valid points I think Im going to order it then see how it goes. In this way the bag will not haunt me.

Thanks and enjoy your bags in good health 😊
 
Bought my first capucines. Decided to go for BB size and ostrich leather in colour Menthe/Mint.
Amazing service in Oslo/Norway boutique. Best in the world I would dare to say!! And they have all types of exotics in the store. Norwegian currency is very low now against USD and Euro and they give you a tax refund also (10% or smth). So, ladies and gents, run and buy 😂❤️🌺
I have attached fotos of other exotics I have been shown.

Congratulations on your beautiful bag! I bought my first green bag last year, and I am surprised how much I love it. Your green ostrich is stunning!
And that is great to hear about the Oslo Boutiuqe, I will be going there for the first time either next summer or summer 2026, and can’t wait!
