Hi! I’m so excited to share my first Chanel classic flap! The 23C Dove Gray with LGHW. It was the most thoughtful and kind gift from my significant other. I’m still shocked and just feel so blessed. Thank you all for letting me share

This is my dream color combination. I originally thought I wanted silver hardware with gray, but the light gold is the perfect hardware and is so versatile. The light gold is a true chameleon and looks silver in some lighting and gold in others.

It's gorgeous ! Almost looks a little silver, and then a little light blue
Is this the medium or Jumbo size? Your significant other did really well!! Enjoy your new beauty!

Hello all, do we have an "Authenticate this Chanel" thread that's recent? I could use some help, but I'm not sure where it would be appropriate to post. Thanks
There isn’t one currently. I think it’s partly due to the “superfakes” - they are almost impossible to authenticate from just the photos. Authenticators need to see the bag in person in order to be 100% sure.
 
I have not been loving Chanel in recent years with price increase and quality questions, but also remained passively keeping an eye out for a color simple WOC. i have a 13 year old black reissue detail one I use often, but I live in Hawaii and it's nice to wear some color. I had also not been overly impressed with the few color WOC's I had been coming across in the last couple of years, some seemed so plastic-y, something crooked, something just didn't seem right etc etc.... But, saw this one yesterday, such a great color for a tropical area, not too easter egg pastel, not too bright, not too drab, goes with with a ton of my tropical "aloha" type dresses and it just felt so solid and well made, so it was a winner. Quite possibly my last Chanel purchase aside from shoes/accessories/SLG (I know this is technically SLG but I'm talking card case/key case etc.) but so far I'm feeling really good about it!
