Is it just me or do these season’s iridescents not really look iridescent? Seems like they’re just slapping that label on everything to create buzz!

Yeah at least the beige is not really ‘iridescent’ I guess. I saw it again today because my SA had both the next mini and the medium flap available for me. I would probably describe it as pearly beige as opposed to iridescent beige.


Mod shots of the medium. Ironically it looks ivory here but in person - strong blush tones.

Really exquisite, overall.

My iridescent white mini and the iridescent light pink medium double flap arrived. I used my mother in law’s profile to purchase the iridescent light pink medium to avoid the one person one classic bag one month policy. Still waiting for the Chanel 19 bag and in search for a light pink caviar medium double.
I really love the iridescent white mini. The calfskin feels different than lambskin. I think it is going to be more durable (the lambskin mini bags have not been working for me in the past because they are very delicate in my mind)
The iridescent light pink medium double is very sturdy and beautiful. Definitely has a lilac undertone. In some light, it looks like pale lilac.
Both bags have beautiful iridescent finish. Not too much compared to some other iridescent Chanel had in the past. Pls see the pics when I compare to my other bags (21S iridescent white mini vs. 20K iridescent white coco handle; 21S iridescent light pink vs. 21S purple, 19S pink, 21P pink and 21C pale pink)

Congrats they’re both beautiful! The iridescent this season feels very plush & luxurious.
 
:mad:Venting post: went to my local stand alone boutique today to see what had launched...literally nothing! All old stock. I have been trying to reserve a 21s item for months & my SA is fully aware of my obsession with the bag. Turns out they are all reserved and they didn’t let me know til I went to the boutique today. I’m so disappointed & upset that my SA didn’t even try to get me on the list (I’m a regular customer & notified them very early that I wanted the item ). When I asked why they did not put me on the list when they knew I wanted it they said that too many clients want a few select hot bags & it’s too hard for SAs to keep track. I’m out of luck again. No apology nothing. I’m jaded and can’t do anything about it now.
How do you guys reserve your items so early when the boutique only gets 2 of them and they won’t even tell you if you are on the list? :mad:

I’ve never reserved the bag. I usually just ask her if she has this specific bag. I think it’s about the timing. I asked her yesterday if she received any ,she told me there were only one at the moment and someone already wanted it. I told her that’s ok and the next day she told me she has one for me too.
