APRIL 2023 Chanel Purchases

Wasn’t sure if I wanted to replace my current LV key holder but I’m glad I made the move to. Wanted to carry less in my purses and happy to have my DL and CC fit with my keys. Slightly annoyed at the price though considering how much these were just a few years back. Thanks to my SA for scoring this for me! Saw preloved ones with inside scratches going for as much as a new one!

My second classic flap in Ecru from 23P
I saw the couloir on a Chanel 19 and couldn’t not hunt it down in a classic flap. The colour looks different depending on the light.

Technically a March purchase but collected and unboxed in April

I always wanted a Beige Clair with Silver hardware but the colour always felt a bit off to me. This one is the perfect colour. I hope the size works out for me as well.

Hi, could you share the tag please?
 
I bought my first Chanel bag, a Boy WOC for my BD back in 2021. In March, a pair of new to me booties, that I LOVE (from Esquire Fashionista -thanks!). I love what Chanel can do with a cap toe shoe or boot and I'm wearing my sling backs to death. I also have a cj necklace with unique 90's charms around.

But I wasn't entirely happy with my WOC purchase. Sometimes it is just too small, but I do love it. I was stuck in traffic yesterday and decided to go out to Saks in Bethesda to pick up something for my DDs graduation, and I ended up back in the Chanel corner of the store for me. The SA showed me some bags that were bigger than my WOC and I saw a beautiful pink lambskin flap with the camellia adjustable chain. She had it in black and I have it now. It is a perfect size when I need to pack a bit more. All these years I thought I wanted a medium Boy but I understand my hesitation in making that purchase and choosing the flap. Other than shoes, really, I'm done with bags. Really.

They’re both so gorgeous - congrats! Would you mind sharing the price of adjustable chain flap please?

I bought this in December from 23C and have been using it nonstop. I also switched to this from my LV 6 holder. While it’s definitely overpriced for what it is, it makes me happy every time I pull it out. It just feels so luxurious compared to the LV.

Hope you enjoy yours as well!!
 
My classic key holder came in today! But I wanted to get you guy’s opinion…there’s a few scratches and indentations upon opening it. My thing is, I can understand with use— it’d probably end up like this. But since it’s new from the boutique, it shouldn’t be in this condition. What do you guys think? Am I just being picky?
For context, my SA had to order it from another store and it get shipped to me so neither of us knew the condition of it. These key holders are so rare so I really don’t know what I should do. Help! Lol.

I’m wondering if maybe you can buff it with it with the cleaning cloth?

Its beautiful keyholder. However, the indentations are from the metal key holders and bound to happen when you start using it to hold keys. Enjoy using it. Maybe it will be less stressful to use.
 
Found my Medium Beige Clair with gold hardware in the Bal Harbor Chanel store. I had the most amazing SA and she pulled a fresh new Beige Clair bag out for me that was perfect! So excited since I haven’t been able to find this at home, I’ve been asking since January. I’ve heard on here that Warmer states get more of these so I was able to check here in FL while on Spring Break.

I’ll post more pics when we get home but was too excited to share now. Only snapped one photo of it still wrapped.

I was really impressed with the Bal Harbor store. They don’t sell you the bag on the their shelves. They had demo bags in a cabinet and pull out freshly wrapped bags from the back when you purchase, or at least in my case they did. I was so excited!

I’ll be over on Ban Island for the next few years after all of my purchases this year lol.

Thank you! I absolutely loved the service and being in a Chanel Boutique. Ours at home are Dept store boutiques and much smaller so this was heaven!

Unfortunately I had a real crappy experience at Cartier though so not all my shopping went well while in FL lol.
 
At Chanel in Munich - 2 weeks ago - just wanted to leave the store when I saw this little beauty out of the corner of my eye ; - ))) what should I say - it was a very spontaneous decision and now she is mine :heart: WOC in pink goatskin with mother-of-pearl shimmer.
I am very happy and looking forward to take her out for the first time very soon ....

(as I really don´t know if the WOC that I purchased from a reseller will ever arrive - but this is another story)
