My chains have finally arrived! :biggrin:I've bought two lengths - 60cm and 120cm in two styles: thicker and thinner. I've shortened the short ones to around 42 cm so that they hang perfectly and can be used together with long chains or by themselves. I'm very happy with the quality, they are substantial and heavy. The 120cm length is alright as a crossbody, but it's a bit too long as a shoulder bag (I'm 5'6"), so I might shorten them up a bit too. I think the thinner one looks very nice and casual and the thick one adds a bit of glam and dressy look. I've already put away the leather strap and I think I will use the short thin chain inside my bags (that way the leather one won't crack) and the thicker one for dressy occasions (like date nights or dinners with friends).

Honestly, I'm just as excited as when I first got the Pochette Accessoires. I think I love it a lot more now! I was debating adding the Eva, but I'm not very fond of the plate as it might scratch easily - the PA with the chain (and maybe later on with an adjustable leather strap from LV) will be the perfect little bag for me!

Here is the shorter, thinner chain:

The pictures don't really do them justice, they are a lot more beautiful in real life!

Stunning! Congrats! Are the chains from k-craft or somewhere else? I've got mine long & short chains as well however I only got the thiner ones. I didn't see the thick chains offered. Really looks amazing, especially the short thick one.

Thanks! I actually didn't go for k-craft, because I don't have an ebay account (it's not very popular in my country) and I'd have to pay for shipping. I came across this website called aliexpress - the shipping there was free and the chains cost me around 5-7$ each. I liked that there was feedback from customers with pictures of received items and all the reviews were good. I did have to wait about 4 weeks for them to arrive, but I wasn't in a hurry. I'm very happy with the quality, I was a bit worried they will be cheap and flimsy, but they feel very substantial and heavy. I'm a bit tempted to order more, because different chains give the bag a different look. I can totally recommend them!
