Default REISSUE TOTE......SIZES.......and HW??
so I called my FAVE Chanel SA Jillian today...and who is with her but my buddy Purse-onality...LOL....!!!!small world!!!...Loves ya girl!
Anywhohow..I plan on ordering the reissue tote.....ONLY the small and medium sizes have shipped thus far.She was concerned that the medium was WAY too small for me ..so NOW im considering waiting for the large one..YES,IM IMPATIENT!!LOL!

ANyway,Im buying it sight unseen..once again ...so to those of u that have SEEN IT..is the medium TINY?The measuremts are actually a TAD smaller than the jumbo...so Im thinking the LARGE one is best for me???What do u all think???HELP!Also.The OTHER pending issue....do I get the black reissue tote with SH or the black with BLACK HW????If I ADORE it..ill end up with the grey one too..i just know it..hehe

My SA KNOWS me reallllllllly well so when she says medium is SMALL for me..Im concerned enough to wait(VERY impatiently.....LOL)for the large...sigh....oh,The large is only like 200 dollars more...which isnt bad..

dudette! it was so much fun having a "conference" call today with you, me, and Jillian...........heehee
she is a doll, very pretty, very classy, kinda reminded me of the actress Ann Hathaway...that type...
and she adores you.....as do i...!


i am dying to see the reissue tote...how could i have been so careless and missed it while at Chanel today???? i do not admire myself 'cause of that! (was too busy fondling the Portebello bag (purse within a purse) and checking out the on-sale shoes.., i guess...

anyway i am looking forward to seeing you model your new reissue tote when you get it, as are all of us, i'm sure !

Jill, from what Brendan tells me the large is just a little bigger than the jumbo flap so I'm thinking it's a perfect size.

ooohhhh! waaaaah

When you need a Chanel
the craving is hell
there's nothing else that counts
you try to decide
On the style and the hide
and the obsession certainly mounts...
Should you tote a Tote
or pick a Flap
or have an In and Out
Sit on your lap...
Whether leather or metallic,
The gorgeousness is phallic...
& we PFers are all over the map!!

The MED looked almost as big as the Jumbo, but as Mon said, the large is supposed to be larger than the Jumbo... I'd wait to at least see the Large, there are plenty of Meds around right now.

Would you compare the small sized tote to a medium classic/226 reissue?

TIA!
