This right here. amen to you sister. Ladies there will always be another unicorn bag. There will always be another light pink. What we can all do now is support each other and avoid getting trapped in the hypes of these colors. I promise you, there will always be another bag. But how we react to these short supplies will dictate the resellers market and if Chanel wants to have another price increase. If we act cool, be patient, it will eventually work to our favor, I love you all. You are all amazing

So true! I buy what I can get but I refuse to pay exorbitant reseller or personal shopper prices. They are probably hyping up and buying up these bags ahead of regular buyers.

There's a lot that's frustrating with Chanel right now. I can't wrap my mind around why this season has so many different pinks, but only 50-100 of each (or even less!). It seems it'd be less frustrating if they narrowed what went into production and produced enough to be elusive but not impossible to get. Seems there were other ways to manage this, to reduce disappointment. I've been a big Chanel advocate, but this is getting pretty silly, and the pricing on RTW, in particular, knits has also skyrocketed. $4250 for a cashmere cardigan is pretty steep. Feel like these are NOT customer-centric decisions, it can't all be chalked up to COVID. Don't know if this is the new direction under VV, but hopefully not. There's a lot I like in 21A, so I hope things are straightened out by then.

I’m not particularly impressed with the way VV’s leadership is addressing some of these concerns. Chanel is more than about making a profit. After all their stakeholders are the top 40 richest people in the world. When I think Chanel, “empowered women” came used to mind. I don’t feel that vibe any more. I think preserving Chanel’s integrity and roots is what should be dictating the direction the brand is heading. Of course revenue should be prioritized but not at the expense of the brand’s principle and essence deeply engraved in its history.

My SA told me the Metier d’Art collection is always the most expensive

I am wanting a white CF with LGHW. I have only been able to track it down in size small. I have a medium cf but no experience with the small size. Would someone please weigh in on how the two sizes compare. Thanks so much!

My advice: Don't sweat it!

...2/3 months ago everyone was going nuts over "the" iridescent ivory...

...1 month ago everybody was losing their mind over "the" Rose Clair

...now we're all gaga over "the" light pink caviar

....the Chanel show will go on and we will live to fall for another color right around the corner...

mom really trying to understand who is creating the hype. I remember seeing the rose Claire color in like October/November and not being impressed Bc it was just too fleshy and beige for me. Most ppl felt the same in the thread. But then suddenly pandemonium happened

The small is cute but does not hold as much as a medium even though it’s 1 inch difference. I also think a small transitions to evening bag better. If price isn’t an issue, I would go with medium. If you want to save money and don’t carry much, go with small.
