I went in to look today bc I’m nosy and couldn’t resist checking out a brand new boutique. :lol:

When I entered the line, it was just past the sunglasses section. My total wait time was a little over an hour.

Many thanks to the person who posted there was lots of pink/denim. Almost everything displayed was pink/denim. I was pleasantly surprised to find that they had decent inventory with more expected to arrive in the next 2 weeks.

Also very cool that purchases also go under your Nordstrom history too. I was able to use double points today.

Btw, I just realized that my SA today didn’t activate the Chanel et moi warranty or have me enter any info in like in other boutiques. She did have my number/info though so I wonder if she’ll do it herself another day. Has anyone else purchased a bag here and didn’t get to enter their info in the system?
Hi! Yes, same thing happened to me regarding Chanel et moi warranty. I did ask my FA about it and it was because their system was a little glitchy. My FA said once it’s set up he’ll send the info. Your FA might do the same! :)

My BFF and I were able to go this morning. There was a LOT of stock, to our pleasant surprise. I wasn’t looking for a bag since I just bought a beautiful CCH last month, but I was hoping to find a coordinating SLG for that bag, and a twilly I had been wanting. I found both! And as I was getting ready to buy those, I found a mini rectangular I LOVED, so bought that too! :D
They said they got a big shipment this morning, so lots of goodies were in stock. 23S will be released Tuesday, so I was afraid there wouldn’t be much stock today, but that definitely was not the case.

My advice if you go on a weekend is to get there early. By 11 the line was pretty long to get in.

I might've been there at the same time as you. :biggrin:

Do you mean a classic mini rectangle? I was looking for one on opening day and they didn’t have any! Do you know what colors they had?
 
I was behind y'all. :smile: I decided not to make a purchase. I've been obsessing over it though. I might have to go back tomorrow.

Yes, I bought this green ombré patent classic mini rectangular. They said they had just received a large shipment of products that morning. I also saw a caramel coco handle and a mini rectangular with top handle in pink and green.

I was not shopping for a bag (story of my life with Chanel) since I had just purchased a coco handle a couple of weeks ago. But as I was getting ready to pay for my twilly and card holder, I asked about minis since I love minis, and when they took this beauty out of the cabinet I instantly said “I’ll take it!” without even trying it on, lol. It was instant love. Literally one second after laying eyes on it I knew I had to have it :D

Oh - and this is the Coco handle I had purchased a couple weeks ago, and I saw one on display upstairs in RTW. 01AB175D-AFB9-4FD9-BCAD-4985D84E4EA7.jpeg45761C27-BE0A-4C73-8D79-266D189D2C0C.jpeg5A2C5E33-B3DD-47FC-A2CB-26DC6D5DCB7E.jpeg

I didn’t take a picture in store, but just saw one like it listed on Fashionphile this morning - a top handle pink and green mini rectangular. FP is charging quite a premium for this bag! It’s probably gone now, but it is my understanding that this location is expecting a lot of demand, so they are ordering stock accordingly. If you are local enough to drop by, I would try to visit as often as I could to see what minis come in. They get snapped up fast! Ask what days they are expecting new deliveries, and try to visit on those days early in the day if possible.7E938F59-2B6D-4168-90EF-2C194CA303EA.jpeg
