Beautiful adds!!! The Caro seems like such a functional bag with the back pocket, ability to crossbody or wear on the shoulder. and the adjustable strap. @TraceySH, is the last bag the teal greenish blue, think it's called Steel Blue? Do you happen to know if there is a Caro coming in the Cruise Cornflower blue or just the Greek blue? Also, how would you describe the macro leather versus than the standard cannage in the Caros? And have you found either delicate? Thanks for the info.

My gray medium Caro arrived today as well. I love it. It's a great shade of gray! The macro leather is very pillow-like, reminds me of the Chanel 19, which I'm also a fan of. Love the gunmetal chain, it's really stunning and makes it a bit edgy. Really looking forward to using it! Looks like a great everyday bag!

I have to admit that it was also an enjoyable and easy process...perhaps more apparent than ever as Chanel faces another huge price increase so soon after the last PI, while continuing to complicate the buying process. I'm already eyeing a few other Caros!

@averagejoe I am going to answer here but you might want to move to the regular thread?

And it's VERY functional! Caro is just coming in the Greek blue, small size. Also coming tho is a dark green & ivory in the MacroCannage. Macro leather is shiny and supple, where the regular Caro calf is more of a grained? Flatter for sure. I like them both equally, the Macro I think is just really special! NONE are delicate!!

She's a real beauty :heart: I love your Caro collection!!! Recently I was also thinking about getting grey Lady Dior, but I guess Caro seems to suit my lifestyle more. Besides work, I'm too lazy to dress up :cool: and I'm more of a casual girl...and Caro is so easy style with whatever LOL.

You know I think that these crazy increases will help brands like Dior, with beautiful sleeper sort of quality, at least amongst the handbag crazies, pick up some new clients. And jumbos omg @OCMomof3 - with tax over 10k! It’s not that I CAN’T, it’s just getting to be a very stupid amount to spend. No doubt 19s gonna get to 7k soon. Minis are 5k now. Why would we not buy Dior???

Agree 100% with all of this. To me, $10k and up = Hermes. Not interested in paying that price for Chanel. :shocked:

Dior has always had this really magical appeal to me. I remember pulling Dior ads out of fashion mags and putting them on the wall of my college dorm room :lol: I got caught up in the Chanel hype for a bit but with this latest price increase I'm looking forward to sticking with Dior.

Anyway I'm hoping Caro comes out in ultra matte black at some point :loveeyes:

Yeah let’s support Dior. They produce very good quality bag, customer service awesome, not like bunch arrogant Chanel SA , lately some of them don’t even reply text. We all know Dior resell value not too good but the more the brand gains followers and fans hopefully will be better In near future. One thing I notice that lady Dior resell value is getting better and better now . I love Caro design and hope can become classic ….

+1. Ready to support it more now than ever. When the Caro came out, I was reminded how phenomenal and impressive Dior quality was. It made me feel so bad for taking a hiatus with them. I think ultimately it's up to us consumers to prop op (or abandon) brands. I think buying a luxury item based on merit (quality, design, experience, customer service) seems smarter than buying on hype/ games/ artificial scarcity/ etc. Time to feel better about my purchases.

100% i'd rather support dior. their customer service is amazing. i really liked some designs of chanel, but whenever i went into the stores, the sales associates seemed rather arrogant :// there was one instance where i was looking for a cardholder, my sa ditched me for other customers...dior is the opposite though. i went in for a lady dior as a graduation present to myself. my sa was SO helpful. he hyped me up and everything. i honestly feel better about putting my money towards dior over chanel after the numerous times i've been in chanel.
