Wow, just saw the caramel lambskin cf on those PS's IG. So tempted! But am more keen for a caviar one. How I wish May comes soon! Hahaha.
I was also going to wait for 21A, but the way we're still seeing 20K shipments come still right now, and I'm still waiting for my 21C preorders to come in, I'm expecting 21A mid- to end- summer with maybe even another price increase. And, the shade of caramel I see for 21P is unexpectedly beautiful, and the quality is actually..good when I saw and felt the leathers in person. I'm not sure if the same shade will be released for 21A as the shades seem to change slightly season to season especially with the types of leather that may be used.

totally agree, its expected (the worse) to have another increase on top of the January one by the time 21A releases in June. I think 21P is beautiful if you don't mind the caramel shade in lambskin. Again I heard the 21P is very limited. So finger cross. Are you planning to get it from 21P instead?

Yup, very true. With the price increase, its very crazy (every year!). I saw the photos, yes the colour for 21P is very niceee and just saw a PS posted a mini square, so tempted! How about you, are you getting? Do let us know (show photos too!) if you get it. :)

Yes, I'm planning to get the caramel from 21P instead. After weighing the risks and rewards, I think it's better I purchase from 21P. The leather quality for the caramel lambskin is good this season. I had to return my pearl crush mini because of the delicate leather (really felt like smush) and deflated quilts :sleepy: That being said, I will share photos once I get it :smile:

I opted for the 21P caramel because it's just so gorgeous and I've bee lusting after this color on the vintage market for quite some time. I love it in lambskin! The picture of the 21A caviar didn't do it for me and it looked a bit more plastic-y. I should get mine tomorrow!

Excellent choice :tup: I also thought the 21A caviar looked a bit plastic-y to me, but didn't want to say anything :sleepy: The lambskin looks gorgeous and looks like it will age well over time. I can't wait! Congratulations on your purchase, and please do share when you get it!

Do you mind sharing the 21A caviar image if you have? I only saw the thumbnail size posted here. Hahaha

The caramel from 21P is so tempting! I’ve been told that there’s a long wait list at my boutique to get it. The bag doesn’t even hit the floor - it’s shipped from moment of arrival haah! I’m hoping the 21A caviar caramel is just as beautiful as this!
