Congrats on your Beautiful new bag. Do you know how long the strap is? It looks longer than usual in the pics you posted. I haven’t bought a mini in years as I think the straps got shorter...Unfortunately, no boutiques or dept stores are open near me to check it out! Thanks!

Enjoy your bag!
Hi! Thank you! I will let you know the strap length later tonight when I get home.
 
I think the iridescent quality of the black reissue chain is somehow more versatile than if it had been matte black. OP, i think you look gorgeous with yours! . DH was with me when we bought it and he said, the chevron seemed much more youthful than the standard quilting and he thought the mini was really me bc it didn’t fit my new kelly wallet; or my older zip wallets; or my sunglasses case. . . ;) I tried on the next size up, and we thought it looked less cute. . . love mine and hope yo love yours too!

I love it more and more everyday! Thanks to you and the other bag lovers here... I totally agree with you, the black chevron is more edgy I think- it’s just so pretty!

hi!! Strap drop is 21 inches. It’s perfect for my 5’3 height. Hope this helps!

if you don't mind me asking, how much was the mini (is it the 224?) vs. next size up (225?)

The so black mini reissue is $4300 in the US. The so black is priced $500 higher than regular minis ($3800 for classic rectangle and reissue minis). This 20A so black mini is not a 224...it's a single flap mini. The overall size may be similar to the rare 224s.

I don't know if the so black comes in the 225 this season but the price for that would likely be $7K now similar to the so black medium classic flaps.
 
Thank you both for your responses!

Thanks for the info, I was wondering if the so black was priced higher than the regular reissues. I'll probably stalk preloved.

Hi!! 224 is $4300 USD and the 225 is $6500 USD looks like

Yeah I wasn't sure if the so black hardware was same price as the regular hardware (on chanel.com), but from Newbie2016's response it seems like that's the case
