I found this beautiful blue mini at the boutique. I think it was a seasonal piece from last year(20P or 20 S?). However, the SA gave me such *****y vibe, I had to give it a pass as I didn’t want to give my money to this person. Still, I really like the bag though! *sigh* Did I do the right thing?! Anyone here has this bag?

I have this one but in the black color.
Why not try to buy it true another SA?

That’s what I thought as well. However, I decided that I’d rather get it in black anyway (and of course, they didn’t have it) Did yours have any issues with the chain? I saw someone mentioned that it could get twisted? Any problems on the hardware chipping?

mine doesn’t have any issues. But to be fair, I only have it for a month and have only used it in the weekend. The chain isn’t twisted.
It took them a week to find one ( I live in Europe) if you want, I can send you some pictures ? ‍♀️

In case someone is still wondering what the dark beige mini looks like, here it is. I got my hands on it through my great SA. Apparently each boutique doesn’t get many of these (my boutique only received 2 that time and I got one of the 2). This beige tone looks different depending on the lighting. It looks lighter (like a milk tea colour) in daylight and dark beige (Dalgona coffee I’d say) like on this pic in indoor lights. Highly recommend it if you are on the about fence.

Hi all! Love this minis thread. I am
Currently considering a black LGHW chanel mini rectangle but undecided between chevron or quilted. Can anyone share their inputs? :biggrin: I have a black M/L CF With GHW in my collection.

Definitely a chevron one then. I am in the same boat as you. Have the M/L black GHW and wanna add a chevron mini with LGHW but Chanel hasn’t released this combination since 20S?! They only had black chevron with SHW in 21C... Hopefully 21A will have this combo.
 
Love your minis!! Do you tend to reach for gold or silver hardware more often?
Thank you. Most of the time, I tend to reach out for GHW more in the classic flaps. In the minis, I love the LGHW because it tends to go well with either silver or gold jewelry pieces :smile:. I use the SHW only when all my accessories are silver and color wardrobe goes better with silver hardware;).

I recently bought a mini rectangle from a reputable seller. It’s my first
LAmbskin so I don’t really know what to expect. The bag is 24 series. Everything else looks pristine but I am just wondering about the wear and tear on the chain strap. Front and back of the strap looks good. I’m just wondering if the wear and tear around the “seam” if it’s normal. Thanks
