Sweetheart Small Flap in Light Blue or Sweetheart WOC in Light Pink?

Blue. I can't take my eyes off it ♥️

Congrats on baby girl! Agree with majority on getting blue flap, so pretty and better value. You can find another pink piece later!

This week I purchased two sweetheart bags from 24P and I'm trying to decide between the two. The small sized sweetheart flap ($5600) in light blue and the sweetheart WOC in light pink - aka dusty rose. Being I am pregnant with baby #2 and having a girl this time, I wanted to buy a pink bag and was searching for the small sweetheart flap in dusty rose for days until I found out that Chanel ONLY made that color in the mini sweetheart flap ($5400) and this WOC. I cannot understand why they didn't make it in the small flap 😣 So odd! Anyway, both colors and styles are GORGEOUS! The sweetheart bags are amazing with the adorable adjustable heart chain and the little heart on the CC. They are also caviar, which as we know is great for every day!

These two colors together remind me of my favorite Sanrio characters, LITTLE TWIN STARS 🥰

I am currently 8 months pregnant so please excuse my big belly in the modeling shots. Any opinions on which bag and color looks nicer? Like I said, I wanted the pink in the small flap because I feel that bag is the better choice over the WOC but it's not even made so that is not possible. But the light blue is so beautiful too as it has a bit of mint green in it. Truly stunning with the antique gold! Ahhh, tough decision here 😅

Hi @StarBrite310! I love the sweetheart flap bag myself and both colours are stunning.
I purchased the dusty rose pink colour in the size bigger than the mini (small?). My boutique had both sizes available in the dusty rose colour so Chanel definitely made it in a “small” flap. I’ve included pictures of the 2 sizes that I have seen.

Wow that is really interesting because I had four SAs between the Chanel leased departments at Neimans and Saks check and it wasn’t in the system at all under that size. Like the color wasn’t even showing up under the small flap. They checked the entire US. I am going to text my SA who I bought the blue from and show her this photo and the tag.

You said you actually bought the small bag in the dusty rose, the $5600 one? Which boutique?

Okay I actually just looked at my tag for the blue. It also says Mini Flap Bag but you can see the photo of the bag is the small size, the square shape. Yeah, unfortunately it looks like the dusty rose is just in the size down, the more rectangle one. I truly appreciate your post though and your help. I hope you enjoy your beautiful bag 🩷

I purchased mine at our Chanel boutique here in Canada. I bought the largest size (rectangle shape) since I prefer larger bags.
However, my boutique did have the square (small?) size available and this is the photo I took at the boutique. They had 3 of the square/small dusty rose colour available on launch day.
I know that not all boutiques order the same items so that could be the reason why all 4 SAs informed you that they don’t have it in their system.
Do you have a Nordstrom near you? Maybe they ordered the colour and style that Saks and Neiman did not.

If you do decide to keep the blue one, it is also a beautiful bag. Hope you enjoy using it ❤️

Thank you for clarifying. Maybe it was just ordered in Canada then as my SA’s checked every Chanel boutique in the United States and it’s just not found. I could check Nordstrom but if they are also a leased department then it’s all part of the same Chanel boutique system of inventory.

Anyway the bag is amazing no matter the color and I’m really starting to love the blue now so I don’t think I want to part with it 😅

So you bought the size up from the small, the medium?

Not sure if there are more than 2 sizes of the sweetheart flap. I’ve only seen the square and the rectangle and I purchased the rectangle one which could be the medium?

The blue colour is so beautiful. Totally understandable that you don’t want to part with it 😄 I really wanted the green one that came out last year for 23P but missed out on it 💔
I’ve been wanting a sweetheart bag since and so happy that Chanel brought it back in this collection 🎉

There are actually three sizes of the Sweetheart flap, although the biggest size, which is considered the medium, isn’t as popular. I read on this forum how people don’t love that it sorta loses its shape in that size and when I saw it at my local Neiman’s last week, I had to agree. It also I believe is only available in black. Not sure the price of that one… maybe $5800? Anyway. the two most popular sizes are the ones we got! Sounds like you have the mini rectangle ($5400) and then I got the small square ($5600). I found this photo on here that another girl posted of all three sizes so you can see.

But yes the light blue is gorgeous as is the dusty rose! I feel Chanel really hit it out of the park with the pastels this spring 😍 Oh and I know the green color you’re referring to from last year, almost like a golf greenish turquoise. Very pretty but personally, I like the pink one you bought this year so much better 😌 Enjoy!!!

Thank you for sharing the pic with the size comparison. That’s very helpful.

I fully agree with you that Chanel’s 24P collection is absolutely stunning. I could not resist and ended up buying 2 bags! 😮😅

Enjoy your blue sweetheart bag and hope you can share more pics of your bag in action 😄
