I am looking for a red m/l flap (possibly reissue) with chevron and also a jumbo either in gray or black. I have officially caught the Chanel bug after acquiring my first black 225 reissue. Love it!
Plotting for 2017! What new Chanel purchase are you considering in the new year?
- Thread starter Sparkletastic
- Start date
Now that I have my reissue 226, I'm hoping to score a black caviar WOC with gold hardware this year.
Yay here it is - it's actually a Mother's Day present from hubby and kids
I will have to postpone my search for a grey reissue. Need to replenish family funds [emoji12]
We're at the halfway point. 6 months down and 6 months to go! How is everyone doing? Have you made your purchases? Changed your list of to buys? Started over when you fell in love with something expected?
My 6 month update:
I was plotting to get
• Single flap jumbo
• Metallic or exotic Boy
• Pearly beige lamb jumbo
• Black/grey tweed jacket
Where I am:
Purchased
• Gunmetal grey lamb single flap jumbo w/Bijoux chain
• Gold perforated lamb new medium Boy
• Beige lamb / black calf chevron tote
• Silver lamb card holder
• Black boots
Passed
• Pearly Ivory Jumbo - was offered one by a personal shopper. But I had to accept I just don't like/want double flap bags.
So, sadly, this is coming off my list. 
Added to my 2017 Chanel to buy list
• Black tote - I have searched in 13 Chanel boutiques across 4 countries plus every preloved / consignment website I know. Still haven't found the perfect one. Argh!
This is a must find!
Still outstanding
• Jacket(s) - I'm debating on color. So TBD.
Please share your updates!
And pictures are very much encouraged!

This is so funny to me. You plotted to get one bag and got several other lovelies. But I love your determination in putting the original bag in the plot for 2018! Love it!
I'd love to see that silver camera bag. It sounds yummy! And the boots. I just bought my first pair of Chanel boots. I can definitely see more coming!
Ooooh yes! I remember you posting those lovely cat eye sunnies. You got a lot of nice items!
Great haul! And, again, isn't it so funny how we plan one thing and fall in love with other beauties along the way?
Lol yes I'm determined to add the grey reissue but I keep getting distracted! I will def post pics once I get the camera bag! And here are the boots - Although it's winter here it's not cold enough for these boots yet..
Love it. Does this have a middle zip section?
These are adorable!
And keep focused on your goal. That grey reissue will be yours.

Re: the Timeless Tote, I don't believe so.
