Hi ladies!! :smile: I popped in to Bloomie's in the city today to do a little shopping... I swung by Chanel and spoke with the nicest SA (who, of course, is leaving in two weeks time haha, go figure). :P While we talked about Chanel, I flipped through the look book (no pics, sorry) and saw that there is going to be a metallic BROWN (not gold, which was also listed) reissue!!! :love: :nuts:

The other colors listed were gold, silver, green, navy, purple, red (I'm pretty sure), black, etc. (all the usual suspects we already know about). :smile: So I have no idea if Bloomie's is planning to order this metallic brown reissue (neither did the SA), or who might for that matter... it looked soo pretty, and thought I'd let my fellow brown bag lovin' pfers know!! ;)

Ohhh, and from the small color swatches I drooled over, I also noticed that the green reissue didn't look like a dark, forest green to me (the SA agreed too)... it seemed lighter and brighter, which I'm hoping for (although my cc sure isn't)! :P The perforated crackled metallic calfskin bags also show a green, and in that pic, the green looked olive-y green, so maybe the reissue will be that color too... who knows). :nuts:

fiery - i saw the chanel lookbook today and saw the color swatches for the 2.55. the green does look olive-y green rather than a deep dark forest green. it's very light and very neutral.

Hi! :smile: Ohhh, okay, good to know! :smile: I remember some pfers mentioning that the green was a bubble quilt type forest green, and I think one pfer even saw it in Paris (not sure about this though)... in any case, I'm really excited, because I think a lighter, more olive-y green is easier to wear (well, for me anyway haha), and would look so pretty in an iridescent metallic. :love:

Hi! :yes: Unfortunately, I have no idea, and neither did the SAs. :sad: I *think* the book had the metallic brown reissue listed under Act I, and if that's true, it could be in anytime between Jan-March! :nuts: I would suggest calling the SA and getting on a list! :tup:
