I posted this in the Chanel chit chat thread also but thought I would post here as well.

Lamb vs caviar?? Ladies, I need your advice!

I'm going to Paris in a few weeks. I want to use a WOC as my main bag for traipsing around the city. I recently got my long-awaited black with SHW in lamb. It's my first lamb piece and I haven't even used it yet. I also have one in black with GHW in caviar.

My question is this...I hear over and over that lamb is NOT so very delicate, but would you advise bringing it on a trip? The silver hardware looks so much better with the blacks & greys I will be wearing, but I am skittish about choosing it over the caviar. I'm trying to pack lightly, so I don't want to bring both.

What do you think?
I love the look of lambskin.. I have my WOC in caviar because im not one to baby my bags but if you take care of it im sure it will be fine! Caviar is more casual & I feel like lambskin looks more luxe.
 
I m thinking to get a boy WOC , watched a lot of YouTube reviews . Someone said the part that rubs against the chain (on the side of bag) gets damaged quickly , is that true ? Thanks
I have a lambskin boy in Pink for almost a year now , and it holds really well. I have been using pretty frequently, and it still looks good. I guess that depends on how you use it. I am kinda carefully.

What a great thread!! I absolutely, hands down, love the WOC! I have 4 in my collection with one more one the way! I use it everyday (and have been) since Jan '17. I rotate on a quarterly basis or carry my more dressy one for formal events! Thanks for allowing me to express my [emoji813]️[emoji813]️ for the mighty WOC!

I’m someone that also carries everything (I chose a Maxi over the Jumbo for this reason alone). With that being said, I have no regrets purchasing my WOC. I use it when I’m at the airport, traveling for vacation or work, or simply running quick errands where I only need my cell/wallet/keys. It’s unfortunately being repaired right now (loose stitch) and I’ll admit... I’m having WOC withdrawals. My collection wouldn’t be complete without it.
 
Everyone here has been so influential! This will be my very first chanel purchase but I cannot wait to purchase a woc. I’m super excited!!! Waiting on finding my perfect preloved combo... black caviar with gold hardware or light gold hardware. Thank you all for all your posts. I really enjoy reading everyone’s experience.
@Aplus Chic, black caviar with ghw is my most used WOC and I think that you will also love it. Good luck on your hunt. I wore mine yesterday and here is a pic. :heart:

There is a thread for members who have had regrets purchasing a Chanel Woc. Do any of you have no regrets and love yours and are you glad to have it in your collection? If so when or where do you like to use it? TIA

I recently bought a WOC and I absolutely love it! It is perfect for running errands or day trips. It’s also great to use as a Clutch and tuck the chain in. I recently took it on vacation with me and it was the perfect bag. Easy to use and went with my evening wear!
