Nice mini collection and nice choice of colours! I am keen to know which mini you like better, the classic rec or the top handle? The classic or reissue? :smile:

Thank you dear.
I would prefer the classic rec and pearl crush to top handle mini as the straps can be adjusted. I’m only 5”2.
Reissue might be my new favourite considering the various options to carry, on the shoulder and crossbody. It’s crossbody length is perfect for me. But I have yet bring her out (just got the bag the day before I took the family photo! :))

Prefer the classic and pearl crush mini :)
My favourite would be the ruthenium mini in ruthenium hardware, reissue so black and the Barbie pink mini. Too many favourites! Haha

I asked about this in store today and there won’t be any in quilted black with this release. The SA thought there might have been in this collection, but said try January with the next launch so I would maybe try calling around then? I actually went in to ask to be put on the waitlist for the quilted (although they said they aren’t doing this for bags which aren’t planned to be in stock I think?) but ended up liking the chevron so went with that. I was looking for something not too obviously Chanel (ie mademoiselle lock) and I actually already have a quilted classic so this is a bit different and I think a bit more discreet too (although apparently the chevron is also a classic and Gabrielle Chanel wore it too). I don’t think the pictures do the shiny calfskin justice but here we are:

Hope that helps in your search! Xxxx

Have u guys noticed different levels of shiny on the shiny calfskin chevron mini this collection? Any thoughts on that? I prefer less shiny and got one with less shine but now wondering if that’s not how it’s supposed to be?

Mine is super shiny and I’m not sure how I feel about it. I think I would prefer more matte too. Although the intent is a shiny crumpled look but if I had a choice, I would pick the more matte one. Under artificial lighting…

I loved the look of the reissue mini in chevron and tried it on a couple of weeks ago. But, for some reason, the chain on reissues slides right off my shoulder! I don't have that problem with classic flaps. Maybe the interwoven leather gives the chain some grip? I was sad to have to pass over the reissue mini!
