Pulling the trigger on my first WOC! I normally don’t like WOCs but the 19 is much more substantial then the others and it surprisingly holds so much and quite light! The only thing I wasn’t sure about was the color, but I didn’t want black and felt that this is actually very versatile. What do you think?

Love it!! I have had a pink 19 WOC since March and it has quickly become one of my favorite Chanel bags. It is a great choice for a WOC, it can fit so much in it. I also love the color of yours :loveeyes:

Is there a difference on how much you can fit in a classic woc vs reissue woc vs chanel 19woc? I already have one in a fun color and thinking of buying another one in neutral color since it’s all I use these days.
 
I’m looking at purchasing my first Chanel bag, at the moment my budget extends to either
  1. WOC
  2. mini rectangular
  3. mini rectangular with top handle

I’ve sold/selling all my bags as I fell out of love with them so it will be my only bag am I being impractical in thinking I can get away with just a WOC as this is the only one of the three above mentioned available right now in Australia for me to purchase?

In fairness I generally don’t carry much on me however I want to be able to fit my new Chanel CF card holder and iPhone XR along with car keys at the very least

thank you :smile:
 
Just wondering if everyone feels a big difference between the snap and magnetic closure? I have been looking at one on the preloved market and came across both around similar pricing so I can't decide!

Not me!
My black lamb etc is about 10 years old and snaps, my green caviar is about a year old with magnetic snap, I still have to pay attention and line it up.

I own a mini rectangular and a WOC if I were to only have on it would be the mini. If you can find a mini with the handle get it, it’s a great choice. It’s a easy bag to carry, a great size it will fit your phone, small wallet and keys easily.

Good to know. Mine has the snap and is beautiful. Bought it, and then suddenly...the magnet was a thing. I wasn't about to go buy one just for the magnet, personally, but wondered if the change made a big or small difference.

Joining the club - a gift from my husband. :love: I’ve decided to get one already because I can’t take to buy one anymore after another price increase. Better late than never.:biggrin::lol:

Fellow Aussie here.

I have the WOC and honestly it’s been the best purchase ever. I’m a small bag type of girl. It fits my card holder, iPhone XS Max, keys + lippie/balm.

definitely recommend a base shaper as it extends the bag and makes it easier to use. I’ve had mine since July 2020 and used it as an every day bag

thanks hon, this helps a lot… I’ve definitely been leaning towards it as I think it’s still in stock and honestly worried I won’t be able to get the mini before the price increase
