What's in your CHANEL bag today? Include pics!

LOVE IT 110%. It's so beautiful and plush I can go on and on :biggrin:. As for wear, the lambskin is prone to superficial scratches but it's not a big deal because I can buff them out with a finger or the buffing cloth Chanel provides. Otherwise it doesn't have any issues. The leather is a little bit softer compared to it brand new (which felt a little bit tighter), but there's no structural change or change in quilt puffiness... it's just the material getting softer from actually using it. It's also developed a slight patina - not a colour change, but a sort of... sheen? feeling? that Chanel has said would develop over time, which makes me feel like it's giving a small layer of protection over the lamb. It's not noticeable at all unless you're looking for it specifically. I don't baby the bag, but I'm reasonably careful and gentle with it and it's totally fine. I still wouldn't recommend lambskin to people who get stressed out at the idea of their bag getting scratched, or doesn't like to do maintenance on their bags. I buff out the bag after each use just to make sure scratches don't settle in and become permanent. (Sorry for the rambling!)

(edit) I've attached a pic because I'm just so in love with it :P

Hello, I am new to lambskin and had been seeking views on its care. I have a brand new mini and it’s been in the box only and while I wrapped the chains with felt and ensured it stayed on the top of the bag, I was sweating already when I see two dimples one on each side of the back. Hope you can see in the photo. I can’t imagine it when I start holding it or using the bag. I don’t see indentations on a number of the lamb bags on the Chanel thread. Am thankful of course for such great things ! But will I be so lucky myself?
How does one plump up such small dimples if it’s not too deep?
