I need helpI like 22p color better but wish it comes with silver hw. My hubby said 21k at a heartbeat...
I'm going for whichever one is easier to style with. Can I get some advice from you and other folks pls?
I got the 22p mini top handle in blue and love it more than 21k!
IMO 21k is a true pastel so the undertones are very bright, which for me makes the 22p dusty/grey undertones more neutral and easier to style as it will blend with the outfit instead of be a bright pop of color. I've tried this bag with dark denim, light denim and bright yellow, emerald green, purple, and burgundy sweaters and they all look good with it! The only colors so far it seems to clash with is neon and sage green.
In terms of hardware, the LGHW is truly beautiful with the dusty baby blue and even looks silver in some lighting if that's what you prefer
My photos in different lighting here: white light -> boutique light -> yellow/dim light
I haven’t seen 22p in person yet. I was on reserve for 21k so I got to see it but declined it because I ended up getting the caramel 19. I liked 21k but judging from the pictures I think I’d choose 22p since it seems to be slightly darker. I think both would be easy to style! I think lghw is a good medium in between s or g hw.I need help

I’m actually thinking of going into the store today to see what I can see. Still undecided… I love seeing all of the new editions!!
I personally like the 22P blue better than the 21K, I saw it in person at the boutique last week and it looks beautiful, the darker tone definitely makes it easier to style and match with other outfits in my opinion and although they are both prone to color transfer, the darker blue will hide it better imho if this is something you want to consider. Good luck and hope it helps. I am so tempted to get a flap card holder in this color
I personally like 21k better. 22p in person looks a little dusty(like dirty blue almost). But that’s me and I like colors with minimal to zero undertone. I think you can match them both with neutral clothing easily
Thank you all so muchI got the 22p mini top handle in blue and love it more than 21k!

Glad to hear that the color in person is still pretty to some, and hopefully me as well. Also, I didn't think about color transfer, so thanks @xsweetdreamx for pointing it out! @zjack Tell me about it lol, I question myself almost EVERY collection 
@pooky747 your mini top handle is so pretty, and I agree lghw actually doesn't clash with this color. I mean I still prefer silver hw but this looks nice too 
I will continue to wait for my light blue reserve patiently. I see it in the stock threads but where is mine??? 
Arrrrrrrrrrrrr

Haha I must be replying while you were typing. Yes lghw definitely is not that bad, I'm glad it's not ghw. And yes I prefer 22p over 21k bc it's more blue, although it's darker. But I actually don't mind that. Let us know if you see any new eye candies today!!
I will! I’m trying to decide if I want to drive in the galleria traffic and whether they will have anything left. If my SA contacts me and says she has my earrings then I will go. At least that way it will feel productive. My sa only said the have the red 19 in store
Since I kept asking here if anybody got it yet, it is only fair to share my photos. It is a beauty!!!
Soooo pretty! Which pic is more accurate?
Thanks for sharing!
You know what, this bag will now fulfill 2 of my wish-colors at once LOL. First my long gone 21a grey dream and secondly light blue cf
Thank you for sharing it's so beautiful!!
Tough to tell, really depends on how the light hits.
I'd say the first one is a bit more accurate, but we are having a dull weather today, so maybe on a brighter day it would look more like in the second photo.
Hi!! So I just got my red classic flap… did anyone notice the bag feels kind of plasticy and also has a weird smell? I am so disappointed! I compared to my other bags and the quality is just so off. I’m scared it’s a fake bag!!! Which would be nuts because I bought from a boutique!!
Would love to hear some feedback and if the bag feels less plasticy over time or smell is normal

Heyyy that's my photo! Haha.
Oh no I'm so sorry... didn't mean to steal it if I made you feel that way
I was hoping that *Noy* watermark would be enough. I couldn't remember where I took it from...Would you agree your picture is pretty true to color though?

I went into the store over the weekend and noticed too that all the seasonal classic flaps felt so different comparing to the classic black and beige Claire. More plasticy, like you have mentioned here, and soft. I don't own any seasonal just the classic colors and looking to get one. Maybe someone can shade some light.
