I looked through this forum and I didn't see (could have missed it, maybe) the Gabrielle Mini Drawstring. Does anyone have this bag and if so could you please post a modeling picture. After returning my damaged Coco Handle my sa showed this bag to me and i really loved it...I had an issue with the handle however. If worn crossbody it seemed to get in the way. Maybe it is just me. The bag she showed me was red, alas a more tomato red. She had a beige one too but that's the last color I need. Any help would be appreciated.

Has anyone purchased the mini Gabrielle hobo bag in all black distressed calfskin from Act 2? I saw it on the list but can't recall if I have seen someone sharing it in the forum...so wondering if it is really part of Act 2?

Thanks!

I thought the black was for act I and act II has the white/black, light purple, Metallics and tweed colors, but I very well could be wrong. I just am assuming from the website and from what I've seen in stores lately.

I saw it on the list from the Act 2 thread but as you said I can't see any black calf in the recent store stock and the official website so I'm getting nervous. Maybe it's not part of Act 2 after all......[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
 
Stunning! We are bag twins. I love the size of this bag. So lightweight, but can fit so much. (size medium for reference) I might be tempted to get the large next season or so after I come home from ban island.
I love the medium size but I am very minimalistic in what I carry with me ;). I must confess I'm a bit worried about wearing this bag and getting it ruined as the colour quite light. (I usually buy black or blue bags) !!!!

I saw someone uploaded this a few weeks ago, and as you can see the tag to the small gabrielle is 17K. :smile:

Hope it is alright to post a question to all Gabrielle owners -- is anyone using the Gabrielle hobo is a travel companion?

I was never into the Gabrielle when it was first launched but now have myself on a list for the iridescent light purple Gabrielle which should be arriving soon at my boutique! So excited!! :yahoo:

The zipper and crossbody function of the Gabrielle seemingly would make it a good travel bag?? Yes?
But with the base being prone to scratches and dents? No??

Would the Gabrielle be a good travel bag and if yes, would the black on black Gabrielle be a better option than the iridescent light purple??

Thank you lovelies for all your help!:hbeat:

At the beginning I did not like Gabrielle at all and was wondering who would buy such a bag:). However, since I got my Gabrielle medium in black, I have not used any other bags. I bought her on my trip to Brussels and started using her right away. In addition, she was travelling with me to London this week and once again proved how convenient she is for travelling. I did not notice any scratches or dents though I was using metro in London, which is very busy and you just can not protect your bag. The purple one is beautiful and pretty neutral I must say, so I believe it can be used as good as the black one, however I do not feel comfortable with pink/purple and similar colours, hence I opted to get a black one. But that is just me being silly:). Anyway, both colours are beautiful and in my opinion very convenient for travelling especially because you can wear the bag in so many different ways:)
 
Aww thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! Really appreciate it!
I will wait to see the iridescent purple in person and decide whether to go for it or stick with my usual black(every single one of my Chanel is black!)

I am similar to you:), besides few white and beige bags, I stick to black 90% of the cases:) My favourites are even So black Chanels, though Gabrielle is now coming close to So black collection:)

Haha you're my twin! My Chanel's are not only black, but so black too! I have the so black chevron reissue, the so black classic flap from pre-fall this year, and a so black boy too! Hence the extra thought processing towards making this non-black Gabrielle part of the family.. :confused1::giggle::girlsigh:
