I don’t know where else to share this so here I am. Sharing what I did to the camelia flowers attached to our packaging. I turned them into resin coasters!

Hi all! I have decided to finally get a mini square classic flap, and i think I want it in a fun color like a pink, so I found that 21K is going to have a few light iridescent shades, including a light iridescent pink! I’m just nervous about the iridescent pieces being extra fragile, does anyone have a light iridescent pink Chanel piece in lambskin that can share their experience?
 
Hi everyone, wanted to get your opinion on something.
Is the vintage classic lambskin small flap in burgundy THAT rare? I’ve only ever come across 1-2 listings in the past 2-3 years and failed to get it each time thinking that I’ll see it again. Even on Google search, I can hardly come across anyone who has listed the bag or owned it.
 
Hey! May I have your opinion on this Chanel wrist coin purse. It came out in 2020. I liked it then but felt maybe it was too impractical especially as I hadn’t seen it irl.

I saw it in the store in person recently and still really like it.
I could just use it and keep my phone in my pocket or use it as an additional accessory along with my purse (as seen in the picture). And the band can be used as a bracelet.

To complicate matters,I had been looking for these sunglasses for ages and the SA may be able to get them in. (I do have Chanel aviators so this would be a second pair of sunglasses).

So if you could choose one which one or maybe neither…

Thank you!

Hi Chanel lovers, I’m new to Chanel and got the bug. I wanted to ask if color comes off the chains and hardware from SO black bags over time. What is that hardware? Will it become silver or gold if the black scratches off? And if I wanted to get that repaired does Chanel handle that? Thank you so much.

Hi, I don’t have any So Black because of this issue, but yes, it is a known potential problem. However, they are gorgeous. Try this So Black clubhouse thread for a start. I hope it helps.

I have a silly question to ask. :sad: I recently moved to the US a while ago. My state does not have a Chanel boutique so I have to travel different state to shop at Chanel.
I made my profile last month and made one big purchase in person . I made another purchase (FW clothing) via text last week.
I asked my SA if I could be on the waitlist or make a reserve on certain bags and clothing for upcoming F/W and Cruise, my SA said theres no such thing called a waitlist... :S
My SA is very nice but I felt a bit odd.
Is this because I am not a regular yet? Or is there any certain amount I have to spend at the boutique in order to reserve certain items?

Thanks!
 
Hey all, I'm relatively new to Chanel and have been wanting a classic flap (small) in caviar in red (SHW/GHW) for a while now. But it seems that in the past year Chanel has only released red bags in lambskin. :sad: Does anyone know what are the chances they'll release between now and 2022? Is it rare to have it in caviar?

Welcome to the US! I hope your move was a good and easy one. So for waitlists and reservations you’ll soon learn it really is weird and varies by store. I think especially because of the heightened reseller market during the pandemic they’ve changed their tune a bit. So some stores do them, others don’t, some only two weeks before release, and others do lottery. If you don’t get a good vibe from your SA I would try to build a relationship elsewhere or at a department store Chanel (in my experience they’re easier to work with and more flexible but that’s just me). Hoping you get the items you’re wishing for! I think because some collections are far away too, only VVIP get to reserve or rather dictate buying for boutiques.

Hello- looking for a brooch with some pearls to match some other items. Haven't seen anything available from the current collection - what are the best sites/sellers for previous collection items like brooches. Trying to avoid buying a fake.

thanks!
 
Hi, I wanted to know, how's everyone's experience with Chanel heels/shoes in general. Are they comfortable? Usually my shoes are Louboutin, Jimmy Choo, or Dior. I haven't got a chance to try them in store yet and wanted to hear your experiences. Thank you
