I thought you girls would get a kick out of this.
How were you able to get that burgundy bag??!! I was told that it was not available in the US. It is gorgeousBought the knit set and mini flap bag! I haven't bought bags from chanel for at least 5 years lol. I gained a lot of weight during quarantine but too tired to switch for bigger size...Now i'm just motivated to lose weight

I tried it on in the sale, it was bulky / heavy as it’s a terry like material. I am 38 and was swimming in the 38. More of a coat/jacket than blazer. Someone else asked during sale a few weeks ago and other ladies responded it was true to size for them.
It’s a nice piece but wasn’t for me.
I did like the nip at the waist which made a lovely silhouette.
I tried the Rooftop coat and Metier navy sweater coat. Rooftop coat has many lovely interesting details, very thin and light. The sweater coat is cozy. Both work best on a tall frame.
I had the same thought but I missed out on Paris Rome... I was not buying Chanel RTW then
While I do see the Paris Rome jacket pop up from time to time on reseller websites (and I personally am happy to pick up pre-loved items in good condition), this is one jacket that has been faked quite a bit. I've seen some pretty unfortunate fakes on eBay. The shorter length will probably suit me better than the Paris Rome as well, as I am 5'3" and fairly high waisted. It sounds like my SA had the foresight to actually order one for me (yay!) and is expecting it to come in soon so I will try and post pics.
I bought this jacket this summer on sale at 40% off. I bought my regular size since I have wide chest/shoulders. On sale it was final sale so I did not take a chance sizing it down. Sleeves for me need to be cut. It’s not slim fit jacket do a bit loose works.
I like the details on this jacket when I saw it first time. That is why it did not bother me that it’s a bit heavy. Depends on how you intent to wear it. It’s beautiful jacket. It can be worn as blazer for fall or as jacket with tank top. Since it was on sale recently, if I was in your place, I would track it on sale and would not pay full price. By the way, this jacket does not have chain detail inside, on the trim. My SA said it’s because is heavy and some Chanel jackets do not have the chain. Hope it helps.
Those pieces look great on you KA. I still love the navy and gold one. Won’t be seeing it anytime soon alas 
Both look great on you. The sweater coat seems very useful. The jacket may be a good addition for our local weather, not too cold but often chilly and wet. How do you like where the pockets hit?
bought this version of the metiers knit...
Took my tank in for alterations and the alterations guy talked me into trying the coral top
My husband loves it too. Ai yi yi. Now I can’t decide and the small sweatshirt is on the way yikes !!!
just noticed the stitching on the CC and also little pearls at the end !

If you have to choose 2, I vote for these! You look great, they are useful and will get great cost per wear yet look put together, and are both totally your style. Of course you have to try the sweatshirt to make sure you can’t live without it, but I think you have a couple of pieces that can fit the same wardrobe role as the sweatshirt. However, some pieces we can never have too many of; for me it is knitwear, you may need a wider variety of sweatshirts.
