Hi everyone, I recently bought Chanel 19 in beige Clair Lambskin from cruise collection. I am wondering if you can tell me wether Lambskin or goatskin for this bag which one is more durable? I like beige color but I can’t decide between beige( with yellow undertone) with goatskin from f/w collection and beige Clair( less yellow tone) with Lambskin For this cruise collection. Can you please help me pick. Both in small size. I have pictures for reference. The first 2 pictures is beige Clair with Lambskin from cruise and bottom 2 is beige from f/w collection with goatskin ( pictures from IG please credit to owner).

I can’t talk about durability of lambskin, I have a small boy goat skin and use it intermittently with other bags and it has held up really well. As far as colors, the beige Clair is too light for me, but it’s totally a personal choice and what you have in your wardrobe.

Don't know anything about the leather types but I like the colour from f/w better.

Yes, I agree with you both! I was finally able to see the bag and chose the smaller (mostly for the slightly shorter chain length, the lower price point, and the fact that it fit SO much). But, I think I may want to add a medium as well in the future! The leather is soft and gorgeous, but also feels sturdy and not delicate like lamb. The bag isn't heavy and the top chain handle is so clever and makes the bag so easy to use. I also love the large back pocket that can be used for your cell phone (unlike the Mona Lisa pocket on the classics). I don't think a bag shaper would work in the small (it would eat up too much space) but def in the larger sizes. I also saw the beige tweed in the large - really gorgeous but too delicate for my lifestyle.

Definitely give it a chance! While it won't be for everyone (nothing is!) this one needs to be seen irl before you decide! (My SA told me that the prices for the 19 will start going up - even though it started high! - as they did with the Gabrielle once it was launched.)

I LOVE this bag! I reserved the small but they didn’t have any in stock for me to try on. I should be getting it this Friday. I tried on the large. How much does the small fit? Will it fit a full size wallet and a small cosmetics bag? I’m debating the smallest and large size...maxi would be ideal as a diaper bag. Thanks in advance!

Hi All,
I bought the small black 19 flap bag in black but am returning it. I love the look of it but having it for a week made me realize the style isn’t for me (see pic). I’m not sure what it is about the bag that doesn’t suit me. It really is beautiful but maybe it’s the extra large gold cc or maybe that gold chain that hangs down the middle which is used as a handle that bothers me, not quite sure. I’m thinking of just getting the black boy bag with ruthenium hardware instead. I already have a classic flap in the medium size so I think getting a boy Next might be the best thing to do. Any opinions out there on the boy bag? I think I feel more comfortable having something that is considered a classic and that’s been around for a long time.

So far for Chanel beige color I have are timeless classic in beige Clair, classic beige 19b, reissue beige from 19k and leboy beige calf skin from 17k. What do you think? I’m so stress with this color....

I got the small and it’s big- will def hold all my essentials. I feel like it’s the size of an old medium boy with a little more room bc it’s less rigid.

Took out my new 19 to admire and I noticed it has this thread coming off of it. It’s brand new, it just got delivered last night. Should I try to exchange or am I being nuts?
