Congrats on your purchases, the iridescent white is beautiful. Did you see a small size in store?My husband may take the credit card away shortly! No spend January took a turn....Got these earrings that I turned down last year (with regrets) and this beautiful Chanel 19 in 21P Iridescent, also got a pair of black espadrilles (not pictured). Took a picture with and without flash. The bag is a STUNNER in person, but I'm reallllly nervous about caring for it. Was one of the reasons I didn't go for the white 19 originally, but this one is hard to pass up.

Shoutout and massive thank you to Nat74 for helping me track this baby down.
I live in a country without a Chanel store, the nearest being a 2-hour plane trip across the ocean, so I usually have to buy it on my travels, or at the mercy of local personal shoppers who are based abroad. I sent out price requests for this bag... and they were charging an exorbitant mark-up, which made me initially decide not to get it.
But she’s just so beautiful and I couldn’t get her out of my head, so I decided to turn to the ISO thread, just in case! I’ve been reading stories of you guys getting your Chanels shipped to your addresses in the States, so I thought I’d try my hand.
Lo and behold, Nat74 told me that the NM in SF had it on display, so I sent the SA an email, telling him of my predicament. To my relief, he was not put off by my um, sheer enthusiasm, lol. Also I live in Asia, so I had to do my interactions with him at 6:30AM my time, 2:30 SF time.
I had it shipped to my forwarder in the States (I really kept a close eye on the Fedex tracker because Farfetch very recently just lost a pair of Margiela jeans I ordered -_-) and two weeks later, she was delivered to our house, box and camellia and ribbon and all.
Funnily enough, I spotted her in the side mirror while I was backing into the garage. Apparently our helper put the box on top of a bigger box in the garage, but I had stared enough times at the photo of it that the forwarder had sent to just know that it was THE BOX. In my giddiness, I inadvertently started shrieking, startling my mom. Please remember that I was backing my car into the garage, so my mom had thought that I went into a temporary bout of sanity, lol
Anyway, she’s here! I can finally stop looking at her so longingly wherever I can catch a glimpse of her on the internet...
Next on my list, those cute scrunchies with the bow... Now that I have an SA on my Whatsapp, this is proving to be very dangerous territory...

It really is! Thank you! I didn’t go in. My SA had me on the list. I believe he had a pink version in small if I’m not mistaken.Congrats on your purchases, the iridescent white is beautiful. Did you see a small size in store?

New boots! Pretty cognac color and I found them true to size View attachment 4967404View attachment 4967405
Give them a try! They hit at about/below the calf muscle so they might work out for youThese are TO DIE FOR- so want a pair but I'm worried that my calves are too muscular for them.
2nd reveal of the month.. iridescent mini o case
Unsure if I’m keeping it as it’s a lot smaller than expected but it does go really well with my cardholder

To die for!!!! This is next in line for me21p medium CF. Just got this beauty! It’s even prettier in person. The true color is not captured well in the pics. It is more like a softer Barbie pink in person. Love it!
