I haven’t seen any that spring to mind, but will keep you in mind! A quick google search brought me here: (but you might be looking for something fancier!)Has anyone seen any nice/classy initial bracelets? Or a bracelet with a little symbol on? I can’t seem to find any online

due my first baby in a couple of weeks so wanted a little something with their initialCongratulations in advance!!! That’s gorgeous news!!! XxxThank you
I love it and it’s such a beautiful bag but I never use it now I WFH and I want a new summer bag so whatever I get can go towards that. Just as a bit of info, had a look on Vestiaire at fees and it’s a whopping 15% plus 3% transaction fee. EBay is 12.5% so reckon I’m gonna try there first.This is a really interesting question and interested to read the convo that comes out of this, I’m always a Debbie downer so apologise in advance but I’d personally prioritise leather over any other material, even if that meant not buying a brand I’d had my heart set on. Or buying preloved - which if Chanel is your goal would probably be the better option anyway if you are concerned about longevity.
Sounds like we are on very similar pages, I’m just keen to hear the thoughts of others… I like to think of my luxury possessions as things I can pass on too…This is a really interesting question and interested to read the convo that comes out of this, I’m always a Debbie downer so apologise in advance but I’d personally prioritise leather over any other material, even if that meant not buying a brand I’d had my heart set on.

Not suggesting this is you at all btw just broadly speaking but I’d hope that people who’ve been priced out of the leather goods aren’t downgrading fabric bags because it’s such a waste of money and the brand has told you what they think about you so why keep pursuing them
When I was in the US years ago I went into one of the Chanel Neiman Marcus concessions as I wanted to look at a Tweed bag, and when the lady asked if it was my first/only Chanel (I was like 18 and very much only at the drooling stage) she said to only invest in leather bags as the tweed doesn't stand up to wear, tear and time. She said that the tweed bags were just for fun and if I wanted regular use I should go Caviar.
It’s good she was so honest with you! It’s true those materials aren’t really repairable whereas leather is, there are some lovely leather restoration videos on TikTok! But it’s possible to recondition, or dye, or repair scratches in a leather bag whereas it’d be game over for the other two. I also can’t help but wonder surely straw is going to become brittle and smelly within a few years? I don’t know if you can keep treating it in the same way you can leather?
Oh definitely - I have only gone leather with Chanel (and predominantly Caviar), and just had two bags in for repair with them - came out looking new, and the repairs weren't even too expensive (and much cheaper than options like The Restory)
I had the Cassandre and I returned it. It just didn’t feel worth the money and it was so fiddly to close!Hi all, hope you’re ok and don’t mind me joining this thread to pick your brains
I’m in the market for a small, nude bag with a long chain for evening wear. I’m torn between the Gucci Marmont Mini and the YSL Cassandre Envelope Chain Wallet. Does anyone have either of those and would recommend? Or have any other suggestions entirely? Thank you!
Thank you, thats a really good point for both of them actually! Might go for something more substantial instead.
I just don’t think the quality is there with entry level bags. Have you looked at the YSL college? It’s bigger and more expensive but the quality is beautiful.

Goddam basket season. I'm quite loving this aswell
Have you looked at Mulberry small Darley? I know quality varies with Mulberry but I have one of these and the quality on it has been amazing. I’ve had it for 6 years.
