Well said. Love your review. You wont believe but this bag has been on my mind for years and i bought it last month from the store.. when the sa took my card i was just stunned. The price can cause a heart attack😅 But after buying it i told myself at least now its in my collection.❤i love.her and she is small but the medium is almost close to 15k also i prefer the small when i shoulder sling it as it fits my frame more. Lets just enjoy her fully!
Congrats! I love the shoulder slung look of the small on my frame too. I felt like the medium looked liked a shoe box lid on my frame when shoulder slung 😂
It’s difficult to justify the price when the bag can only hold so few items 😔 My medium classic flap actually holds a good amount of items, more than my everyday essentials. I think if you are going to fork out over $10K might as well add a few more hundred $ and get the medium size. The medium doesn’t look that much bigger than the small, but that extra inch of space means you can fit more small items. I’m glad I bit the bullet and bought my MCF last year, even though it’s preloved and many years old now, and cost over AUD8k it is in immaculate condition and I don’t have any regrets. I know I’ll always pine for it if I don’t have it. Owning it has satisfied my craving and it will never leave my collection! 🥰 I don’t wear it very often it’s because it’s a special item to me and I don’t want to put unnecessary wear and tear on it by over-using. I’m going to use it until I’m an old granny, then hand it down to my daughter. I have the caviar with silver hardware and this suits my casual style because it doesn’t look out of place when I wear it on errands, and also look chic and elegant I when dress up and wear it out to fancier occasions. I felt sick in stomach paying so much money for a bag but that feeling dissipates over time 😆 I absolutely love my MCF, and have no regret with my decision to finally get it 💕🥰
@@MegaTinni have you tried putting your glasses in a soft cloth case? I can easily fit a pair of slim sunglasses in soft cloth case with my iPhone XR (with thick case) easily with a large bunch of keys & small pack of tissues & lipstick & small coin holder, and there would still be a bit of space left. You can buy a pack of three soft cloth glasses case (the fabric ones with draw string) for about $15 from Amazon.
Watching a year after your upload. Now that we are “in the future,” I am sure you are thrilled you got your bag before the steepest price increases EVER. I think you made a great choice getting a black bag with GHW in small, because it can be both a daytime or evening bag. Two weeks ago, I paid the insane new price for a beige medium classic flap with SHW in caviar. I hope it will appreciate in value, but I am okay if it does not, because I will never sell this bag! I chose medium, because it is daytime use, and SHW because my lifestyle is casual here in Hawaii. Not worried about color transfer because I wear light colors here. We all think through these purchases very carefully, which is part of the fun!
I either carry a lot and use a tote or very minimal and take either a small or micro bag, depending how minimal. No regrets on my small classic flap! 😍
I love your bag Kat! I have silver caviar M/L and I love mine. I could’ve gone with the small though. Chanel classic flap is gorgeous and I feel lucky to have purchased it 6 years ago (even then the price was outrageous!).
Kat, you took all the words out of my mouth. I took my small out last night and whispered to myself "I can't believe how much this bag costs". Then I told my husband and he said yea, you could almost buy a rolex with that. Then we talked about how hard it is to get a rolex now too. HAHA.
I'm glad you got yours! For me I think Chanel CF is the holy grail bag. I've got mine preloved in SHW, ML and don't for one minute regret it! It is a versatile bag that can elevate an outfit instantly, whether dressed up or down. That's how versatile it is.
Such a gorgeous bag! I love the shiny puffy black caviar with the gold hardware. If you could get a second classic flap, what color would you get? I thought I wanted a white but I am scared of it getting it dirty and showing wear quickly. Do you think beige Clair is a good option since that is their classic color?
@@KatL Yeah, I think beige Clair definitely would be a good safe choice as a forever bag. I heard that black and beige Clair also has better leather quality compared to seasonal colors because they are in the continuous collection. Thanks for replying! ❤️
Thank you for your detailed review. I am so grateful to get this bag recently with the help of someone. I had tried this bag a few years back and didn't pull the trigger. However, after watching reviews from UA-cam, this is one of the bags I wanted to add to my collection. It cost me $12k, and it is still worth getting it as it is timeless pieces that I can pass it to my daughter. I look forward to more bags review from your channel.
I’m glad you got this bag Kat. Despite it’s few cons, I t’s still such a classic piece. You can definitely pull off the crossbody look because of your slim build. As time goes on, you will learn how to adapt to the smaller capacity. Enjoy it, it looks good on you. 💗
A new subbie here. Loved this vid! I totally agreed with all the points you made around the pros and cons of this bag. I had once owned this bag but sold it last year. I did make a good profit on it but sometimes I miss it. lol
Your bag looks so beautiful - puffy & sparkly I have one and bought ard 6 yrs ago - ard half the recent price. I don't use it much since it doesn't fit my lifestyle recently, and was thinking abt selling I can't believe people are still queuing to get this bag OMG! I don't regret buying it though. I'm glad you enjoy it
I remember the medium classic flap was offered to me by an SA few yrs ago, but at the time, I thought it was too expensive and it was just a bit over $5k. Even then it was hard to justify shelling out that amount of money (plus tax) for a bag that I might not use all the time since it's more like a formal bag. Now that the price doubled, I think it's extremely hard to justify that it's worth 5 digits. Even their seasonal bags or mini bags are nearly $5k now. Most people's salary do not increase like the amount these bags increase unfortunately.
I can only say it’s worth it if it’s something you’ve been lusting on for a long time. I’ve wanted one since 2019. Instead saved for a home. Moved on to other bags as I wasn’t sure even though I kept lusting. Finally got it last yr in October. I told myself either now or never. So go for it now! As I’m sure by the next increase I will for sure be priced out.
@@KatL 😮… air-hug! Im at the edge of deciding if I should let go of my medium since I got a new small :/ After using small, do you prefer small over medium?
That was a very good review Kat. I love the small and I regret not getting it in 2019 when i got my Metier D’Art clutch. Now i am priced out. I am going to Japan next year and will try the resale shops for one then but that may be too much also.
Hi Kat! I just recently visited my Chanel SA and purchased your exact bag. I definitely think it’s worth it for me since it will be a forever bag. Even though it is expensive think if we wait to purchase it 5 years from now the prices will be much higher. I think with Chanel no matter when you buy it, it’s still will be cheaper by the next price increase. If you love it, it’s better to buy it sooner then later. Even though we bought it “later” (at this point) 5-10 years from now we will be saying glad we bought it “sooner” ( hope that makes sense) I will dm you a picture on insta and show you how I pack it, because I seem to fit more. Great video 🥰
Love this review. Thanks for keeping it real! It’s good to hear that even bag collectors as yourself find it a bit hard to justify the price for the design and functionality of the bag, and feel kind of guilty for the purchase (even if you could afford the bag). It’s definitely a status piece at this point in time, so if you’re really a fan of the bag, get it. Otherwise, I think you’ll end up just selling it again. No problem in that but there might be other pieces you will end up keeping and using through time 💜 New follower 👋🏼😊
Thank you for watching. Yes, this bag is atrociously expensive now and it does make my stomach cringe when I think about how much cheaper it use to be 😞
Congrats on the small classic! I love how full the puffs on your handbag look. Great review and thanks for sharing your honest opinion. I don't own any Chanel classic flap because I when I had tried the medium and small a few years ago, I found the double flap got in my way getting in and out of the bag and I couldn't wear it comfortably crossbody although I am petite. But, I do love the look of classic flaps... they are beautiful bags. The mini rectangle is on my wishlist. I would love to hear your comparison of the small classic vs the mini rectangle to get your perspective when you do your full review if possible please. Thanks for sharing ❤️
I have just sold my medium CF in black with silver hardware. Difficult decision for me but I haven’t used it for 2 years now and I have completely gone off the look if I am honest. Had it for 7 years and doubled my money on it, so what you say is quite accurate Kat. You do have to keep it a long time to see the returns. I don’t mind paying those kind of prices if the bag makes you feel special. That’s why I only buy H now 🤷♀️
my medium CF (caviar, GHW) is almost 13 years old (wah my bag is a teenager haha) and it hardly shows its age, despite me using it as my work bag for a good number of years, and you know I don't baby my bags at all. so even though the price of the CF is many many times what I paid for it back in the day, I would say this classic of classics is still worth it. Yes, a medium CF is now the price of a b25 (lordy, can't believe this day has come haha), but we all know the real price of a birkin is bag + prespend. Ask me again when the CF is $20k haha. might have a harder time coming to that conclusion.
The biggest issue for me is that one can’t save fast enough before the next increase! I feel like Chanel bags are like chasing the unicorn. They don’t give a customer enough time to save, thus it’s always out of reach.
Sold my small red double flap xD such a Tetris bag and so frustrating to use with the double flap 😅 I love yours tho! Those quilts are so puffy and shiny and perfect omg 😍
That Chanel SCF is absolutely stunning 🤩 🤩 🤩 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼. The only constraint for me, is its astronomical price 💸💸💸💸. Thanks 🙏🏻 for sharing this beauty with us 💖💖💖❤️❤️❤️💜💜💜💕💕💕🌸🌸🌸💋
I only really want two bags from Chanel and this is one of them. I’d wear it as an occasion bag mainly and so I’d like to keep for 20-30 yrs or so, with the proper care, but is this really feasible? That’s a long time for a bag and the cost per wear would still be in the hundreds. 😆 I genuinely don’t know if I’ll ever buy it because I am older and my sense and sensibilities kick in. I have spent hundreds of thousands on cars over the years which seemed acceptable but really, they aren’t. Damn you Chanel! Small bags are the best as you get older and the joints start to ache, haha.
Thanks Kat for sharing!❤️ I am insanely thinking to get for this size.😅 I have my jumbo and reissue in 225.. I'm kinda ambivalent!!!😢Would I get at this size?🤔
Love the vid. The crossbody mod shot actually doesn’t look bad at all! I think when it sits higher, it’s more fashionable. It’s in between a fanny pack and a traditional crossbody. That’s more trendy!
A question. Do u think that Chanel quality or the material and what they spend to make this bag.cost this amount of money we pay. I swar that they spend around less less than it half price to make. We all pay for the name of Chanel about half price for the name
I love your review and how u don’t want to advocate that the price is justifiable in this expensive singapore. I bought my very first chanel last year in TAKA which cost me $15760 in 2023August. Its been my weekly bag to work, sometimes i use it on weekends family outings. However now, i felt like i need a smaller bag for dinner events. I been toying the idea to buy the small classic flap or the lady dior. It’s so hard to make a decision! I feel like this small flap i still can use on casual days while the lady dior is too dressy to bring on casual errand days as a mummy. Please advise 🙏
I think flap bag looks so so similar like classic. I wud definitely purchase it rather than classic the price is ridiculous. Atleast the flap is also long lasting from far u can’t even make out it’s not classic
Carry 2 bags, Kat. That's what i do if i definitely want to carry a small/tiny bag. Even wearing your micro fendi on top will give you just that extra carrying capacity. 💕💕💕
This is actually how most people in japan do it - the ladies always carry more than 1 bag 😂 i’m not japanese and i used to find it hilarious seeing people with 2 sometimes 3 bags on them but now i’m also doing it when carrying a small pretty bag (i carry another simple tote to keep bigger items or when going shopping). The japanese i think were thought to categorize and organize stuff into different compartments (=bags) when they were small (u can see school kids walking to school carrying 2-3 bags that carry different stuff), it probably becomes just a natural thing to do.
The guilty is haunted me currently ..coz i just bought one😅😅..and this video make me less guilty..😅😃😅😃😅😅🤣🤣…btw i bought reissue2.55 small size (225)… right now ..i cant think anymore ..😅😅
The Chanel classic bag is worth buying. But it is not worth it to buy brand new with their ridiculous price now. I own multiple Chanel bags and I stopped buying them years ago as I find the price keep increasing and they just keep releasing new collection yearly with the same bag but in different colors. It's ridiculous how they price these bags that is probably worth $500 to make. I love Chanel but I will never buy them again. My love for luxury handbags has ended since I have all my dream bags now and my priorities have changed from the past 4 years. And the fear of missing out was kicked outta my door long ago. I'm confident to carry Coach handbags or dollar store hand bags now anywhere and longer embarrassed to carry cheap handbags. 😂🤣😂🤣 I stopped caring of what people are wearing or what brand of bag they carry. ♥️♥️
I have a Jumbo and a medium Double Flap, and I don’t feel embarrassed to carry cheap bags after all the functions of bags are similar but for different occasions. I won’t carry my Chanel for grocery shopping; too precious 😂
Well said. Love your review. You wont believe but this bag has been on my mind for years and i bought it last month from the store.. when the sa took my card i was just stunned. The price can cause a heart attack😅

Your granddaughter will love it 🥹🥹🥹🥹

So true. When we think back , it was so “cheap” . There is really never a good time to buy .
Great points thanks for sharing ☺️. For me, I would consider a Reissue before a Classic Flap. More understated and I believe wears better cross body.
Gorgeous bag! Especially love that puffiness. 💕
Yea!!!!
I am interested in going into Hermes bag other than BKC. Would you pls hold topic on which of them tend to hold resale value better than others.
Thank you for the topic suggestion! Next time luxe chit chat!

Small! 😍
Love your lipstick! Is it Hermes?
Good review, I wonder why don’t you want to make use of the pockets? They look so useful and well designed.
Yes, it’s from Hermes ! Orange brûlée. I do use the pocket for cards but not the middle one which I think it’s for lipsticks 😅
Hi does caviar do well in humid and hot weather?
so far ok, but if not cared for, can be sticky
That was a very good review Kat. I love the small and I regret not getting it in 2019 when i got my Metier D’Art clutch. Now i am priced out. I am going to Japan next year and will try the resale shops for one then but that may be too much also.

Thank you!
I think flap bag looks so so similar like classic.
I wud definitely purchase it rather than classic the price is ridiculous. Atleast the flap is also long lasting from far u can’t even make out it’s not classic
You mean the mini flap right? If yes, I do agree n it is much cheaper
It is a gorgeous bag, but I would baulk at the price! Thank you for the video. Have an amazing week!
Thank you! You too
Carry 2 bags, Kat. That's what i do if i definitely want to carry a small/tiny bag. Even wearing your micro fendi on top will give you just that extra carrying capacity. 💕💕💕
A thought just crossed my mind, you can wear your birkin 25 together. Super flex, babe💪💪💪
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Love the idea with the micro Fendi😍
This is actually how most people in japan do it - the ladies always carry more than 1 bag 😂 i’m not japanese and i used to find it hilarious seeing people with 2 sometimes 3 bags on them but now i’m also doing it when carrying a small pretty bag (i carry another simple tote to keep bigger items or when going shopping).
The japanese i think were thought to categorize and organize stuff into different compartments (=bags) when they were small (u can see school kids walking to school carrying 2-3 bags that carry different stuff), it probably becomes just a natural thing to do.
@@farahhana9785 i think it should take off!! Imagine all the fashion houses making money from telling us we need multiple bags🤣🤣🤣
Agree Kat I would never lambskin bag. They are pretty to look at but I don’t want to baby a bag
Lambskin is sooo beautiful but yea, I would be constantly worried too
I just use it as a fancy purse for evenings and like a mini bag
Yup, that works too!
for me, going vintage is the way to go. better price and quality! i like my small! i don't carry too much anyway so it's good for me.
Price is really much better in the vintage market
It’s a beautiful bag my lady, enjoy it. 🖤😘😘😘Sandy
Thank you!
I paid $2600 us for mine. Bought mine before the pandemic and all these crazy price increases.
Wooohooooooo
I can be your niece, I will appreciate that bag, “just joke !!!.
BTW, what yr is this bag, look very puffy and shiny. Gorgeous !!!!
Ahahah! YR2022
Chanel raised prices. I did send it to you in your ig message. You are aware of it. Geez. Crazy
Yea crazy
Personally I won't pay even at 80% of current retail for a used bag... I rather pay the current retail at boutique. Over retail?? No way.... 😅
True. It is hard to justify the price now, even as a resale
Now the price of a small CF has gone up to $12k+ le. Think you still got it a deal Kat 😊
😅😅 my wallet doesn’t agree lol but it is better than 12k 😝
It's a beautiful 🛍️ bag, that's it's only to get more expensive
The guilty is haunted me currently ..coz i just bought one😅😅..and this video make me less guilty..😅😃😅😃😅😅🤣🤣…btw i bought reissue2.55 small size (225)… right now ..i cant think anymore ..😅😅
😅😅😅👍🏼 congrats on your new bag ❤️
Great investment peice, plus you get to wear it.👍
All my emotional reasons say “Yes”.
The Chanel classic bag is worth buying. But it is not worth it to buy brand new with their ridiculous price now. I own multiple Chanel bags and I stopped buying them years ago as I find the price keep increasing and they just keep releasing new collection yearly with the same bag but in different colors. It's ridiculous how they price these bags that is probably worth $500 to make. I love Chanel but I will never buy them again. My love for luxury handbags has ended since I have all my dream bags now and my priorities have changed from the past 4 years. And the fear of missing out was kicked outta my door long ago. I'm confident to carry Coach handbags or dollar store hand bags now anywhere and longer embarrassed to carry cheap handbags. 😂🤣😂🤣 I stopped caring of what people are wearing or what brand of bag they carry. ♥️♥️
So good you got all your dream bags!!!!
I have a Jumbo and a medium Double Flap, and I don’t feel embarrassed to carry cheap bags after all the functions of bags are similar but for different occasions. I won’t carry my Chanel for grocery shopping; too precious 😂
It's a cute "nice to have" kinda bag. It definitely wouldn't fit me. The rectangualr flap is a better bet.
Yea, it’s small and need to play Tetris with the items to fit in this bag
@@KatL or a new Squid game 🤣
I love my jumbos. This size is just too small.
Yea, jumbo size is much more carefree and no need to play Tetris
🥰😘
😘😘😘
Cute but so tiny😧😧
It is so tiny!
definitely too small
Video too long.
