Beautiful bags but I am a little torn now. I was attracted to the silver mini with top handle during the runway so I asked my SA to put me on reserve list last November. Received a text from my SA last Friday that their store received 3 silver mini with top handle with 25 people on the list. I am #1 on the list while #2 and #3 already confirmed buying the bags. Interestingly, they can only start doing transactions for the SS21 collection on Tuesday 3/2. Got few days to decide. Any thoughts on this silver mini with top handle? Thanks.
I like the style and personally I think the silver looks pretty cool. What factors made you hesitate?

I am intrigued by it. I have another top handle bag (Chloe Faye Day) that I really like, although all of the reports of a thinner strap make me hesitate. I personally would want to see it in person at the boutique - do you have that option?

Also - only three bags and a waitlist of 25? My heart sank when I saw that.
 
Anyone know if this colour comes in a rect mini?? I missed out on the caramel 21p and hoping this might be a good substitute. Thanks!

I almost missed out on 21p caramel also because my SA was calling it dark beige and the internet was calling it caramel and the Chanel website was calling it brown, and I was worried she and I were describing 2 different colors. Oh how I wish there was some standardization to keep things from getting confusing like this! Had a similar situation with my 21S reserve also but it was about size instead of color this time.
