Congrats!! It’s such a pretty lovely baby! Curious to know what changed your mind about the style as you mentioned you weren’t interested in mini handle before. I’m kind of in the same boat, still on the fence about the style and also have a 21B lilac lambskin flap which could be kind of similar to this. Thanks!
Thank you so much! Yes they made BAs with leather interior previously, I think from 2018 (forgot which season), so worth it back then though! But missed it hence am considering buying one this seasonHi! It's the small - Style Code A93749B05052 ($4600 USD). Interior is not leather. I don't know that they ever made the BAs with leather interior, have they?!![]()
Oh wow, that’s so interesting how different the color picks up! I’m really torn between the pink mini top handle or the medium classic flap in the light blue..i reserved the light pink in the small cf so I’m wondering if i truly need it in the mini as well?Thank you
Although the caviar on the coco handle is shiny, the colour looked more dull in comparison to the mini with handle. Myself, my boyfriend and my SA all thought the mini handle looked nicer than the coco handle in blue.
I was very tempted to buy the blue too, but I felt like it was too similar to my 21B grey mini so I passed, but stunning bag none the less!
I reserved the mini in green but the color seems a lot darker than your photo.Anyone got this greenish blue mini square flap? I would love to see some photos that show the true color![]()
Maybe just get only one pink from this season lol you know how we fall head over heel next or next seasons pinks yet to come.Oh wow, that’s so interesting how different the color picks up!

How is it compared to the 20a lilac? More pink? I’m waiting on mine. It was hard for my SA to capture the true color.Thank you
I was originally undecided between this and the blue coco handle as I missed out on 21K. My SA decided to also hold the mini with handle in blue (definitely the nicer blue of the two bags) for me too, but as soon as I tried it on I was in love
She is like a Sakura pink, so stunning and definitely different enough from 20A lilac.
Thanks! It’s wonderful to hear that quality won you over and you are totally right about how classic minis tend to have some issues and feel less structured. Now I need to do some real hard thinkingThank you
To be honest, I’m not really sure. I always preferred the look of the classic mini rectangle, but this pink only came in this style for this season.
After seeing this bag today both in blue and pink, they just felt really structured and well made. I find with the classic minis there’s always some issue like a crooked base, crooked flap etc but this seemed to be perfect. (Although the quilts are flatter than the classic mini) Now I think maybe I should of added this style sooner!
I think the lilac from 21B might be similar but this pink definitely pops in real life. I have the 20A lilac and I thought may be it would be too similar to have both in my collection but they are definitely different enough for me.
Haha! I know, i think i should just stick to the cf but the mini is so pretty in pink!Maybe just get only one pink from this season lol you know how we fall head over heel next or next seasons pinks yet to come.
Very elusive, yeah? I don’t think it has arrived in the boutiques. We haven’t seen any official photos yet but jeez, the wait is killing meI’m wondering did anyone buy or see a Chanel 19 so black at stores?
They are both beautiful bags! I have had the top handle mini for about a year and recently acquired the BA. I haven't had a chance to really use the BA but size wise, I think it will be more versatile. The mini is small and in my opinion, more feminine, whereas the BA is a little more casual. I don't think you can go wrong with either. Good luck!
Both are lovely bags. Both can be used for all occasions, but BA is more casual and top handle mini is more dressy. Business affinity is more carefree and versatile, while the top handle mini needs to be babied (light color lambskin) a lot more.
Between the two, I prefer the BA for its practicality and versatility, but it all comes down to what kind of bags you already have, how often you would use the bag, and what occasions you want it for. If you’re looking for something to wear every day, BA is the better choice as it’s more durable and casual but can go from day to night seamlessly. If you want a bag to wear occasionally to weddings and date nights, the top handle mini is a perfect bag! As it is lambskin, color transfer can occur very easily so it is recommended for wear with light colored clothes
good luck with your decision!
