- CHANEL CLASSIC FLAP vs CHANEL LE BOY - WHICH SHOULD YOU BUY? DIFFERENCES, PROS AND CONS, PRICE DIFFERENCE, WEAR AND TEAR AND - WHICH IS THE BETTER INVESTMENT? In this video I share with you my opinions based on buying and selling luxury. If you are thinking of buying your first Chanel handbag , or are adding to your designer handbag collection, and are unsure on whether to buy the Classic Flap or the Boy bag, I share with you my thoughts and insights on what colour, size and material to buy each in to achieve the most profit if you ever choose to sell.
In summary (if buying with a view to future investment):
Classic Flap; buy in either medium or Jumbo size. Black with either gold or silver hardwear. If you want to use the bag and not have to worry about damage - get the caviar! Avoid patent.
Boy; Sell best in either medium or large. In my experience, the Boy bags perform best in fun colours and robust materials, as opposed to plain black. Boy is prone to 'saggy bottom'.

I don't think I'll ever buy a designer handbag but I like looking at them and listening to you talking about them. Chanel bags are beautiful but just too expensive for the practicality (I trash my bags and I don't really like to baby my bags). Fab video as usual xx
Jess T You can buy pre-loved if you ever want one. That boy thing is so ugly.
mizzmolly Ok. To me, these bags are for those who go about light - a card holder and essential cosmetics (lip balm and powder).
mizzmolly bah ha ha....I only need a midsize crossbody in my life :)
I love the classic flap, it's sooo classy!
I love love love the info on classic flap and now starting to love boy bag all the more.
Thanks Sophie you are very nice and beautiful charming lady. I love your accent very much. Keep up the good work.
Sophia sweetheart when it comes to fashion you are awesome you are the only woman that I watch and I'm not complaining on everybody on here but I noticed you have had 150 views and only 15 thumbs up come on everybody let's get it together and support this channel the right way and go the extra distance and hit that thumbs up hope everybody's having a great week God bless and take care
+Roy Nelson oh my gosh, what an absolutely lovely comment Roy and Claire - THANK YOU 🙏🏽❤️ I am grateful for such kind and positive subscribers such as yourselves xxx❤️❤️❤️
Sophie Shohet | Fashion Beauty Lifestyle thank you so much hun I truly enjoy your videos even though I'm a guy but it does give me good tips smiley faces I hope you guys have a wonderful week always good to see you and your main man you guys are wonderful people
Yeah I totally agree Claire I've been watching Miss Sophia for about a year now I'm going to start sharing more of her videos especially for the ladies on Facebook and Google that's the least I can do
The boy bag is to die for😩
I was really torn between the boy and the Diorama for several months and went and purchased the Diorama last Saturday and was made up that I got it in the colourway I wanted (I wouldn't have purchased it otherwise......I got the black grained leather with silver hardware in the medium). I think the Diorama is much better value and quality for money and they're almost identical. Every time I picked up the boy bag, I kept thinking how little you're getting for your money! They're so light (but beautiful nonetheless), but felt that I couldn't justify the cost and as the Diorama is almost £1000 cheaper, it just means that I can now put this towards another bag; it might take me a year to save for it, but i've got a head start LOL xx

Lambskin is so beautiful but I always go for caviar. Great review!
Love how you reused your Dyptique candle when it was done, for makeup. Thanks for the idea👍
I really hope that one day I can afford one of these bags!
I have a 1990s Chanel bag and its in caviar and it is still in very good condition!!
I also recommend the classic caviar bag the boy back is more trendy now but I'm not sure will last like caviar from 10 years also the chain is so big and more masculine looking
I love how informative this was, I’ve always been terrified of spending that much money and then ruining the bag, I think I’d have heart failure haha!
Great vid as usual Sophie🕺🏾... I’m cringing in anticipation of the Chanel price increases... been fantasising about the classic flap for ages but the ever so frequent price reviews just makes it more and more elusive 😩😢
I saw you in Harrods the other day and was too shy to say hello but you looked gorgeous that day!
The newer Chanel flap bags definitely do have more structure to them! I have quite an old small classic flap in lambskin and it’s quite squished at the bottom as of doesn’t have the same structuring. Loved the video btw
My dream bag is a vintage Chanel large black lambskin classic Flap with gold hardware 😍😍🙌🏾
I still think of the beautiful mermaid bag :(
Dani M me too with her and chanel boys
me too! I hope someday to get it.
I️ love this video, it’s incredibly informative!
I’ve been in love with the classic flap ever since I’ve learned about the history as to why Chanel created it the way it is...from the details on the chain to the small hidden pocket for her letters from her lover. Think I’ve been dreaming of it since I️ was in 8th grade, and I️ just graduated university last year.
Hopefully once I’ve settled more into my career, I’ll finally invest in a Chanel! I️ remember the price being around 2k and now the increases have been outrageous, but I’m determined to own one!!
Hi Sophie, I love all your videos! I cannot understand why Chanel does not put feet on their bags! So many other designers do this and it really helps the wear and tear on the bags. Have a great rest of your week! Kim
Really informative and good to know. Thanks Sophie. I've only recently discovered your channel so am currently binge watching your videos! I love them! You deserve much more recognition xx
Simply adore your videos. I just purchased my second classic flap, it is my fave by far. Although I think the Boy looks lovely on other people. xx
Great video idea, Sophie! I love both bags and this was helpful in narrowing my choices down. Thanks!
I've learned so much from watching you. This is such a good comparison video between the two bags. Not to mention I absolutely love all three of the bracelets you show at the end. The bags are out of my price range right now, I just admire from afar and learn as much as I can should my situation change, but the Clic H bracelet is very doable. Unfortunately, the Hermes Canada website doesn't have it in rose gold plate with white enamel. Will have to find out more about that.
Hi Sophie,
Another great video just love the Chanel bags , you present them so professionally makes me want to go out there and get one ASAP . Seen all your videos and always look forward to the next one many thanks for all your advice
Sophie, you look so pretty. I've been watching you now for a year and I'm so happy that I found you.
Thanks for sharing ur honest opinion about the resell value of these bags my lady! 👍🏻😘😘😘Sandy
This is such an informative video. My Bestie is planning to buy a Boy bag and I think she will benefit from watching your feedback
that oil slick boy bag is just gorggg !!! I like how u compared the wear on the classic vs boy. good video Soph
Excellent comparison and advice Sophie. Thank you.
This was super helpful! Thank you!
I have to say the Chanel Le Boy is more appealing to me, simply because of the beautiful colours it can come in. I find the design itself a lot more sleek and youthful as well.
I love this video! Always great to get pointers and tips on investment pieces.
I just love the tops you've been wearing, Sophie!
blessings
Very informative and helpful video as always - thanks for sharing! x
Wow I’ve never seen you wear chokers - they look great! I am especially loving the Dior one, tres chic 💕
Hi, Thank you for this video. Lots of Great information.
The less flimsy part of the bags are filled with cardboard between the leather. That’s why certain part of the bags are stiff. The more squishy part is just leather and no cardboard to keep shape.
Thank you so much for your insight - such great points.
Would a piece of Plexiglas cut to fit inside the bottom of the Boy bag help with the saggy bottom? If you get a piece of Plexiglas, make sure you sand the edges smooth after having it cut. I use sandpaper to smooth the edges or sometimes a fingernail file for acrylic nails. On thick Plexiglas I use the fingernail file. Another very informative vlog. Thank you.
Jan Marie Brunette-Hunyady does it really work?? I have a boy bag in lamb skin..is it gonna be the savior?? 😫😭
I've done it with tote bags that I have that needed to be structured. I wanted one tote bag to carry a large bowl when it was my turn to bring something to work for pot luck luncheons. I use cardboard to make a template and then I had my local hardware cut the piece and then I did the sanding. The thicker Plexiglas works for when you need to support heavier objects but it adds very little actual weight to your tote bag. With the lambskin just be extra careful that you make the edges smooth.
Jan Marie Brunette-Hunyady thank u for the tip!!!💜💘😊
Has anyone else seen the LED boy bag? Great vid btw 💜
Sarah Cantrill I did at comic con. It was amazing
I have and it LOOKS AMAAAAAAAAAAAAZING. Often these tech/fashion things end up being cheap with wires everywhere and just a hot mess, but leds are seamless.
There's a TH-camr called Howshespendsit who has that bag, she did a massive haul with the rocket ship bag too
The LED bags are seriously awesome!!!!
MITCHELL WIGGS She’s like the queen of luxury on YT 🙌
Hi Sophie, your makeup looks amazing. Could you please make a video about it?☺️
I love what you’re wearing too . Great video
hi - just an fyi - you look pretty in the cranberry colour.
Sophie! Please do a video with your thoughts on the Chanel Cruise 17/18 collection! x
Is Boy bag on the way out now? Do you think it will be discontinued in next few years?
OMG I clicked in 0,1 second when I saw that video! :) thats exactly what I needed, I have exactly this dillema right now which one of those two to choose and I know you are an expert and I trust you judgement so much :)thank you for that video xo
Sophie all your handbags 👜 are gorgeous
The classic flap is my all time favorite chanel is an investment.. that would definitely be my buy...never been a fan of the boy ...
Im in love with chanel!! I dont have a chenel bag and i wont in the nearest furture.. But im pretty sure that I want to find one with a single flap, even if I have to get a speciel "cruise" bag... I'm just not a fan of the doble flap.. Its annoying.. And im not into the boy.. Its to bulky and harsh..
Loving your videos recently xoxo
The link of the tunic is wrong, it's linked to the watch website. BTW I love your style so much, I think you always look so beautiful and elegant. ^^
Great tips!!! Thanks for sharing!!
Sophie, the link is not correct for your top. Love your videos ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I have the classic and I love it
Anyone noticed her nail color changes throughout the whole video? 🤣
Love you, Sophie ❤️ You are amazing
Great informative vid! Link for the tunic is taking me to the watch site?
I like a boy on caviar
LOVE YOU, AS ALWAYS SOPHIE! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hi Sophie, love and subscribed to your chanel. I'm thinking of getting a jumbo preloved. Would you like to comment whether the single or double flap is a better purchase?
I love these helpful types of videos. Xxx
Wanna know the nail polish you wore in this video, looks so chic!
so informative! thank you xx
Dear Sophie, i am always wondering which pink nailvarnish this is. very pretty
Seems like the Boy has a lot of wear issues. Would the Diorama be a better alternative for longevity and a similar look?
WILL THE PRICE INCREASES EXACTLY IN THE FIRST WEEK OF NOVEMBER EVERY YEAR ?
Loved the video😱
Hello sophia,
which one should I get a coco handle bag or classic flap Bag?
Is coco handle a timeless bag ?
Great video thank you for sharing
Would you do a video on the best luxury belts? 😊
I'm obsessed with the J'Adior choker!
Hi Sophie, what do you think the weight of the jumbo compared to the boy? I feel like my boy in new medium is really heavy so I'm not sure if the jumbo will be a good fit for me :(
What was the information for the comfortable heels in this video? The link from Saks isn't working
Can you give us the link for your top?
I love watching your videos....you are darling...and love to hear you talk...
I have the chanel jumbo in GHW. But I want to get another chanel, do I get another jumbo or medium? or the boy bag or the backpacks? Help!
What are your thoughts on the reissue? Thanks
Hi! Does anyone know exactly which collection that gold boy bag was from? Or the code? Thanks x
What do you think of the lv speedy in the middle size with canvas damier? x
WILL THE PRICE INCREASES EXACTLY IN THE FIRST WEEK OF NOVEMBER EVERY YEAR ? I'm going to buy November month 2nd week.. will that be okay????
Please can u do a video of diorama vs CHANEL boy? X
Michelle Wong i
why avoid patent....? I am thinking about buying patent
what is the color name of the boy silver bronze bag?
what do you think of the chanel coco curve?
Hi Sophie, may I ask which type of Louboutin heels you’re wearing on this video? The link doesn’t seem to work... thanks in advance!
I am wondering the same thing.
She's gorgeous.
what year is your boy bag?
I always see black chanel bag. Is red or beige good
Which one is more expensive?
Sophie, I heard that Chanel is using goat skin for the Boys now. Looking at the website, ir seems to be true, and if that's true, they should be somewhat less delicate now.
Where can I purchase a Chanel online?
Classic flap sooon
I love your chocker.
I really like both but I’m thinking if I’d want an everyday bag so what’s the best I’m thinking about buying my 1st Chanel bag
169th !!!
Maybe you can put a piece of cardboard in the bottom so it doesn’t sag.
Sarah Ko wow! Coco Chanel will flip in her grave if she finds out that people putting a piece of cardboard in her bags.
You are gorgeous!!
Where is your shirt from?❤
💓
I think boy bag is ugly. I would get the classic definitely
I choose dior. Chanel is too common and to me, it has lost its charm
Im curious, what country do you reside where Chanel is too common?
Simone DeCarlo looool for real! Chanel is so classic and will be forever a great bag it never goes out of style!
meiltoo in fact, chanel bags resale value is much higher than dior bags
