I think part of my problem with it is also how shiny the leather is, I just bought the monochrome purple one from the current collection and I think it will fit better with my stuff

Hi everyone! I'm new to 22, I just purchased my first 22 mini in pearlescent color. I think the official color name on the tag is S23 silver/gold, on the photo it is the one next to my Lady Dior. I was specifically looking for a white or off-white summer bag. I really loved all
white bags on the photo, especially the one with the rainbow hardware. It was a really tough choice! I decided to go with the pearl one because of how soft and squishy the pearlescent leather was (very different feel from other 22 bags I touched in non-pearlescent colors). Additionally, I thought this color would wear better vs. pure whites, showing less color transfer over time.
I am curious if anyone here has a 22 or any other model in this colorway, how does it wear? How's the leather holding up? I'm starting to get worried that this pearlescent leather is so soft to begin with that it'll start peeling or falling apart. I know I said earlier that softness was one of the reasons I chose this bag, but if it's not durable I'll better exchange and wait until the regular leather softens up with wear. Also, I'm curious how come the boutique still had two of these available, given that it's S23. Does it mean this leather type is not popular? The color is neutral, so I'm really curious why these are still available.

I think we may be bag twins! I purchased mine in Italy last June :smile:

You have a beautiful bag! :biggrin:
How are you liking it so far? Is it wearing well, e.g. color transfer etc.?

Honestly, I’ve only used it a handful of times so I don’t think I could give a fair review with how it’s holding up and color transfer. I wear jeans a lot and i must admit I’m scared to use her with jeans!

I do love the color and feel of the leather as well :smile: I never saw the actual tag but I believe my receipt says the color is pearly Ecru.

Wow love your bags !! The teal is stunning ..would look good with white tshirt and jeans in summer and in winter with black or grey coat it would b a great pop of colour:)

The purple Matt leather looks so interesting and different , love it too..

These bags are so useful I’ve stopped using all my other bags ..so easy to use and comfy to carry ..I think I want a third Chanel 22 in a bright fun colour

Is there a way visually to tell what size a 22 bag is between the small and medium?

If there are four full diamonds (or very nearly) it is a medium, if not, it is a small. If you scroll up to the images of purple and the teal 22s above you can see clearly that the bag cuts off the two end diamonds in the row that the Chanel hardware sits in. Honestly, once you look at the two sizes long enough, you can spot the size difference pretty quickly without counting the diamonds, at least I can at this point ha!
