And guys, please tell me that I'm out of my mind to consider getting this scarf...



I mean, it's cute but it's just a striped scarf, right? RIGHT? (Secretly wishing someone would enable me into buying it. )

No, it's not just a striped scarf, it's a Chanel striped scarf .
I like it, to be honest.
I saw a silk scarf (blue with red) and that one is very tempting for me. And I also like the black bracelet with pearls.
And have I mentioned that I like the bubble flap too ?
A lot of eye candy in this collection, but which one to pick?

J...Thanks for posting the info! You're back to CJs collection!

I want this keychain for my Mlle Coco , how big is it? I got to check if Canada order any, but I love another Cruise scarf ( the pink & blue silk scarf). Hopefully, I can get them when I'm heading to the boutique next week (in person finally).

Oh that beautiful blue medium flap!!!! Wish caviar is available!!!~~ I make it as my laptop background right away LOL!

I got to see three more items in addition to the necklace I got when I went to the boutique yesterday. They had the charm bracelet, (the same kind as one in Saks order book posted in this forum) black and white pearl necklace with large size Mlle Venise used as the pendant, and the key chain that's featured on Chanel.com.



I forget who but a tPFer posted a pic of the simple silver chain necklace with Mlle Venise charm at October buy thread as well. But I have no idea which store (if any in US) are getting it.

Ah, you are bad as my SA! I don't know why I'm drawn to stripes of all sudden. I was ordering some Uggs a month ago and noticed that one of the new styles are these leg warmer like wool ones with horizontal stripes in white and navy. LOL. Wouldn't it be hilarious if I get those boots and get that scarf and wear them together?

Which bubble flap? The striped ones from cruise? Oh, I thought it looked soooo much cuter than how I expected. (And now I'm imagining myself with striped Uggs, striped scarf and the striped Bubble.)

Is anyone getting those? I think it was no for the boutiques... And I know it's no for Saks as well.

Hi, Ceci! I think the charm used for few styles of necklaces, belt, key chain and the brooch are the same size. I think it was big as my pinky. Good thing about it is that it's made of metal, not plastic like some of their charms.

However, are you sure you don't want the necklace? I thought the pendant necklace was quite nice. It's just about an inch longer than the version I got. It got pearls all around and the large Mlle Venise charm is used as its pendant. And if you don't care for the pearls, I thought the lone charm necklace with metal chain is cute too. I kind of wanted it so I can wear it casually, not having to worry about breaking the pearls.

ETA : Here's a pic posted by a tPFer in October thread.

^ J, you are such an enabler!
Oh well...necklace is not going for me as I carry my Mlle Coco most of the day & I'm worry...I stop wear ring & brooch for a while too...& you know I don't need earrings So, the keychain would be the only option...but I think I may go with the scarf instead...it has all my favorite colors..wish me luck at the boutique next week then!~

Oh, I forgot to add... My SA showed me the blue caviar (in jumbo, that is) among many things yesterday. But to tell ya the truth, it didn't wow me much. I mean, it was nice but certainly not the eye popping color I was expecting. If you like how blue lamb from Chanel site looks, I'm guessing you'd be disappointed by blue caviar.

Or, do you think I'm just not liking how pebbly it looks in caviar leather? LOL. But I was also shown red lamb yesterday and I actually liked 09C caviar better.

^ Thank you & I trust you about the blue caviar...that's why I pass & keep dreaming for my perfect combo...I know how the photos, especially shown on computer screen, will not really reflect the actual color of the piece. I try so hard to capture my own 09P & sometimes, I love the color in the photo rather than what I see IRL!! Lucky you be able to check out the stock at the boutique...don't really enjoy buying unseen!!!~

But, do you think the blue lamb shown on website show the real color? I thought it's more like cornflower blue as said by Minal.

I didn't get to see blue lamb yet, so I can't tell if that pic is good representation or not. Caviar on the other hand, was definitely not instense looking as the lamb on Chanel site. It's got darker hue than the electric blue flap you wanted.
