The ❤Gabrielle❤ Bag: It's a HIT!!

[ChanelCanuck]

Small Gabrielle navy black combo or black~? Hi all, I recently have my name added on the waiting list for small Gabrielle. But I am on the fence between navy & black combo or all black. I put my name on the navy&black combo first as my SA told it will be in stock pretty soon. But I'm still in the huge dilemma and thinking if I should change my name to the waiting list of all black. I'd love to hear your input or see any mod shoot if possible. Thanks everyone : ) View attachment 4081170View attachment 4081171

I love the navy & black combo. I've only been lurking on this thread because I haven't had much interest in Gabrielle bags until I saw the navy/black in my local store (Vancouver) a few weeks ago and I can't stop thinking about it. Am considering buying that exact combo now!

I love the navy/black! I own it in medium, and it goes with everything......I also like that it’s something a little more interesting than all black but still neutral and without color transfer worries. Good luck deciding!

ITA.

I’m 5’7” and planning to wear it V shape.

So far, I haven't had any significant horizontal creases, and I prefer the V shape of wearing as well.

Forgive my Gabrielle newbieness! What's this "V shape" you mean?

Here's a link to wearing the Gabi in the "V" shape......it's basically one chain on each shoulder (with your head in between, if that makes sense). Essentially one chain is worn cross body, and the other on your opposite shoulder. It's so comfortable this way!

Saw this worn V-shaped earlier. For the first time ever, I found a Chanel I like!

I felt in love with this bag at first sight because of the v-shaped style too!
Unfortunately the new season is not launched in Hong Kong yet. (the sales from customer service said so)
Can't wait to see the black leather medium one in person.

I haven’t seen much mention or interest in the mini gabby size! I wasn’t a fan of gabby style until I saw this

I thought the Gabrielle is very ugly at the beginning, but now it became my everyday bag. The medium size is just perfect, I love it!!!

Today with my Gabrielle clutch with chain.

I already have a medium beige/black. Should I get a medium white/black, too?

So torn right now.

I have the blue/black one. It's surprisingly underrated for some reason. Maybe I'm in the minority for liking it. I considered the all black version as well as the black/beige; they're both amazing choices too. I am honestly shocked how often I use my Gabrielle instead of all my other Chanel bags and how this color combo does something for my wardrobe no other bag has managed to yet.

Hi! I have this combo and I find it classy and underrated. I am fed up with all the logo mania still trending...best choice IMO

I agree. The blue and black combo is very pretty. I think white & black is too similar to beige & black.

No, their are too similar. Unless if ur considering a small size.

This tweed material looks very nice! Any idea how is the wear of this material? Want to hear some comments about it too.
I am on the fence whether to get a tweed version or wait for a leather version.

I agree the beige/black and white/black are too similar, how about a mini version in a different colour? or consider tweed or the exotic leather?
