The below since the ombré effect alternates more regularly between the white and gold parts. It has less big patches of white.

Thanks Dear. Yeah i was into more of the gold too but the dilemma comes as the silver somehow shows deeper ombre effect. Now since you highlight it, the more silver, the paler it looks to me too . Wished i could see them in person but i need to get them from reseller

Spontaneously picked up this bag today! It’s my first tweed and it looked so much better on then sitting there alone on the shelf. Any ideas on what to wear with this and how to care for it? Also I just noticed online that the little metal tag/ charm on the chain appears light gold online but in person its a dark gunmetal gray…why is that?

Hi there!! Congrats on your first cf purchase! I think the proportions of the small cf are best, by the way!

As far as caviar goes, I love the caviar that appears supple, large grained and a bit shiny! Some seasons, the caviar (to me) can be dull, thin, matte and dry looking (it can pull next to the CC clasp). It's just a matter of preference!

Here's a good comparison:

Hi there. I am not sure if you’re aware but you’re comparing a seasonal caviar to a classic caviar. The bottom picture is classic beige claire in caviar. Only black and beige Clair colors which are the only permanent colors for classic flaps come with that particular grain of caviar and edge stitching.

In the old days, they used the classic caviar on all seasonal caviar releases including seasonal color classic flaps but that stopped long ago. so now, seasonal classic flaps have different caviar with finer grains and may be slightly different from season to season but they never get the classic caviar which is reserved for the two permanent colors. The small grain makes seasonal bags much more supple. It’s a personal preference but I too love the sturdy classic caviar more:sad:

Hi, yes they do. From what I have seen so far, at least the leather versions come in two sizes. There’s Mini and a larger one. Here’s a link to an unboxing video for black, large size posted today on YouTube: the video belongs to the creator/channel associated.

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong experts of TPF ~

I've been told it's 1 leather good and 1 small leather good per month (at Chanel Boutique) = 12 handbags and 12 small leather goods per year. Your February purchase should be fine if the January purchase closed in January and it's not a preorder arriving in February.

It's also only 6 seasonal and 6 classic flaps that total 12 handbags a year. I know this because I tried to purchase a seasonal bag late last year, and was denied because I had already reached 6 seasonal bags.
