I can't believe the boys are discontinuing the giant hardware i am so upset why are they? is Balenciaga discontinuing it as well? just when they got the right GSH and RGGH That means all we can order is rh does anyone know why?

Anyone had gotten the cheaper version of Chanel GST from Shaly before? If so how is it? She said it made of cowhide though. Hmmm

I suggest that you don't get it from Shaly, get it from Catty

Catty's GST's are better (cheaper and better quality).

If you take care of your bags, they won't get dirty. The beige gst from Catty is the same caviar leather quality as usual. It is not very firm or soft, it's perfect

boinquo, thanks so many bags but so little moolah!

ZenEssence, your Beige GST Chanel look lovely!! Love the Beige color but i scare i will dirty it easily..how is it going for you? What material it make of for the 'cheaper quality'? Soft or hard? Thanks

Hello ZenEssence This bag is the one that costs $300 on Catty's site?

Here are my pics of Catty's beige gst.

 

[ZenEssence]

Yes, it is. I am very happy with it...the quality is excellent

I do like this bag very much. But, I'm wondering if it's big enough for all of my stuff that I carry. How much can you fit into this bag? Can you show all that can fit in it?

Hi Zen, sorry for the late reply...was busy at work yesterday. This particular Chanel purse is not that big, it is just a medium size and I still love the size of the gst (which I also have one from Jacky). I just use this purse when I go on shopping or going to church which I don't need to bring with me too much stuffs. For reference, here are pics that I took to give you Zen and other gals an idea how much stuffs it could fit into it.

Here are the stuffs that was inside my purse

check book, stack of prayer books, calculator, two pens, wallet, reading glasses, small cosmetic pouch, small purse for my rosary, small (100ml) body spray, small (50ml) hand lotion, 2 cell phones.

Most of the times, I have to take out my prayer books (my prayers books are already 1.5 inch) and the check book so as not to have it more bulky.

All pics taken by me

Zen, I have the black gst from Jacky, but seeing your beige one from Catty made me want it on my list...but still having some second thoughts because of the price ($300) * sigh * Kinda broke, since I have placed two orders from J this week.

 

[ZenEssence]

Thanks for the pics of what can fit into the chain around bag. It is too small for my stuff

You can get the cheaper gst from Catty, it's not too much of a big difference at all

I have the black gst from J too, and it's a big difference from Catty's.

yes, balenciaga is discontinuing with giant hardware starting with the pre-spring 2012 bags...
all bags will have "giant" hardware that is the same size as the HW on the first/town...

Thanks for the info Zen I will look into Catty's site and will try her gst. Hugs!

I've always wondered on the quality of her Chanel's since her Google album is so full of them. The Balenciaga bags of hers I would obviously pass, the handles are a dead giveaway. A coworker couldn't see herself paying for T&D and went for Catty, only to give the bag to a friend in the end.

 

[Melanie87]

Yes, it is. I am very happy with it...the quality is excellent

THANK YOU
I really like your chanel.. i already have a light beige jumbo but i might sell that one and take this one

 

[koalabear]

ZenEssence, thanks! will have to save up more if getting the $300..her cheaper version..is almost $200 to me as well..

 

[crystal7]

thank-you kimair

What do you girls think won't the new giant hardware look too small on say the PT or work size? I can see it work with the first or city but I don't
think I will like it on the larger bags maybe it's a matter of getting used to it I hope so

 

[Blodeuwedd]

I think it will take some time, I know I spent all night (cough) going through lovebbags looking at pictures of the new spring collection and I think it does look good. No pictures of the Work/PT sizes but I think it might be ok as I prefer the Work with RH.

So..anyone who is looking for Celine Mini Luggage..Fang has it but the price is a bit steep $400. She sent me pics and it looks really good but feels like a lot of money for a rep...I want it though! lol

 

[baby_yorkie]

i think 400 for a mini celing is VERY expensive!

 

[IvyStar]

Babyyorkie, I know. It's very expensive that's why I'm holding back although I am quite obsessed with a black mini Celine.
