Sharing some mod shots of my new Small Caro in black with silver hardware. I changed my mind from initially wanting the larger version in grey as I am missing a small black mini bag. This may not be my last one, though. The details are amazing and I already foresee the bag assuming a crucial role in my collection.
It looks amazing on you!! I have yet to see the small with SHW avail here in the USA. It's a perfect mini black bag, I like it much more than Chanel's version! Congrats!
This was exactly my thought. I sold all of my Chanel Rectangular Minis at one point as they all seemed misshapen and uneven to me (I prefer edge stitching on them as it seems to make the Minis more structured and straight but only few Minis have it) so I've been left without a black mini handbag for a few years now. When my SA messaged me that she had a black with silver available I was sold. Not only does it look better than the Chanel Mini, it's also a lot more practical and crafted with a lot more attention to detail.
Thank you, @averagejoe! Not my best look but the bag seems to elevate any outfit.
Hi! I just bought the same Caro as you but I can’t seem to figure out how to detach the chain strap! Would you mind forwarding the video of how to do it? Thanks so much,

Oh it took me way too long to figure it out. Mid chain, two of the chains have little notches- when you move the chains to the side, they slide apart, which “breaks” the chain so you can slide it out.
Do you guys find that the metallics do that on lizard skin bags? Or other “exotics”?Yessss good point on the metallic even if it is gorgeous. Unfortunately when metallic finish wears down, I find bags to look a bit “dirty“. Thank you for your reply and good advice @averagejoe
I kept going back to the website and confirming they said it was a removable strap. And I’d look at the strap and be like, it doesn’t slide out tho. Back and forth finally I watch Dior’s “the making of” large size and watched them assemble it and thought... sonofabiscuit, it’s in the links mid chain?? Et voila.
I bought the small Rose des Vents Caro this weekend and of course the price is the same now as it was before. LOL. I would love to see what others are able to fit in this bag...it is a little smaller than I was expecting but the back pocket can hold my phone which is a HUGE plus!
Of course! It’s Weekend Max Mara (100% virgin wool) from the fall/winter 20/21 collection. You may still be able to find it.
