Picked this up at Nordstrom Rack today for $757 with taxes included. The color is charcoal.
It’s pretty. I may keep, I may return.
Keep cause I don’t have this brand at all, but may return since I own 3 Speedys.
And like 7 Coach Rowans. (I went down a rabbit hole a while back).
Anyone have this bag? Thoughts?
If you purchase say a fragrance from an SA and then you later return it, does that SA know it’s you who made their credit go down?
I’m wondering this because if an item doesn’t work out, will they know you returned it when they look at their sales?
Sometimes if an item doesn’t work out I end up keeping the item I don’t need just because I’m nervous it will upset the sales associate who helped me.
I’m still relatively new to shopping at the Chanel boutique and I’m trying to make a smart choice, but I’m stuck because I honestly love all three pieces.
I’m deciding between:
For context, I currently own a Jumbo Double Flap, Mini 31, Turnlock WOC, and a Medium two-five hobo in black.
I already have a few nice belts from other brands, so the Chanel belt would be beautiful and useful, but not necessarily filling a huge gap. The earrings feel fun and wearable, and I love that they’re a statement accessory. The brooch feels very classic Chanel to me — elegant, polished, and a little more unique since I don’t see as many people wearing brooches casually.
I can see myself wearing the brooch mostly on blazers and coats, maybe sweaters too, though I’m a little unsure about pinning it on knits. The belt would probably get the most everyday use, but the brooch feels like the most special piece.
Which would you choose and why? For those of you who own Chanel belts, earrings, or brooches, which do you reach for most? Do brooches end up being worth it, or do they sit unused?
Would love honest opinions — especially from anyone who started with bags and then moved into Chanel accessories.
