Mine came today and it is a cute bag but I just don't love it :sad: weird how you can see a bag online and then just think you will love it! I'm gonna return it.

I got one too from online and it's just too tiny for me. I usually carry MCM mini backpack (to the gym & knock around bag) and it's way smaller than that. It's really adorable though! Mine also is very misaligned LV print from pretty much every angle. What to get instead???

Hi LV lovers! Don't hate but I've more recently been a Chanel lover ... However this mini backpack has me going gah gah!

What I need to know (since I've never seen it in store) is will it fit all my Chanel accessories as pictured?

Thanks you ladies!View attachment 3453091

They are so beautiful!! I'm drooling!

If you don't mind me asking, what size is the middle cosmetic pouch and how much was it? Would love one in caviar.

For those that pack the backpack full of stuff (wallet, cosmetics, phone, cards), when you wear it crossbody does it feel too heavy/straps feel too thin to support the weight?

No, not at all. The strap is very comfortable and since the bag is so lightweight the thin strap supports it just fine. It feels very comfortable crossbody.

Can never say no to a cute functional crossbody- my weakness!!!

I know exactly what you mean! Crossbody bags are my absolute weakness. There's nothing better than a handsfree bag :). Another great thing about this bag is it comes with two straps and you'll probably never use it as a backpack. So if you use it crossbody that means you have a spare strap that looks great on pochettes or even to use down the road when your first strap gets worn down. I personally like the second strap for my pochettes so I can wear them crossbody! :)

I can give you a quick overview about the pros and cons to help you make an informed decision :)

Pros: Very comfortable to wear crossbody- both against your hip area and the strap. The back is padded/thick and squishy. Carefree materials. Very spacious. Can wipe the interior clean. Can stand your items up inside, side-to-side. There's an "extra" strap if you don't wear it as a backpack.

Cons: Front pocket is useless really. The zipper can be stiff at first but softens up with time. The black tabs on the front are very soft and delicate- the first one I got had a white scratch clear across the tab. The second one I got was perfect so I kept that one. But the tabs will probably be the first thing to show wear and tear.

This bag is really adorable and as carefree as the Damier ebene line :). If you're debating, I say check it out in person. You'll most likely want to buy it :)

Can't answer your question as I don't have one BUT I just had to say that your Chanel SLG's are gorgeous [emoji7]

Thank you!

I'm not sure of the middle cosmetic pouch name, as I had bought it pre owned and they just called it a cosmetic pouch. It didn't come with the original tag with the style number either but I was told it was from a few years ago. I paid $725, it is black caviar with SHW!

It's so beautiful! The only ones they have now are the larger sizes flat ones or a really (imo) bulky one that doesn't taper at the top. I REALLY wish I could find the one you have! I recently settled for a smaller pre-owned flat pouch that is also no longer made. It's nice but I'd still trade it in for yours in a heartbeat!
