Hello, I have been looking for the Mini flapbag in black lambskin which seems to be sold out in Europe atm.
I am based in Austria/Germany and I was wondering if you girls think that they will be available again when the Cruise collection comes out??
I am also wondering if I should maybe get the Pearl Crush Mini instead? I like the adjustable strap but was wondering about the weight. Is it a lot heavier?

thanks in advance for your input. :heart:

I was in europe and wasn’t able to find a mini either. I saw in the chanel 22c forum that there will be minis released for the cruise collection

I got a burgundy rectangular flap mini from 21K and compared to my mini from 21B, the 21K leather is less buttery soft and does seem a bit “dry” feeling but I don’t mind. On the plus side the 21K quilts are puffier. I got another 21K mini in black arriving next week so I’m going to compare further.

Did your 21K mini in black arrive? I got one too and curious to know your thoughts and see pics if you’re willing to share.

hi, i recently purchased a mini rectangle flap in black calfskin. Just wondering, what's the difference between lambskin and calfskin? They look pretty much the same to me. Do I need to be more careful with the calfskin? PS i was able to find a mini rec within one day of looking around, seems the smaller boutiques are more likely to have stocks!

Hi everyone! I’m new here. If you were choosing your very first Chanel bag what would you go with? The mini or the small in caviar? I’m having trouble deciding and finding both :sad:

Def classic flap I have the mini and small classic and I can fit in more in the small classic than the mini and also it’s just an overall nicer looking and better quality bag

Hi everyone, this may seem like a weird request but will someone be so kind to share some photos of the Chanel wording inside their mini square flaps purchased this year (the version with the microchip)?

I recently bought one from a re-seller at a premium because it’s just so hard to get in store and I got tired of waiting. When I came home and compared this bag to my rectangular mini which I bought instore back in 2016, the wordings from my mini square looks a bit skinnier??? Which is making me very worried that I may have bought a fake bag......

The person who sold this bag to me said this was only purchased a couple of weeks back in September and I double checked that the microchip serial number on the receipt did indeed match the serial number on the microchip inside the bag. But the slight difference in the Chanel wording between my rectangular mini (bought in store) and my current mini square is making me very anxious.

Oh and I also compared the size of the box that it came in -it seemed just a wee bit bigger than my rectangular mini. And the camellia flower also had a smooth surface rather than the textured fabric one that came with my rectangular mini. And also, the paper bag felt a bit diff? It felt slightly thinner and had a matte texture. Am I over analyzing this? Ahh I’m just so worried!

Thank you in advance to anybody who is willing to share their photos!
