Has anyone seen the mini rectangle from 24C in store? This is my second one, and it has wrinkles like my first one did, which I ended up returning for another reason. Is this wrinkling normal for this seasons batch of minis? Please let me know your opinion on if you would keep or return it. It was a pain to find another one.

I got the same one, and mine has wrinkles too. I'm also torn as it's a beautiful color and my first mini, but I can't unsee the wrinkles?
I completely understand! My husband actually almost completely fixed the wrinkles he used a heat gun and he massaged slightly. It’s perfect now let me insert a photo of it. And I’ll insert a photo of what he used. He used it for 30 seconds on medium setting for about 4 in away.

Finally it's here 24c classic mini rectangular flap in black with silver hardware 
You let your husband aim a heat gun at your brand new Chanel?!
LOL Oh my goodness, you are B-R-A-V-E!!!!Haha I didn’t know he was going to do it, but he said he if he damaged it then it would be on him. I’m happy he was willing to take the risk, as the bag is perfect now! Moving forward I’m totally okay with wrinkles as long I’m the one who makes them.You let your husband aim a heat gun at your brand new Chanel?!
I just bought this beauty too! I first saw her on Sunday of last week when I went in to ask about those beautiful ombré Deauvilles (was hoping for that dark purple one, it seems like maybe the US hasn't gotten them?) and the SA showed me this! I went to dinner to decide between this, the Louis Vuitton Pouchette Métis East West in the Bubble Tea colorway, and the brand new Lady Dior with the red butterflies. But I forgot the mall closed early on Sunday, so all of the boutiques were closed by the time I was done (and I still hadn't made up my mind yet...) So I went back on Saturday and got this. I justified it to myself that I just got the Nano Noé in the Bubble Tea colorway and Dior bags lose their value so if I'm lucky I may be able to snag that one on Fashionphile soon without spending that amount (whereas if/when this one makes it there, she'll go for 7000+...).This mini finally arrived in US! The enameled CC and sequin is perfect with the tweed. Photos cannot do justice with how it sparkles. I went with my friend to pick her up and as soon as she saw the bag she decided to get one as well

She's so gorgeous. I can't stop staring at her. I especially love the purple enamel (?) hardware, I don't think Chanel's ever done that. I have a beautiful pair of sparkly purple Sophia Webster high heels, and I can't stop thinking about outfit combos for these two! Nervous about the tweed, I've never owned a tweed bag before, but she's a special occasion girl so I will be careful.

This is so beautiful! I love it. If I didn’t want so many things at once I would run out and buy it too.
Wow I had no idea this wasn’t available here in the US. I bought it in Paris in early December. An impulse purchase, that’s how stunning the colors are. I’ve yet to wear it though, I’m very interested to see & hear how others will style it.
She’s surely special! I wouldn’t worry too much about tweed bag, I think it’s a little more carefree than lambskin since you don’t have to worry about dent and scratch. If anything the sequin could do some damage to delicate clothing so i have to be mindful when I am wearing longer tweed jacket. She goes really well with black and red tone outfit. Enjoy your beauty!
