Next to [hopefully] go to a loving mommy is the gorgeous Chanel 07A dark brown GST.
In addition to Chanel flaps, I am a huge fan of Chanel classic totes. It actually pains me to sell this (and I will probably have seller's remorse so don't be surprised if this is off the market in the near future) because this is the old (pre-2010) version of the GST and I know it will be much harder to find should I decide I want it again. Here's the aesthetic changes done to the GST in 2010: (1) The eyelets/rings on the bag holding the chain is now flat, wider, and engraved, (2) The stitched on leather flat CC logo piece is now stitched into the exterior so the CC is quilted as well, (3) The canvas lining is now a satin lining, (4) The inside D-ring is now a key hook. Also, this is not a confirmed change but it has been personally noted that the caviar on the new GSTs are not as stiff and sturdy as older GST (take note Chanel, we are not a fan of the declining quality!!). I had a 2010 black GST and after one full day of using it (half of the time it was on a chair), the corners already had scuffing because the caviar was much softer than older caviars.
There are some changes that I would love to have on this GST (such as the engraved eyelet and the key hook) but overall I prefer this version to the new version. The sturdier caviar and canvas lining of this tote makes this a great candidate for an everyday tote.
