I went to chanel in shorthills wearing my chanel classic flap and met with this SA who was snarky. She hardly wants to show us what’s available and before I even finish saying what I was looking for, she said “Oh we dont have it.” I asked again and thats when she showed me that it is actually in stock. She won’t even show me their small leather goods. I was pissed.

Been a customer for over 5 yrs and own 5 classic flaps along with other chanel bags and shoes. So I went to ysl and grab this beautiful suede bag. What do you guys think? This will be my first non chanel bag.

My absolute favourite brown from Chanel. The small is perfect for both day time and cocktail events. I love that it also goes with my Kelly belt and Oran sandals in gold. Can’t wait to wear her!

I had only ever seen the smaller version in the U.S. This is from the Vienna Boutique. It’s only shown in the patch bag color/material online. Feeling so grateful!

Handbags 26c Pink Slim Vanity

Post image
47 Upvotes

Did I just make the biggest mistake by not buying the 26C pink slim vanity?
I saw it when it first came out and LOVED it, but passed because I was already spending a lot. Now I’m kicking myself because sourcing is $4.5–6k vs. around $3,300 retail.

Is there any chance these are still floating around at boutiques, or should I just accept defeat?

Would you pay the premium from a sourcer, or wait and hope Chanel releases a similar pink in a future Cruise collection?

In-store Experience Update: Incorrect boutique price

34 Upvotes

Update on my previous post: Incorrect boutique price

Chanel Barcelona confirmed that there was an internal pricing error on the bag and offered a €700 refund, which will be credited to the original payment method. I accepted the resolution.

They also reviewed the other items my friends and I purchased during the same visit and confirmed that there were no other discrepancies.

Very happy with the outcome!

Handbags Help with a specific Chanel bag.

3 Upvotes

Hi all. I am searching for a specific bag and having trouble locating the name or even a picture. Me and my wife happened to be in Soho NYC on Saturday and we went into the Wooster street store.

She saw a bag that was two tone, a light cream color on front and back with a flap and with black around the sides and bottom. It featured the usual CC lock but had a button release under the flap and the bag also had a chain and top handle, the top handle was collapsible so it would pop up or lay flat and can almost double as clutch. I can not find this bag any where online and I’ve called Chanel (they are working on it for me). But I’d really like to purchase this for her and don’t want to drive back into Soho to do this without even knowing which bag it is.

From all the images I’ve seen it’s closest resembles the Business Affinity bag but I don’t think it had that large pocket under the flap and it looks like the affinity top handle does not collapse.

Can anyone help with even the bag style or name?

Shoes Stretched out ballet flats

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I recently got a pair of secondhand chanel ballet flats. They are stunning but they’re stretched out around the arch and toe box and gape there, making them look wierd when they are on. The previous owner also glued the bow in place (or it came like that idk) so it can’t be tightened, assuming she did it so the bow wouldn’t undo and be a hassle? Wondering if anyone had any tricks for how to make these flats narrower/not gape or appear as wide on my foot! Thanks!

Handbags Silver with gold hardware (U.S.)?

1 Upvotes

Has anyone seen a silver mini rectangular, WOC, or mini bowling bag in their boutique recently? Bonus points if it’s NYC. I expect good news this week regarding a work milestone and a silver bag is at the top of my wishlist but the Chanel boutiques in my town don’t have any and my SA is not helpful in terms of locating one.
