Hello ! I was hoping to hear what you all think of this bag? I fell in love at the store but now I am not too sure why I got a tweed instead of the leather for my first purchase.

19 Medium - Navy/Ecru/Purple/Yellow - Tweed- Mix HW - $5,200

It is a beautiful bag!!! It also depends if this bag and the kind of material fit in your lifestyle. It's still a nice starter bag if you really like it and you can try a leather bag on your next Chanel bag purchase. Caviar is my favorite. I'm not sure how tweed bags hold their value. My first Chanel bag is a black jumbo CF in caviar with GHW two years ago for only $6,200. It took me a while to decide getting a tweed bag after purchasing 7 more Chanel bags in different sizes, colors, and leather materials. For this Spring 21 collection, I was drawn to the blue tweed mini rectangular, a size I don't have. I am on the reserve list and this will be my first tweed bag. I also just bought the raffia flap bag in red and beige to add variety in my collection. I know I won't add a solid red bag in my collection. Let me know what you decide. Welcome to this crazy but exciting world of Chanel!!!

Does anyone have the classic belt bag (with card holder attached) from 21p in black caviar? I’m in the US and have been trying to track down this item....my SA said the small leather goods (especially belt bags and vanity clutches) have been flying off the shelves and they don’t get many...is that really true? I’m guessing it’s because they’re at a lower price point...
 
Is the gold mini square in Chanel boutiques? I can’t find it on the Chanel site but saw them on IG.
Yes they are! They were in Saks last week.

You are so sweet!! Thank you so much for your thoughtful reply. I think i was unsure because it didn’t match well with print outfits- but the bag stands out on its own and refuses to be neutral hahaha. I think it’s just getting used to it. And you are right! My next purchase can be the leather one.
Also the blue one you reserved is so beautiful! So happy you are on the list- saw many youtubers point it out during their season review, def a tweed standout this season.
the red straw bag is so beautiful and unique, and Perfect for spring and summer days <3

I love the caramel color so much for the Chanel 19. I'm on the reserve list for the mini rectangle... But not sure if I also wanna get the Chanel 19! Not sure that's even possible since I'm sure all the reserve spots are probably filled up.
 
I’ll do a pink comparison among the 3 bags next week
Here is the comparison between 21C light pink WOC vs. 21P pink m/l classic flap. I’m glad I got both of them. What I really wanted initially was a 21C light pink classic flap. But I wasn’t able to get one from my SA and I don’t feel like paying a couple thousand more to get one. I’m very happy with my purchases. I also include a picture of the 19S iridescent pink for your reference. Personally the 19S iridescent pink is still my favorite since it is so easy to wear and look good with almost all outfits. The 21P pink is very pretty and is definitely a dream color for me since teenage years, and it is not a hot pink or super strong Barbie pink, but a soft rose pink. The 21C light pink is so popular but it is very light. Under some light, it is similar to a light beige. It goes well with all outfits and WOC has a long chain so I can wear cross body to go grocery shopping or run errands. Very convenient. Let me know which pink you love the most. 0678C0E4-A758-4BD2-8FB7-60E59BF0211E.jpeg4CC5CE8F-242C-4B04-A5D2-0473BE94948F.jpegF985C339-BDD1-4E9C-88A6-07DB58D01089.jpegA7A69E89-AEDD-4E8A-8EB9-9DA28419E28A.jpeg

Thanks for sharing. I didn’t know 21P has this pink in medium flap. All look pretty!
 
Thank you! The 21P pink does look different in different lighting... I saw so many pics on Instagram looks like different bags but actually is the same one. I took a couple more under different lighting. Hopefully it helps.View attachment 4961987View attachment 4961988View attachment 4961989
Thank you so much for the great comparison!
Do you know from your SA if Chanel is receiving the small or medium classic flap in the pale pink? I am wondering why our boutique didn’t receive it till now

It seems very few stores are getting the pale pink small and medium classic flaps... Neither my NM SA nor saks SA are getting it unfortunately.
