I have a purple chevron mini rectangle, I love it as it’s different to the usual quilt. I also have a square mini. Personally I like the rectangle as can fit a phone side ways. I have a pro max.
I definitely want to add a chevron into my collection at some point. It is a unique quilt like you said and not commonly seen. Thank you for pointing out the phone. It is a good point to consider, luckily I usually just have my phone in my pocket.

Mini rectangular with quilting. I feel the chain is longer on the mini-rec. Have you tried them on?
Yes I did try both the rectangular and the square on. I posted a few pictures on page 1. I heard the square has shorter chain but maybe bc i am not that talk, it does fit me perfectly too. The rectangular for some reasons appears super small on my frame. Let me know what you think from the pictures ;) thank you so much!!
 
Mini square all the way. Not to offend anyone but I find that the rectangular looks a bit cheap/ fake sometimes, I think the lack of a double flap and the fact that they are all lambskin these days sometimes makes the flap close in a weird, lobsided way. Often when the rec. is full you see one side sticking out much more than the other, due to the lack of structure. To me the overal design is just a bit flimsey Looking. Like a child’s replica.
If I were you I’d try to get a caviar one preloved, they hold their structure so much better.
 
Definitely very helpful and thank you so much for helping me breaking down the thought process. Since it is almost impossible to try a square mini on at the boutique, long story short, I found one from FASHIONPHILE and it is in caviar, preloved, a little bit old with flaws (2010) but to my surprise opening the box today, the condition was a lot better than I thought. I got it for a pretty good price too but undecided whether I should keep it or to get a mini reissue instead. However, with the limited stock at this point and next price increase is upon us including the mini, I start to lose some hope. I attach a few pictures here of both me wearing the rectangular and the square, what do you think? Should I keep it or return? Sorry for the many questions.

I love the mini rectangle on you! I didn't know they make that size in that Tweed. Where did you see that bag? I tried on the medium version but would love to find the mini rectangle in that tweed pattern.

I saw that bag at the South Coast plaza boutique in California during one of my recent trip, it was a few months back though so i am unsure if they still have it tbh. Sorry I didn’t ask which season it was but my guess is same season with the medium tweed you tried on ;)

No worries! Thank you for letting me know. I'll ask about it :)
Also, saw that you kept the red mini square! Congrats!

Thanks for your input. I think finding a caviar rectangular at this point is like hunting treasures but I am lucky enough to find a caviar square at a good price. I have pictures on page 1. Let me know what you think. I don’t think i would be hunting for a rectangular since they look too similar to a classic flap and so small on me. Might want a chevron mini reissue down the line though. We’ll see ;)

LOVE the red square you got on you! I would keep it, it’s such a fun pop of color and the caviar ones are becoming harder to find these days. Maybe also get a reissue?:biggrin: :P :biggrin:
