Hi all! I am so curious to know if anyone can help me with this! I recieved this 22A small classic flap in lambskin, light pink (ni681) yesterday from the boutique. I'm confused however because I legitimately cannot find this bag anywhere online - not on resale websites, not on youtube videos of the 22a collection, literally nowhere. I love every single thing about the bag except for the fact that the cc lock light gold hardware does not match the chain at all! Has anyone seen this bag anywhere, and does anyone have any insight about the inconsistency in hardware? I don't even have anything to compare it to. Would you return it over this color variance? So confusing!

there is another thread on this. Someone posted a difference on chain and turnlock for their 21A dark beige cf. See post below. However, I think its more noticeable on the pink than the beige.

 
Yes, I received my green mini. The leather is very matte almost dry feeling to the touch. Haven’t experienced leather like this before. Not too sure how I feel about it. The color is gorgeous though! I don’t have wrinkling on mine, only very minimal by some stitched areas. I did see a previous posters mini with the wrinkling, makes me concerned mine May end up like that too due the nature of the leather? Or will flaking/peeling/cracking happen over time from dry matte leather rubbing from wear? Does anyone have any extra thoughts on this?

Thanks for sharing! Part of me is hoping this actually helps the bag being less delicate than the buttery lambskin since it has an extra coating, it almost feels like calf?

The creases are also less visible on the flap (back of the flap where it starts folding when opened) compared to regular lambskin which is a plus :)

my pink mini is definitely growing on me ❤️❤️ The green is gorgeous too!
 
I picked my iridescent green mini 2 days ago. It's gorgeous and the leather seems really durable, more like a calf

Purchased the iridescent green medium classic flap but was a bit disappointed with it. The flap was slightly crooked and there were a few indentations under the flap... I exchanged it for this mini on Sunday. So glad I got it as I've been on the hunt for a mini!
I got the iridescent green mini today! Well, my boyfriend bought it and he says I can touch it -.-

Also wanted to buy the navy jumbo from 22B for my mother but Chanel's new policy only allows for one bag per month. Will be heading back to the store in August to purchase it.
