Today, I’m gonna talk about the Boite Chapeau Souple MM. This little cutie has been on my radar for a while. I finally took the plunge and got one for myself.
First off, I started by doing some serious online window shopping. I read a bunch of reviews and watched some unboxing videos. People were raving about the size of the MM, saying it’s just right for daily essentials. So I thought, why not?.
Then, I started thinking about the size. There’s the PM, the MM, the Petite, and even a Mini. It’s a whole family of hats! But I learned that the Souple version only comes in PM and MM. I was initially leaning towards the PM, but then I saw some folks saying the MM is better if you want to fit more than just a phone and a lipstick. Decisions, decisions!
Size Matters
- Petite/Mini: These are super cute but super small.
- PM: Good size, but I wanted something a tad bigger.
- MM: Seemed like the Goldilocks choice—just right.
After much debate, I decided to go with the MM. I figured it’s better to have a bit more room than not enough, right? Plus, that luggage tag detail is just too adorable to pass up. I also compared prices and noticed that the Boite Chapeau bags aren’t cheap. The price for Boite Chapeau Bag is around $2,370. But hey, it’s an investment in style, I told myself.
When the bag finally arrived, I was like a kid on Christmas morning. I carefully opened the box, and there it was, in all its glory. The monogram pattern looked super crisp and sharp. I had seen some replicas online, and honestly, the real deal just hits different.
I spent the next few days trying it out, packing different things in it. It comfortably held my phone, wallet, keys, a small makeup pouch, and even my sunglasses! I was pretty stoked about that. The size really is perfect for everyday use. It’s not too big to be a burden, but it’s not so small that you have to play Tetris with your stuff.
I’ve been using it for a few weeks now, and I’m really loving it. It’s a bit structured, which I like, but it’s also got that “Souple” softness to it. I found that it’s limited to certain sizes, with the PM and MM available in the Souple style. The other styles like Petite and Mini are non-souple, meaning they’re more rigid, but I like the Souple better.
Overall, I’m super happy with my Boite Chapeau Souple MM. It’s a bit of a splurge, but it’s been worth it for me. It’s stylish, practical, and just the right size.
So, that’s my little journey with the Boite Chapeau Souple MM. Hope this was helpful for anyone else thinking about getting one!
