Where are my classic girlies at? Help me pick my next bag!

[ashooz]

Hi everyone!

I’m a very basic/classic girly and my birthday is coming up so I’m trying to be mindful of my next bag purchase.

My current Chanel bag collection:
- WOC red lambskin silver hw
- 19 small black lambskin silver hw lead (tri-color hw)
- Classic flap medium black caviar silver hw
- Classic flap rectangle mini black lambskin light gold hw

My wish list:
- Classic flap in small or medium caviar and silver hw in either beige or white
- Classic flap rectangle mini lambskin with light gold hw (unless they release silver or so black) in beige or white

It seems like beige caviar small or medium flaps with silver hw will be easiest to come by, while it seems they don’t make beige minis currently and white is very hard to come by. Anyone have beige or white minis? How are they to take care of given the light color and lambskin only options in the minis?

Thanks everyone!

Hi @ashooz, personally, I would get a caviar white or beige with the SHW. Although I am not afraid of lambskin and light colors as I was once before, I still think colors like white and light beige are better in caviar. I can’t say much about lambskin mini in white as I currently own a caviar CF in white, but maybe you could check here other threads and ask others that own the lambskin white mini GLD!

@ashooz - For light color bags, just be mindful not to wear dark color clothes with minis (avoid colors transfer), esp wearing crossbody.

So far no issues (knock on wood) with my light color minis (white crumpled calfskin and beige caviar) as both used oftentimes.

Hope you find your next CC eye candy! Happy shopping!

I adore my beige clair in caviar! Love the color. I avoid wearing it with dark clothing, but you can wear it with jeans as long as you keep the strap doubled. I also recommend using a bag liner to keep the inside clean. Let us know what you decide!

I would not get light color lambskin. I think it’s very hard to take care of. I am also not a big fan of minis. I am 5’3” and I dislike wearing bags crossbody and I also do not prefer to adjust strap under flap. I do love double flap and the internal structure of double flaps. So for me the choice is clear.
