Please help - do I keep this black Chanel mini handle?

I hooked one side with the buckle my SA gave me. I just want the bag to sit a bit higher around my hip as I am pretty petite. Make sure the hook goes through both inner and outer chain. Hope this helps.

Oh nice I love that! Thank you!! How do you think this shiny lamb will hold up overtime? I was debating on buying a bag organizer. Have you gotten one for it?
 
I have inner bags for almost all my bags and yes will definitely get one for this one. The bag organizer will hold up the shape and I would not be too worried about it. Even if it doesn’t hold up the shape, I will still use it tons. They meant be to used :smile: I usually don’t buy lamb bags but I can’t say no to this on when I saw it and tried it on in the boutique. Only wish the price is not this crazy though.

I know!!! The price was insane. But the prices keep going up so I need to stock up lol
 
I also bought a bag in shiny lambskin. I have been told that there is some sort of finish on the leather to make it more durable and protect from scratches.
I bought my bag on end of September so I can’t really tell the wear and tear. But I am curious as well about the durability of shiny lambskin compared to the regular one.

I think Chanel has improved their lamb durability in the recent collections. I saw a rectangular mini handle with handle today in NM, somehow I feel the texture is more firm and sleek. As for the shiny lamb skin, I love love the finishing. I can’t stop petting it since I got it. I have this for two months, still looks like new. An insert bag would definitely help holding up the shape.

Glad you kept it! I heard prices are going up at the end of the month. Not sure if that’s true.
I hope you don’t mind me hopping on this post as I’m also struggling to decide about my mini.

Do I sell or keep this preloved mini rectangular lambskin in light pink- 27 series with some corner wear and some of the leather near the stitching seems to be turning white ( please see photos). IMG_1672.jpegIMG_1670.jpegIMG_1669.jpegI got it for a great deal and unsure what to do. I don’t want to worry about using it but also don’t think I’ll ever come across a deal like this.

Corner scuffs like that would always bother me and personally, are a dealbreaker for preloved bags - not sure how much you paid but you would have to weigh that against how bothered you would feel every time you see the scuffs.
