Random question—if you’re planning on using a classic flap in lambskin for the week or so, how do you “store” the strap when you just put it down on the counter for the night?

I don’t mean long term storage, does anyone do anything to make sure the metal chain doesn’t dent the lambskin when you’re just setting it down for the night or am I being OCD/uptight about the lambskin?

I’ve always been curious as to why the names of pieces on the Chanel website are not the same as the names in physical stores. Even the color names are different, for example, the elusive 21p caramel color is officially “marron” on the tag, but is brown on the website.

I’m finally in a position to add a Chanel bag to my life, and I’m haunted by a bag I saw on an acquaintance last year.

It was a medium classic flap, in black (I think lambskin, but memory fails me now), with what appeared to be ruthenium or dark silver hw. The hw wasn’t dark enough to be so black, but def too dark to be silver. Does this exist? I feel like I’m hitting a brick wall trying to find one.

I have hardware like this on my black iridescent classic flap! I haven’t seen it on regular flaps though. And mine is caviar.

Do only classic flap bags come with the care booklet and mitt? I just received a caviar bag that had neither.

All bags should come with that but a lot of times they get removed. I always make sure to tell my SA I want the complete full set when I purchase something so they don’t take it out. I’ve had a few SAs ship them to me after the fact too.

I am so disappointed. There is a bucket that I desperately want from the Spring-Summer pre-collection that I saw on the website. I drove 3 to the Saks in Troy, MI on release day only to learn that they will not be getting the turquoise color. I then called Chanel and was connected to someone at the Madison Ave. boutique. I have contacted her a few times and I finally asked her if they would get it in the USA at all since it has been a few weeks. She said she is not sure-many orders from Europe have been delayed or canceled. I am so disappointed. Is anyone else running into similar issues trying to get merchandise?
