Agreed, the struggle is real about pink bags, I can't resist! At the time, I was overwhelmed with all the pink bags on display as the 21C also had another pink color other than the rose clair. When I arrived at the store, I saw the 2 pinks, one from 21C (bubblegum pink) and the other being the 21P rose pink.

Hahaha it really is!
The problem is that they are different enough to collect them all and also the decrease in production means the fomo is real too!
I do remember a time when they didn’t really make any light pinks for a very very long time. The pinks they did bring out were not that great (apart from 19C and 20S bright pinks)
21C was the first light pink in caviar for a long time and it’s just continued from there - now basically every season there’s a gorgeous pink!

I have asked about this before lol and was shown the pink library thread
Does anyone have pictures of this top in the light and darker pink?. For comparison in colors.
I like pink Chanel in general, but pink is so subjective, sort of like red. Everyone's favorite pinks will be different. Different occasions always calls for a different pink. Glad Chanel is rolling out all these pink handbags, so we can choose.
Yes, I remember when Chanel didn't make any pink bags for a very, very long time.

I just got the dark beige mini reissue and I must say the color is growing on me 
The ecru caviar classic flap (NM367) is absolutely unbelievably gorgeous
It’s very neutral and not too pale
This one needs to be seen in person as photos do not do it justice!
Will post photos later

After a long wait for the classic black coco handle, was offered the seasonal one and decided to get it. Ended with other unexpected find, and I came home with these

Welcome to the addiction, er, club. I am also new to Chanel and have found most of my things through a Chanel boutique at the Neiman’s near me. I have learned that the employees at the in-store boutiques are Chanel employees, not employees of the respective store. If your Neiman’s or Nordy’s carry Chanel handbags, RTW, etc. then I encourage you to develop a relationship with them. That will get you into the Chanel system. In my experience, albeit limited, I have found SAs at other Chanel boutiques receptive to me once they know I have shopped with a Chanel SA. I still don’t think they will let you order some items over the phone, but they may help you look in the system to see if there is a bag or small leather good available elsewhere. Some of those items can be transferred between boutiques. I understand the exception is the Classic Flap. Hope that helps! And given that my experience is limited there may be other‘s who correct me. Happy hunting!
I was able to go look at the “lilac” flap to compare with my MS constance. The color is too close for me to justify. Even my SA was like nooo way. It’s much closer than I thought. The lilac is slightly brighter than ms and is beautiful but I had to turn it down. The lighting in the RTW section is awful so sorry the not so great pic 
I did get some good cruise things!!

Has anyone started seeing the detangle ecru and beige(?) mini top handle? Did I miss it in this thread? I guess since I didn’t get the lilac cf I can go after that mini top.
