I just called customer service and spoke to a really nice representative. She told me that all the 25 bags in all sizes and colors are currently sold out. 😭 I'm hoping that Chanel will do a re-stock of the light blue in medium - I can't stop thinking about this bag!! If anyone sees this in the shops in the U.S., please let me know. TIA! ❤️
Is this correct though? I feel like I’ve seen a few us based personal shoppers show it recently. I’ve been mulling over the small silver for weeks about hoping that boat didn’t fully sail

It was probably correct the day that I posted. 😅 The rep also said the stock is often changing so that I should try calling and see if there is new availability. The silver in small is gorgeous (based on the photos I've seen).

I need advice. I'm going to spend 2 months abroad from next month, mostly in Paris and then a week in London and a week on a cruise in Norway (wet and rainy). I can't bring that many bags with me for such a long trip and I'm torn between taking my light pink small 25 bag or dark grey small 22 bag - I feel like the latter is the rationale choice because it's a fuss free colour with no risk of colour transfer, and is more secure and safer since it closes more securely. But how can I not bring my 25 bag, the IT bag of the season, when I'll be in Paris for summer. LOL. Worried about theft though and also light pink isn't fuss free at all.

Thoughts?
 
Can you roll up the 22 and carry both to destination? The darker color will be more care free for sure, I'd take both if you'll carry them. Otherwise I'd choose one and a night time appropriate bag as well.

I'm planning to take a mini 2.55 (less flashy and more IYKYK), and also a faure le page tote that can fit a laptop. Maybe a Murakami pochette accessories as well since it's so compact. So I won't take both the 22 and 25 as they are both similarly sized shoulder bags!

denim or caviar Chanel 25? Which would you recommend? I keep seeing this bag everywhere and really want one, but not sure which to get. I’m thinking of trying to get either the light blue denim one or the black caviar one. Can anyone comment on which one they prefer? And I heard the caviar for the 25 is softer than caviar leather for CFs, is that true? Leaning more toward caviar if that’s the case!

I’ll vote for denim due to the casual and give the bag an even more relaxed/slouchy look. However if we are talking color, I would prefer the black caviar over light blue denim but that is just a personal preferences. Since this bag is now on a permanent collection, I think you’ll be able to get a classic black caviar if not this season, maybe the next season but denim might be more seasonal. It’s a beautiful bag after all, you’ll do alright with either choices ;)

I caught the Chanel 25 bag like you, and just scored the black caviar in size small (I'm in the U.S.). I didn't think it was possible to get one, but apparently they are re-stocking their supply. Try calling Customer Service to see if they can locate one for you. You might need to call regularly since the stock changes all the time. I'm still looking for the medium size in dark blue, and so far, no luck.

The caviar leather is indeed very soft and smooshy in comparison to the leather used for the flaps, and I have a preference for the black over the denim simply because I wear blue denim all the time and didn't want to be too matchy-matchy with my handbag. 🙂 That, plus I want to be able to use this bag year-round, and where I live, I would not want to use the denim during the wet and cold winter and spring seasons.

Good luck in your decision making and search!
