I’ve been eyeing this bag for quite sometime. I love how it looks. But the cons have ticked all the items I don’t want of a bag. I’m torn. I don’t really baby my bags when I use them. But considering Chanel price, it should be taken extra care. Thanks for the great insight.
I’m glad to hear you found the video helpful. It’s certainly a beautiful bag but it does have its cons, as do most bags. However, yes at the price point if the cons are relevant to you and your lifestyle it may not be worth it. Definitely a lot of beautiful bags out there so I hope whatever you choose next really sings to you! Have a great day! ❤️
Great video! I do the exact same things as you to keep the shape of my 19 bag (base shaper and organizer, putting felt underneath the top handle to prevent indentation when not in use). I’ve had my bag for 2 years now and it still looks like in excellent condition. :)
Yay!! I am so happy to hear that you loved the video and that you love your bag! So awesome to hear that after two years that she’s still in amazing condition! Appreciate you!
I’m so glad you did as well! Happy to meet you here! At first I didn’t care for the 22. It’s definitely one I admire more now. Ask yourself which goes more with what’s in your wardrobe now and/or what’s missing from your collection, do you need structure and can you see yourself carrying the bag for years to come. Hope this helps and let us know which one you land on! 🖤
I really love *preluxz* bags. The fabric is very good. The golden embellishments add a touch of beauty. When I went to the church, I received some praise.
Hi Heather, loved your detailed reviews of Chanel 19 mentioning pros and cons, fell out of love with this bag a while ago but your review kinda brought it to back to my radar :)
Hi! Congrats on your new bag! It’s definitely not the same as the shiny gold on the classic flap. Softer and more muted for sure. I don’t want to say rustic as I think antique hah! If you’re on IG, send me a DM and I will gladly send you a pic of mine! Hope that helps!
Hi, I am thinking about Chanel 19 , since it looks edgy and more modern and versatile than the classic flap 11.12, but I have doubt about the chain strap. What would you recommend?
My SA recommended that I lay my chanel 19 on "it's back" to keep its shape best. I do notice it left a little bit of a crease above the back pocket. I guess better than chain marks? I do wish there was a better way to store it. I got both inserts, too! Something that bugged me was the welding of the chains, they weren't all on the same side, so imo it looks messy. But that seems to be the standard for luxury nowadays.
@@momosan0404 it’s a small but definitely more like a medium size. I’m most likely selling mine. Not because I don’t love her because I do. Just doesn’t work the best for my lifestyle.
I love the design of my Chanel 19 bag in lambskin.However, the wear and tearon this bag is outrageous. I already needed to change the metal parts as the gold color was almost gone. The corners are doen and it is starting already on other parts on the bag I use this bag very carefully with an insert and use leather conditioner that a regular basis, but I am afraid tot does not help very much,. My Chanel Boy bag in caviar leather, on the contrary, is an absolute dream as it is toally carefree!
@@HeatherLingerfelt I bought the Chanel 19 2 years ago, but have used it 10 to max 15 times. The Boy bag is older and I have been wearing it almost every single day. The difference is that the Boy bag still looks as new and the 19 koks totally worn as Chanel does not treat leather parts. The spa exists only for classic flaps and recently for the Boy bag. They ‘s better introduce the spa for the 19.
@@christelpeeters8767 that’s so sad! I’m very sorry to hear it. But, you’ve helped to confirm some things I’ve been thinking about when it comes to this bag. I’ve carried a caviar pouch a few times recently while on vacation and didn’t worry over it once! You’ve been most helpful to myself and others! Thanks so very much!!
Hi there! It can be. I personally don’t over stuff so it’s not too bad. As a crossbody it’s definitely easier but if you were to carry primarily by the top handle it could be an issue. The plus side is that the lambskin leather is very light. Hope this helps!!
The tackiness you mentioned is normal with all Chanel chain straps and it's disgusting, A lot of people have complained about it Chanel would not change because people keep buying their products no matter how poor the quality is.
Definitely wasn’t something that got my attention until after I purchased the bag. Still beautiful but feel it could have been made better. Thank you so much for watching and providing your insight! Have a great evening!
Hi Maryama! Definitely has some in my opinion for my lifestyle and preferences. However, my cons might not be the same for everyone. My goal is to try and point out my observations, experiences but for someone to always decide on what’s best for them! I sincerely appreciate you watching and commenting! Have a great weekend!
Love Mirbag the way you show it! You really focus on showing off the bag. I don't think any other UA-camr can show off bags in as much detail as you.

Hi Candy! Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts! I’m glad you enjoyed it! I can understand falling out of love with a bag for sure!
This is by far my favorite handbag ❤
@@bexraphaela good to know!! Thank you for sharing! ❤️
Just got this bag and love it! Quick question- is the top handle of yours like an aged gold/rustic?

Thank you for sharing, I'm thinking of purchasing 19. What size is your bag?

@@HeatherLingerfeltwhere are you selling it?
How old is yours and how is the wear on corners
Hi there! Purchased in late summer of 23. No wear on corners but I am careful not to sit it down on anything that could damage it.
It’s the same way in classic flaps as well.. don’t worry it will not curl up!
Whew so good to know!! Appreciate you watching and sharing your insight! Have a great evening!
Hi! Where can I purchase the inserts? Your video is so helpful!
Hi there! The organizer is from zoomoni and they are great! I did the thinner one for this bag. I will check on the base shaper!
Thank you! Would love to order the base shaper as well
Have you tried the base shaper from zoomoni?

I truly appreciate you sharing this! It’s a shame to hear for sure. May I ask how long you’ve had yours and how often you’ve carried it?

Ok you bought July 23?

Could you please link the base shaper store? Thank you!

Is it heavy to carry? Due to the large chain..

Does this fit a 13 inch MacBook Pro ?
I wouldn’t utilize this bag for a MacBook. It’s definitely not built for that.
