Hello GST fans!

Thanks for all your kind words!

I received my white GST/gold hardware today and it's a true beauty!:heart: :heart: It is brand new indeed - everything they said it would be, still has tags on. Highly recommend Ann's Fabulous Finds.:tup:
I will ask about care of the bag at a later date:flowers:

Simply gorgeous! Major congrats on this find. I just use Meltonian leather lotion. Cleans and moisturizes the leather.

It’s beautiful! Congratulations!
On care, I don’t do anything with my white GST except maybe once in a while wipe it down with just a damp cloth with water, nothing else.

Congrats again! I’m so happy for you!
Thank you, wow I didn't know what I was missing all these years - just a beautiful classic simple elegant bag! Well I just had to baptize it of course.:shocked: I was washing my hands and they were not thoroughly dry. Oh i just had to stuff it with tissue paper right away and got two small water marks on the gray interior. It's dry now but the darker marks did not go away.

I'm not worried and going to enjoy it for a awhile but will take it to Chanel soon to see if they know how to get it out? something simple like a shoe repair place? I'm not sure of this fabric. If not there is always Leather Surgeons down the road.. I'm not used to the fabric lining as I only own the classics. Anyone can help with this?

On my suede SW 50/50 tan boots I have gotten water stains on them. I just put more water on them even and took a sponge they gave me and rubbed it out to even out the color. But I dare not with this!!:hrmm: Thank you.:biggrin:

Leave it. The more you mess with stuff, the worse it gets. It’s a nylon interior. I’ve gotten my bag wet on the inside with my water bottle. Maybe it will dry up overnight and if not, I would leave it.

Why would they use a fabric that water stains?
I don't have a clue. Most of the blacks have black lining and beige's have light, so it's not noticeable so no problem. On the white it's a darker silvery gray. It's dry now, no change and leaving it alone. I have to ask an expert on exactly what fabric this is. it's not totally a satin lining. More of a mix IMO.

Agreed! Will wear it when I go to Chanel and ask soon.

Thanks! Good to hear you still love yours especially in white! I'll write a post about it when I get it. I know I'm really late to the party but always admired this bag![emoji3] I don't think Chanel has recreated anything like it. I did talk to the SA's and they said "grab it"!. They said If it does come back which it may it will be twice the money.:yes:[emoji2]
Definitely I've seen second hand GSTs for sale for just under €3k which is alot higher than retail. The way prices are going, this bag was a "bargain" in the world of Chanel.
