Hi there!

I'm heading up to London Mid June for a business trip and have given myself a day off for some strolling around London and shopping. On top of my wish list is to buy a classic caviar WOC SHW or GHW. Do you know at which store I have the biggest chance of success? I prefer a boutique over a department store. I'm going to have my day off on a Tuesday. I already have a reissue 226 and am purchasing the WOC to pass on to my daughter when she is 18 (I gave birth this Jan). Perfect excuse to treat myself to a new bag :biggrin:
Hi!

I always shop at Harrods as I'm loyal to their rewards scheme. I have always seen WOCs in both hardwares in their first floor boutique. They always have classics here and great stock. They never display them but they always have them when I enquire. I recommend the first floor womenswear department over the ground floor accessories. They have an entire accessories room in the womenswear department and it's a lot more relaxed and quiet. They give you loads of time to try things on, places to sit, have a drink etc. Downstairs is always very busy, particularly with tourists, so I feel the experience isn't the same. If they don't happen to have what you want, you have the option of downstairs and the shoe department boutique also carries some bags. Failing all three boutiques in Harrods having what you want, then the Walton Street boutique isn't far to walk to. Happy shopping!

Thanks for your tips! Will try this out [emoji8]
 
Went to Bond Street Chanel today and they were not particularly busy and had quite a few colorful square and rectangular minis available. All in lamb of course and all the pretty spring colors of pink and turquoise and beige and blue. They had some lovely classic flaps in small and m/l size in these colors as well along with the orange/red that is out this season. Nothing really shouted "buy me and take me home" and their stock seemed good enough that I didn't feel a rush to make a decision.
 
Did they have beige in the classic flap small or M\L?

Thanks!

Hi everyone! my aunt will be in london this week and i am looking for a small le boy in black caviar leather (any color hardware) and also a small chanel classic flap in black caviar.

I understand both bags will be hard to find. do you think it's possible to find them this season?
i have been on the hunt for the small le boy in black for so long with no luck (i went to both london & paris in 2016 and just last year.) recently, i had a connecting flight in HK and found a small chanel le boy in black caviar chevron print with the shiny gold chain and i honestly regret not buying it since it was not in the silver chain i wanted...
 
I will be in London mid June. What are my chances of scoring an iridescent pink woc?
Also, how strict are they on the 1 bag and 2 slgs rule?
I plan on buying a reissue and two wocs, but would like to buy a cardholder and zip coin purse also.
I will be shopping alone so someone purchasing for me will not be an option.

TIA!

Hi, I tried on a small classic flap with silver hardware on yesterday at the Sloane St. Store in London.
