This is literally my first Chanel bag. My husband decided to gift me a Chanel for my birthday in August and since then I started researching which bag I would want, then I found the Kelly and absolutely fell in love with the vintage feels, price tag, and lack of attainablity. I reached out to a few Sales Associates and they basically told me that it is too hard to come by, they have a waitlist etc. I live in nyc, and eventually found the nano size but honestly it was so tiny and looked quite comical on me. Then today on drop day I dropped by 3 stores in nyc and noticed the nano version. I asked the sales associate there, by any chance do you have the mini size and he said, "oh do you mean this?" And literally I was shocked. I purchased it on spot. They only received one today and I was the lucky customer to find it!! Anyways, I feel like I'm on cloud nine. Totally the best first Chanel ever.

I didn't expect they wouldn't bring them back for 24b

I also thought they would keep re releasing more colours and perhaps even making it a classic but my FA told me they heard that they will not produce them again. She said she thought it had something to do with Virginie no longer being creative director and it’s one of her designs.

It’s definitely not been available for pre order for the upcoming seasons (24K, 25C or 25P).
