The ❤Gabrielle❤ Bag: It's a HIT!!

[aleung427]

I believe one without the extra handle is $3900. The one with the extra handle is around $4500 but I’m not 100% sure of that.

Thank you! Hopefully someone can confirm as well

Hi ladies! I need your help again. If you remember, I was previously after a metallic grey Gabrielle that I missed out on! Today I finally found saw someone selling it on a local website. So excited since I've been looking for it for ages! However, during my search the last couple of months I've also fallen for the so-black Gabrielle in chevron..... so now I'm stuck.

Seller for the metallic grey piece is asking for close to the same price as the so-black version - it does not retail anywhere and is hard to find, hence the slight mark up? Tho the so black retails for much more. I'm brown-skinned and pretty much in bight colours 90% of the time. Will you help me decide which I should go for?

I have the so black chevron and it’s very versatile. I love it so I am biased.

Hello Gabby friends! I officially received my new (to me) baby today! I purchased from Rebag, and I was impressed with their packaging. Only sign of wear is one knock on one of the corners on the base of the bag. Safe to say I am in love! I was a little nervous because I'm on the curvy side, so I wasn't sure I could pull off the v-look that I love so much, but to my surprise, it looks great!
I do have one question for everyone! Do you guys use Cadillac leather lotion on your Gabrielle's? I use it on some of the other bags I have.
This is my first Chanel, so I have a bit more research to do on proper care! Any tips are always appreciated

Hey! Great Purchase and find. I think the Gabrielle looks soo good on curvier, taller girls! Is this the large or the medium?

I'm considering a medium Gabrielle in a dark color for everyday. I like the slouchiness. I'd love to hear thoughts on this style used daily. Wear/tear and if it's cumbersome.

it‘s a mixed bag (pun intended)

The base will scratch so you need to just live with it. Even your fingernail will be dangerous. If you go for it (you should, it’s a great and creative bag) you should just accept it.

very helpful feedback. I need to take a look at some well loved bags to see how they break in.

Mine is about three months old. If you‘re interested I could take some pictures.

Yes please!

Here it is. I also took a photo of the scratches, they are very tiny and hairline-sized. This is what you can expect as wear and tear on the base. Babying doesn‘t help unless you want to constantly worry about the bag. I‘m happy that it doesn’t look worse since I fell down the steps with it and it... survived
I put in an Samorga organizer to help it retain its shape!

Wowww I LOVE this color option. I’m sold now hah. I agree I don’t like baby bags too much bc they are intended to be used. Especially this type of style. The other bag I’m considering is the black patent with black hardware 2.55, or a coco handle in black on black...

Beautiful! I have this in small chevron so black and it’s very resilient!

The Gabrielle is fabulous in so black! Very understated. Good luck deciding! I took some model pics to give you an idea how it might blend into an overall look (I‘m male though)
