If you like this blue, get it in the cf! It’s hard for chanel to come out with people’s ideal shades so if you love i would get it in a flap

I think this light blue is one of the best that I’ve seen. I vote you get the light blue now rather than wait because a better one may never come! The hobo with dark gold hardware looked so nice and pretty, but value wise I think maybe you should go for a classic especially if you only have neutral classics.
I would choose the ecru reissue, but I'm biased bc I bought it, LoL. Also bc I have never really been a fan of the pearl crush bags. But being as how you've said the ecru works better with your outfits, that alone would make me go with the ecru. For me personally, I really love the reissue for it's history, and because it's so under the radar, but also because it is pretty hard wearing, can fit a good amount for a mini, and can double strap for a different look. But that's just me, LoLNot that I can get the ecru mini reissue (top photo from SA) right away since I live far away from the boutiques, but would you rather go with the reissue or keep the pearl crush mini flap in light beige (from 22C; bottom two photos)?

Reasons for me to favor the mini reissue at this point:
(First of all… It’s a reissue!)
- more durable and better option for traveling
- low key (sort of)
- better tone to go with my earthy-feeling olive green or khaki outfits (this 22C pc has a pinkish tone that looks a bit off with the yellowish tone outfits)
(Strap length is not a problem for me.)
Which one would you prefer if you can only choose one?
I love the blue color, especially as it is caviar leather. I tried the small hobo in the boutique and was put off by two features: the small size and the snap closure. I need something larger and prefer a flap rather than an open bag where things could fall out more easily. I’ve already asked my SA to put aside the medium CF when it comes in.
It comes in the bucket bag too! I love this colour and plan to get it in the bucket bag style even though I already have it in light yellow. It’s such an easy to use bag! Attaching a pic of it, but you should check with your SA if your store is bringing it in.
Definitely the reissue, for all the reasons you stated plus it can be worn crossbody or doubled up on the shoulder. I love the mini reissue, it’s my favourite style.Not that I can get the ecru mini reissue (top photo from SA) right away since I live far away from the boutiques, but would you rather go with the reissue or keep the pearl crush mini flap in light beige (from 22C; bottom two photos)?

Ugh yeah I did like the brushed gold hardware with it on the hobo and was thinking I already have classic flaps…ugh the dilemma!! Also the CF prices are so crazy now after the continuous price increases…but it is so tempting..I wish it came in a mini (although it’d probably be impossible to get my hands on even if it did come in it). Thanks everyone for their opinion!
OOOOHHHH I like this little bucket bag more than the hobo. Need to see if I can get this. Thanks for the pic! @flyingfree27
I agree that the blue bucket bag is better than the hobo. It’s a pity there’s no mini or mini with handle in this color.
I saw the little backpack with two small pockets, but didn't take a pic of it. It's really small but I'm roomier than it looks. I passed on this and got a large Duma that's coming on Monday. It's rare they make a large backpack.
Hi! My SA has the lilac small backpack if you’re interested. I passed on this one this morning so she might still have it available. It’s $5000
For anyone that likes this pink, I personally think it is nice. But does anyone think the pink reminds them of pepto-bismol? Does anyone have pics of the pepto-bismol bottle? Lol.
