All the caramel flaps are killing me, so pretty! I wasn’t able to get a guaranteed spot and so sad. Number 7 for 5 coming in. Hoping maybe I get lucky and some pass, as I noticed some were also on list for a mini. Fingers crossed they release this color or similar again soon. Congrats to everyone that scored one!
Are there still lists/reservations for minis? I’m new to chanel and recently met with an SA who informed me that mini bags are now first come first served? Anyone know if this is true? I keep seeing a lot of conflicting information…
 
Wowww! Congrats on your 22s goodies. Have you heard regarding the Caramel Mini Bag in Australia? Has it arrived yet? My SA said it hasn’t so just checking if your SA said the same thing? I follow you on instagram and Youtube so I am excited for your upcoming posts!


22S just launched in Australia this week and I got to go try on and take home some of my favourite pieces. Some photos attached to help show the new products including the runway 2-piece swim suit set which is very flattering on, the new 22 tote bag which my SA told me is a new classic like the 19 became a new classic a few years ago, and the popular logo shoes. Also have some other bags still on their way to me. If you want more photos, reviews, etc. my Instagram is ‘VivvyInVogue’ and I will be posting many more photos, videos, try-ons, mod shots, etc.
 
i still don’t quite appreciate the new 22 bag. I can understand some like the non structured bags and relaxed style\ but the 22, just dont speak to me unfortunately. Can’t see it as a “classic” of Chanel too. Just my personal opinion. But Chanel is chanel and im sure they made it as a classic for a reason, just not for me

I was wondering this too. More people were able to get the bags they wanted on the forum this year compared to last year. There are a few possibilities for this
  1. The price increases created less people willing to purchase
  2. Production went up so more bags are available in general
  3. Chanel’s attempts to curb resellers is working somewhat so there are less of them bag hoarding

what do you guys think?
Personally I feel they may have potentially produced more this season however they haven’t deterred the resellers in any way - the number of caramel minis in particular some resellers are posting goes to show they are still able to hoard them like before and take the chance of scoring one away from a genuine cc lover.

I also wonder if it could be the fact that those who missed out last year have been more proactive this year by following up with sa’s as soon as they heard about the new caramel and getting on lists earlier? I know for myself and a few others I’ve spoken to that this is the case and managed to get on top of the lists as soon as they opened, but I understand all stores in different countries work differently/ competition is much higher in certain countries thus not everyone has had the same experience.

Nonetheless I’m happy for those who have managed to score direct from boutique and rooting for those that are still waiting!

My caramel mini rectangle came in today!! My lovely SA got one for me :loveeyes: this is from standalone boutique. Oh boy, I've been searching this for a long time after 21p came by. Still couldn't believe I got it. I'm not a VIP or super spender. I only bought 1 WOC, 1 SLG and 1 earrings from her. This will be my first mini rectangle flap :heart: I first asked her about 22C items last year and asked about the waitlist for the mini, and she mentioned the brown will come back for Spring Act 2. then I got reserved since October of last year. I guess that's how long you can be put on a waitlist for a highly coveted item? Also she mentioned building a relationship and working with "one" SA makes it alot easier to get an item.

Can't wait for this baby to arrive to me!

Thanks for letting me share :heart:
