That looks good on you! Do you have a modeling picture with the 14b small? Debating between that and the classical m/l chevron as well :(. I am usually a caviar person just bc I don't baby my bags. So I was thinking if I want to get a lamb since chevron only comes in lamb, then it better be the cheaper ones.

Hi, I do have a modeling pic. I for some reason cannot post pics right now. I have one of the beige on my IG: mommaheartsfashion. I did return the beige, bc of the color. I kept the black lamb. I do not baby my bags at all. I have a 4 and 2 year old and I do not find my lamb anymore delicate than my caviar. HTH

JE, so the new classic Chevron is double flap for m/l and jumbo then?

I have/had the small 14b beige (size is similar to m/l) and large black 14b (size similar to jumbo, but more east/west). I love them both but prefer the the 14B, because it has a thinner chain and longer drop length. I also think there is something about the shape of the 14B that is a little different and chic. I think I prefer classics quilted and chevrons seasonal. I wish they would do the same drop length on the classics as the 14B, especially for the m/l size. That being said, I am sure I will get the black on black or red chevron classic...sigh. Here is a pic of the large 14B Chevron on. The "new" classic chevrons will fit exactly how classic quilted double flaps fit.

Yes, per Hirsh, they said they will be constructed exactly like current classic flaps with double flap, same dimensions, and drop length on chains. Do not quote me though! Seems I am being misinformed left and right about Chanel esp GST rumors. ;-)

It's cute but I feel as though we could make one just like it with some paint and an old canvas bag. And the price should reflect canvas vs leather a bit more...:laugh:

I know what you are saying, lol. I just love it though, but agree that the price for canvas is a little high. Although the cute buttons on it help.

I went to put my name on the waitlist at my local neimans and it was the number one requested bag. I think I was meant to be a 60s child. I LOVE IT!

Really, I think I am the only one on the list for the larger messenger at my local store. Did you go for the one shown or the more east/west bag? I am with you and love these bags, the details are so 60's.

They also did some cute buttons/brooches that you can see on the runway pics of these bags.

I agree! 14b chevron design is better. Yours is lovely! Red one looks good in the pic posted here in a mini size, shiny leather, don't remember if patent but I do remember it's pretty

The problem I have is small wallets can only go with m/l or jumbo...

so I don't use them often..I use wocs with my GSTs and larger totes so also no point taking small wallets out with them.

How do you use yours then? Mine has been in the closet

I only have a long wallet since I only have big bags, but now that I'm planning on getting a few minis, I need something smaller. I love the card holders, but they are just not practical for me. I heard the new wallets will be perfect for the minis. Unfortunately I don't have any more details. To be honest though, I destroy my wallets 😔. I love my Chanel wallet now, but I got it in lamb and that was a big mistake for me. I have had it for a bit over a year and the corners are not in good shape. Not sure I want to pay over 1k for a wallet that just doesn't last that long 😲. Do you have the same experience? What kind of leather do you usually get in your wallets?

I agree with u Lambskin and wallets are not a good combo for me either. I only get caviar for chanel wallets; but honestly my favorite is LV monogram canvas, you can do anything to it and all of mine look as good as the day I got them. :smile1:
