January 2020 - Please Share Your Chanel Purchases

Treated myself to one of my final wish list items at 19 Rue Cambon this weekend (my first time at that location!), a 2.55 Reissue (226) and it was a So Black (19K) to boot! Really happy to get something from Karl Lagerfeld’s last collection (even if it’s a classic design / colour combo). I’m getting used to the softness and bendiness of the flap’s leather (is this normal?). I love how light it is. (Also got upsold on some cosmetics. They get me every time! ) Thanks for letting me share!

Oooh she's a beauty!!
 
My contribution for this month i was not looking to buy anything but saw this at NM and fell in love. I know the 19 flap bag is much more popular and even though i never liked it in pictures, i really liked that one in person too. Maybe if they had that in navy I might have purchased that but its sold out. They only had hot pink. My husband liked the elegant chain more too and I also thought since this was love at first sight, I should get this. Maybe will get the 19 flap bag in another color later this yr :smile:A4A16201-D901-4967-B284-DC7B5C8DEAA7.jpeg32227BE8-F368-47EC-BE5F-CC1AD742FC07.jpeg4C6F4EC2-3126-48E2-B8A9-CEEA4320B99F.jpeg87941603-B634-4B99-BA7B-37208A0935F8.jpeg4DAE210F-99CF-41B3-8529-658FED6ED052.jpeg

Congrats on your new beauty!

the pink 19 in your photo, is that a medium or large? I haven’t seen a medium or large (I guess “large” and “maxi”) in person yet and I’m wondering which size I prefer more!

Thanks :smile: Its the small actually.. I have not seen the large and maxi in person but I am thinking they must be quite big then.

Wow! Thanks for sharing this!! It's the first time I saw this new color. Could you post a photo of you carrying it in the natural sunlight? I’ve been waiting for a small black 19 FOREVER, but my SA said they only got the new colors coming in Jan - grey, coral and navy...I’m now seriously considering a different color other than the black...[emoji45][emoji45]
