Today I purchased an orange tweed Chanel 19 in the “small”. I’m in NYC. As of Friday morning there was a green tweed in small and a turquoise tweed in small and that’s about all the tweeds left in the USA. Tweed is what made the bag worth it for me to buy (I love a good. Chanel tweed!!!) and I’m glad I found one available I liked. Green would have been my second choice (though that particular green is harder for me to style) and the turquoise tweed is just totally not my thing. I believe the Hudson Yards Neiman Marcus has a black leather maxi Chanel 19 left in stock. That would have been my third choice. (If I could choose anything that actually existed I’d have chosen the navy/black tweed bag and if I could have anything I want from my fantasy I’d have chosen a black and metallic threaded boucle tweed!)

Oh no! Can you polish it a little? I think it adds character. A bag well loved and worn is better than one sitting in the box. Every day I go into my cabinet and decide which one I’m going to use and I just imagine them saying “Mommy pick me pick me!” Lol
Cant ! Haha it made a real dent on the hardware and the finish was sort of rubbed off . And yes I look at it in a positive way and think that its lent the bag some character..like a secret between me and my bag [emoji16]

Hi everyone! I am wanting to get a bag that fits my laptop - 13 inch Macbook. Do you reckon it would fit in the Large size? I feel the Maxi will look way too big on me!

I believe the maxi will be the only bag that your laptop can fit in. Large size has a length of 11.7 inches (probably 11 inches of compartment space) while the maxi is 14 inches long.

Thanks Izzy, I guess I will try it in store - I was reading through the comments and it seemed like it runs bigger! Hopefully they let me put my lap top in to check haha!

Does anyone know if the large 19 bag will come in grey for spring/summer? And does anyone have a contact in NYC they can share? I have one but all the upcoming 19s have been reserved in her store already.
