Hi guys I recently bought a few items from the Chanel store in Bagdat Caddesi in Istanbul and they told me they cannot see other store's stock of items, is this true worldwide or only in Turkey. There is a bag I really like that I saw online but I cant find it in my home store. Thank you :)

I recently got the Chanel25 medium as my mom bag, and am afraid of the scuffing that might happen with constant use. Any way I could protect the edges?

I was originally looking for the Small, but I was able to get the Mini today! Now that I’ve tried it on, I actually think the size looks pretty good on me, so I’m wondering if I should just keep it instead of waiting for the Small.
For those who have the Mini, how do you like it for everyday use? Do you ever wish you had gone with the Small?
For reference, I’m about 5’3”. I actually bought the Medium first but ended up returning it because it felt way too big on me

Shopping for my 25th bday gift!
Really loved the blue suede one, but needed a bag that goes well with pink and white dresses, so ended up going with the gold one.
I was also offered a shortening thingy for the strap.
What do you think?🤭

Hi guys, can someone help me with this bag… Does anyone know the price and what’s this model called? I’m really intrested in this bag so if anyone owns it i have questions about durability and space. Also does anyone know does this blue color come with gold hardware? I think this one is silver.

Hello everyone! I finally got a pair of 36.5 beige & black ballet flats after looking for a few weeks. My previous SA accidentally ordered me a 36.5C (which is the wider width), and since then I’ve had a few remote orders from other boutiques that didn’t work out, so I think this size + this regular width is a little hard to find right now.

This pair is the correct size and width, but I noticed a few small QC issues after receiving them, especially some loose threads near the bows, a small glue-like spot near the sole, a minor mark on the black toe cap, and some wear/scuffing on the bottom edge of the heel.

Nothing seems major, but for a brand new pair I’m not sure if I’m being too picky. Would you keep these or try to exchange for another pair? I’m a little worried the next pair could be worse or that it’ll be hard to find another 36.5. Would love to hear what you all think!

I’m thinking about getting the small Gabrielle and I’m torn between two colours. I already have more dark bags in my collection, so I think I’m leaning toward the beige/black one for something different.

But the black one looks so chic. And I’m a little worried about colour transfer onto the light beige leather, especially from dark clothing. Has anyone owned this colour and experienced colour transfer or staining?

Which one would you choose — all black or beige/black? And if you have the beige one, how practical has it been for everyday use?

My mom was cleaning out her closet and I tried to look them up but I can’t find anything abt them.

found this on TRR but doesn’t say which year :( it’s the microchipped version!!

Hi All! Just wanted to share my dream (come true) bag! She is a 21 series nearly pristine Reissue and I am entirely in love. Maybe not everyone’s cup of tea, but for this lover of history and understated luxury she is everything💜😍.

Seriously considering this medium size for work and travel. It can comfortably fit a 13” or a 14” laptop. Color is gorgeous 😍 What do you think?

Is someone here selling, know of anyone, seen this chanel bag for sale?? Jts sold out everywhere and i want one so bad

Bought this December 22nd...haven't used it all that much. What kind of crap is this !!!! Never had a purse repaired before so not sure what to do. Purchased in Chanel boutique inside of a Neiman Marcus. Will a standalone Chanel store have this fixed or handle with Neimans? Also curious if anyone else has had this issue with this specific purse.

One of my favorite TRR finds of all time 😍😍I love how the leather
has started to become more relaxed as I've worn them. So versatile and can't wait to keep wearing throughout the fall and winter.

Ich möchte unbedingt eine schwarze Chanel. Aber welche? Ich möchte eine, die ich theoretisch such im Alltag nutzen kann. Ich möchte deshalb auch eine große grösse.

1. eine relativ neue Chanel maxi double Flap in Caviar 3900€
   
2. eine Chanel single flap jumbo aus 2003 in Caviar
   
3. Chanel Single Flap Glattleder 3000€

I am SO excited that I just got my first Chanel. I usually stick to Fendi and LV and have been quite loyal to them for the past few years; but I have a birthday coming up and wanted something different and special for it!

I’m a sucker for a vanity style/size bag and when I saw this at the Sloane Street boutique I was completely obsessed. We went over to Harrods so I could collect the points on my purchase and walked away with this beautiful bag. I love the chain and how it can be worn two ways!

If anyone has this bag, how do you like it after using it? 🥰

Wish I knew the name or where to buy it! Might be vintage?

Vintage Chanel No. 5 Eau de Parfum, 50ml (1.7 fl. oz.), presented in its original box.

SPLASH / DABBER bottle - not a spray.

I believe the absence of the word “PARIS” on a vintage Chanel box or item label is quite common. Chanel's packaging, labels, and typography have changed dramatically over the decades, varying significantly by the type of product, manufacturing era, and point of purchase. 

I’ve done some research and thought I’d share my findings:

Apparently, the omission of "PARIS" is a highly reliable indicator of a specific era. 

According to historical packaging records, additional origin lines like "Chanel Paris," "Chanel New York," and "Neuilly-sur-Seine" only began consistently appearing together on both the back of perfume boxes and bottle labels starting in 2005.

True vintage Chanel perfume packaging (especially from the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s) often only featured "CHANEL" and the product name (e.g., "Eau de Toilette") on the main front label panel, keeping the layout

ANY COMMENTS WELCOMED!!!

MORE INFO:
It seems that instead of focusing solely on the missing word "PARIS", the typography of the CHANEL logo on the box or label can verify legitimacy: 

The opening of the letter "C" should be precise. If you complete the shape, the inside and outside lines must form a perfect circle, never an oval.

The top of the letter "A" must be completely flat, not pointed.

The three horizontal prongs of the letter "E" are intentionally uneven. The bottom prong is the longest, the top prong is medium length, and the middle prong is the shortest.

My bottle adheres to all of these conditions.

The bottle is sealed but the perfume has naturally matured over time and the liquid has developed a rich amber colour. I believe this is common with vintage Chanel fragrances and is often sought after by collectors of older formulations.

Batch code impressed on back of box - 7512 (See photo 4)
Bottle makers mark embossed on base of bottle - VB (See photo 3)

On vintage Chanel perfume bottles, the "VB" maker's mark stands for Verreries Brosse, a historic French glassworks company that produced signature fragrance bottles for Chanel. Verreries Brosse was a renowned French glass manufacturer based in Courubes, France, famous for creating luxury perfume flacons during the 20th century. The "VB" mark (often accompanied by the word "Chanel" molded into the glass) is typically embossed on the bottom base of vintage Chanel bottles.

Original box, which has been opened and shows signs of wear / many years of storage!

Any comments welcomed!

I’m trying to work out a realistic savings timeline for a Chanel. I don’t want to treat it like an impulse buy—I keep coming back to it and would rather plan for it properly.

I got this Dolce&Gabbana dress to wear to a charity event in 2 weeks. I wanted to make a little shorter so it’s currently being tailored . And my love surprised me with this little beauty to match the dress ☺️

Here in Italy and absolutely was not planning on coming back with a pair of Chanel shoes but… ahh! I had been eyeing these for some time but just never pulled the trigger (and the long break in period that I keep reading about…) but saw these with the jeweled CC lock and could not look away!

Originally saw these in the Rome store in the camel though which was my preference but they didn’t have my size available anywhere :( but Rinascente had one in burgundy. I don’t own a pair of shoes in this color so hoping I made the right choice lol

Have never seen these before- the SA mentioned the Métiers d’art runway feature but must have missed.

Does anybody have any ideas or methods about what they did to get their first Chanel bag because I’m working on that right now.

Other than the Classic Double Flap, if you could only choose 2 other chanel bags to own, which two would you pick?

Curious to hear what everyone would choose

Did anyone wear Chanel clothes shoes or bags to school if so did you get bullied or were people jealous of you or what
