So I am looking to add to my collection. Currently I have a black caviar WOC and a white lambskin flap (which doesn’t get a lot of use to be honest!). I am in between a mini coco handle style, medium black chevron iridescent calfskin in black, or classic caviar medium flap ghw in black. What would you choose??
Which should I choose??

Where do you plan to wear this bag to or more importantly which one do you love the most? Knowing there might be a price increase soon, which one do you have to have now in your collection before the increase? All of your choices are good bags , it just depends on what keeps you up at night thinking about. That's how I determine which bag comes first.
Also, are all of these from the boutique or preloved? If the iridescent one is preloved, what year is it from? If it's from 2014-2016, I would not get it because the iridescent calfskin wear and tear was horrible those years .

Personally... I’d go with the classic. Or just get both before the price increase. I’ve also been debating a mini coco for a year now (in chevron white iridescent though), so I get the appeal of both. Something about the strap on the coco I don’t love however
Thanks!! So the classic caviar medium flap I would have to get on a waiting list for and it sounds like I would pay for it when it would come in, so If there is a price increase before it comes in, then I would be out there.
The black iridescent, I’m not sure what year it’s from but I’m attaching the tag if it helps??

That year is fine. That's from 2018. I would get classics but can't go wrong with any of your choices.
update us on what you get!
Why is there a waiting list for a classic bag? Are you talking about a new one from a boutique?

From your 3 choices if they are from boutique I would choose in order first choice is 1:Black Iridescent Medium (Iridescent is hot right now) 2:Black Med Caviar (can get year round but if you don't have one you probably want one it is common...) 3:Coco handle (too small for "no crossbody" and cloth interior)
I would go with the classics. If you are only going to buy "one bag" and that
is it than get the caviar. Note the medium classic does not crossbody unless you are very short. Have fun!

It’s just crazy to me that this iridescent one they have in the boutique is from
2018 but of course have to pay the 2020
Price!!

Yea I was thinking that. Look it over to make sure there's nothing wrong with it. It could have been that it was in the back and just found it???
yeah they said that they were completely cleaned out from the holidays and were just pulling things out from the back!
That's great! Nice find! The iridescent caviar was so pretty in 2018. Quality was good too. Just look it over though when you get it. I think in 2017, there were peeling issues with caviar but less with 2018.
the iridescent is aged calfskin I believe. Does that change your answer lol?
That might be why...aged calfskin doesn’t have a very appealing look. But I have been looking for a black chevron classic for a while so if you end up passing, can you please share your SA’s info so I can get it? Thanks!!
