Hello everyone! Does anyone know if any of the boutiques in Singapore will be getting receiving this bag in burgundy? I believe its part of the 21B f/w Act 1 collection. I fell in love the second I laid eyes on it. Hopefully I won't have to resort to getting it from a reseller. Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Hi, yes they do allow you to splitbest to drop by and indicate your interest in which bag you hope to get and hopefully you get a nice SA who will contact you once it’s in stock! The markdown has started and I know some 21A bags restocked so you might want to drop by soon. Just went today and I saw quite a bit of classic black gold flaps when they opened the storage area for the bags in the private area in NAC outlet
Hello! Thank you for clarifying for me
have a great day ahead. Sadly, I will probably visit at nov/December period because her birthday is early next year and it’s gonna be hard for me to hide the bag in my house .Once again, thank you!
Oh no! I can see why you could have missed the crack before. One has to scrutinise to find it! But it really shouldn't happen for such a new (and expensive) bag. Like you said, if it's been a few years, I think that can be accepted. I have a Givenchy pouch that I used once and kept for a few years. The edge cracked despite unuse. I think it just gets... dry??? You don't want to let Chanel fix it? I think I read somewhere on TPF that TPFers use a product like Edge Kote to fix edges. So I think it can be fixed?
Aha! I can see now what you mean by smaller caviar grain! It made me compare my caviars too (I only have 2 haha). My WOC has similar caviar to yours! Smaller and finer grain. My boy's caviar is fatter and bigger. I have no preference after inspecting both. Love them both!
Do you have a preference?Nice of you to buy her a Chanel bag as a present! She's going to be so thrilled!
Thanks for sharing! I'm going to order the Carbon Pro too! So your beige didn't change colour at all? Asking because mine is also a beige.
Beautiful choice! I hope you manage to get it from the boutique too! I might go tmrw. Will find out and update here!
hey babe! Yes! No Color change at all! You wouldn’t notice any difference, but I watched some YouTube videos prior, maybe you can check them out. Most importantly is to test the spray to make sure that it sprays evenly and follow the instructions to spray evenly 30cm away! If you see any dark spot(s), it will disappear once dry!
AWESOME POSSUM! Omg... can't wait to protect my bag... will try it out! Was actually thinking of getting a twilly to protect the handle but I much prefer leaving the handle twilly-free! Thank you @luxuriousinpink and @MissyHimeko !
Thank you @MissyHimeko. Appreciate the advise.Hi! I spray them fresh out of boutique (shoes, wallets, bags, etc) and top up every now and then. If i notice there are any dirt or the leather looking abit dry or "tired" then I will use a little bit of the leather gel to moisturize it and then after a day or so (give it time to completely absorb) I will then spray it with the waterproof spray
Hi, as informed by my SA, the sale will be open to public on the 19th
however most things were out by the time I was free to head down (on Thursday) so I hope they do bring out more stuff for when it opens to public! I was told that on 19th, appointments with SA to view are not allowed (at least for the NAC outlet) like in the past so head down early to get a digital queue!I’m glad it worked as well for you as it did for me! It can be very daunting to try the spray for the first time so thought I would share my experience
Hello! Thank you for clarifying for me
Once again, thank you!
No problem, your wife to be is going to be smiling from ear to ear!
Glad to share! Love seeing the community be helpful to each other since it seems it’s extremely hard to get a nice SA these days. While I am extremely thankful for my SA in NAC who gotten me so many bags, I have never quite gotten the same warm experience in MBS when I just step in to browse and also in hopes of getting another SA at a different outlet for better chances of getting bags (I keep trying to meet a nice SA in MBS but no luck). I guess I will just continue to support my one and only SA!
Glad to help

lol ( worried about Covid 
) want to wait until I’m done with the bag , let me wear it for a while more, then I will send in for repair LOL. I’m pretty sure once I send it in. It will take 4-12weeks?The pipping is just bee wax, just need to seal it again perhaps? My old LV wallet had the same issue as your givenchy….
Ohhhh! You need to buff it with natural hair brushes! Buffing will not damage the leather. It only removes the residue on the leather, and bring back the shine. I had the same issue as you at first, leather cream mattifying the bags (my CF) and I was horribfied!!!! Until my cobbler told me to buff it outI really hope that doesn't happen to your bag, I'll be so sad if it happened to any of mine. Oh I see.. now I'm going to notice how the handles are formed at the bags and notice for this kind of wear
And yes, probably they just don't want to be liable. I wouldn't want to risk it too anyway upon hearing what they say, and also maybe lay off the leather conditioner etc in the meantime. I'm a bit worried that it might take the shine off the leather, or maybe change the leather texture (I.e. smooth to matte?).
Oops! But It's beautiful! I thought it is iridescent cause of the shine of the leather
