What does everyone think of the new mini flaps with top handles that are to be released this year? Also if you have a picture please drop it so people know what I’m referring to haha.

to me, it looks like a replica bag that is made just different enough to not to be sued by chanel. i’m tall and mid-sized, it would look like a child’s bag on my frame. pass for me.
While I love the fact that it’s caviar, I hate the handle. It’s better to get coco handle. At least it looks normal bag.
When I first saw pics of it, I didn’t like it at all. Thought it looked like a replica but probably because I was used to seeing the ever so popular rectangular mini. Changed my mind when I saw it on the runway. Seemed a little more edgy and casual than the coco handle. I am a fan 
Also, I dont think the concept/design was new at all as I have seen some vintage chanel in the rectangular shape with a handle (similar to that of the coco handle).

I’ve been mulling this over as well...I think it looks odd unfortunately. Its a great concept since I love bags that also have a top handle so I am disappointed. Maybe it will grow on me but I kind of doubt it.
Not interested in it because of the handle, especially when I am still waiting to get my first rectangular mini.
Totally love!
I am bored of the classic bag (even though I own my fair share), it needed a slight update

I would prefer to get that than older rectangle mini caviar at super high prices.
I don't like that the strap is much thinner than a regular rectangular mini strap. I prefer my extra mini coco handles.
Oh really? Didn’t know that about the strap. Thanks for the info!
I would consider this a 'good deal' for Chanel compared to the mini it is 'only' +$300 for a strap AND handle! lol
And I think it is a good alternative to those would miss the mini caviar. Best to buy it at its 'entry' price because we all know it'll get a price increase at some point
