BEST & WORST CHANEL CARD HOLDERS | Flat vs. Flap vs. Zipped Card Holder Review & Comparison

[@LizzyS57]

Super helpful comparison! Was just considering getting myself my first Chanel cardholder, so this was perfect timing ☺️

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Glad you liked the video Elizabeth! 💖

[@joyvillavicencio3501]

Thanks for comparing these Carol! This was really helpful! Your slg collection is so pretty to look at 😍The card holder is my favorite to carry around in my mini bags 💓

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Haha yeah they’re all cotton candy colored 😆

[@joyvillavicencio3501]

@@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC they are perfect for the upcoming Spring 🥰

[@lolly2299]

Lovely video. For as long as I’ve been buying Chanel here in the UK, the zippy one is officially a coin purse rather than a card holder. That would explain why it is designed as such although ppl tend to use it as a versatile piece. Hope it helps x

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Yes you’re right. It does work better for coins rather than cards.

[@sharilaa]

Love your card holder 19 light blue and the pink card holder flap. Omg the both colors so stunning. I already have a card holder croc gold color. I want add on another one maybe flap card holder or zippy coin purse. Both a gorgeous.

[@yamrockz]

this came at the perfect time! I'm planning on purchasing my first cardholder and really enjoyed your review.

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Yay I’m excited for you! 🤗 Did you decide on one yet?

[@yamrockz]

@@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC yes your video totally swayed me towards the flat cardholder ❤️

[@stylemom4405]

Thanks for the comparison. Very helpful. I like the pink card case with the button flap. I have something similar in YSL. I also like the flat baby blu card case. Those work great when you have a mini bag.

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Glad you liked the comparison! 😊 The flat card holder is a must for mini bags. Everything else takes up too much space in my opinion.

[@mybeautymusingsdotcom]

Thanks for the in depth review and listing the pros and cons! I initially wanted the zipped card holder but I'll pass on that now.

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

So happy you found it helpful Regina! 🤗 Are you thinking of getting a different card holder instead?

[@mybeautymusingsdotcom]

@@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC probably will consider a boy flap card holder instead! :)

[@gloriachan1333]

This is a great review. I was deciding between the flap cardholder and flat cardholder. I think I'm leaning more towards the flat version. Thanks!

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Glad you enjoyed the video Gloria! 💖🤗 Do you have a color in mind for the card holder?

[@rojeans7469]

omg carol thank you so much for this vid!!! i was debating between flat and flap card holder!!! this was v helpful

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Glad you found it helpful! 😊 Did you decide between the two card holders?

[@debbieh9009]

Thank you for this great review! I want to get the flap card holder in caviar! Do you think a standard car key fob can fit inside and I can just put 3 cards inside the front pocket and maybe 1 on the outside slip pocket? Thank you

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Just tested it out and yes it fits.

[@debbieh9009]

@@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC yay! Thank you so much for checking! I really appreciate it! Happy New Year to you and your family 🥰

[@galexynotprovided9945]

They are all so beautiful. I don't have any luxury brand card holders. And I try to buy bags that have a zipper so I can put my cards, and cash (if I ever even bring any). I usually use the card holder, with a zipper on the top, for my keys.

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Yeah I hardly carry cash nowadays. I have coins sometimes though because certain parking meters still only take coins. Putting cards in a zipped pocket inside a bag is probably a better use of space (especially in mini bags) but I don’t know why I just can’t get used to that.

[@brookesteele2629]

Thanks for the in depth review! And I just love your bouquet and vase - can you please share where you got them!?

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

The vase is from Anthropologie but unfortunately it’s sold out. Here’s the link to the faux peonies: rstyle.me/cz-n/ga4aazcrnw7

[@emy0514]

Hi I’m very late to your video. It was very helpful. Do you have any thoughts on the Chanel zip card holder that has the 4 card slots on the outside? I am very interested in those but haven’t pulled the trigger. Thank you!

[@michelewan5844]

Hi ! Can you fit a dollar bill (folded) into the zipped coin case or the snap closure one? Thanks !

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Yes you can.

[@carol8709]

My fav card holder was always the flat style until last year and I bought the recto verso....and ever since I haven't swapped out of it! I like that it has a lot more pockets/space and I attach my car fob to it. But other than that one....my flat chanel card holders are really the nicest and favs! Looking at your reissue mini is making me want to consider that bag!

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

Definitely highly recommend the mini reissue…I have 4 of them now 😆

[@ELENA81096]

They are all Stunning, i own 3 of them ,all im black ,i don t have a fav bcuz i love chanel slg 😊❤❤

[@thespeechsuccess]

Is your 19 style pink or Purple? I can't tell! It's so cute.

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

It’s light pink but with a hint of lilac 😄

[@jrob123]

Hi, are you having any issues with the leather wearing off on the corners of the card holder?

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

I’ve had it happen on an older card holder of mine. I think it’s part of normal wear and tear unless it happens soon after purchase.

[@lisaann5172]

Great comparison! So helpful.

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

So happy you found it helpful Lisa! 💕🤗

[@yobunny1]

Where can I get the light blue flat holder

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

This specific one most likely won’t be available at the boutique anymore but Chanel does release light blues once in a while mostly for the spring/summer collections. Or you can try to find it preloved - it’s from the 22P collection. Hope that helps!

[@floorvanb]

Great review 👍🏻

[@JZ223]

How many cards can u put in each of these card holders?

[@offickdkdkkdkdkdkek]

is the baby blue cardholder sold out? 😭 I want that one so bad

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

The flat one or zipped one?

[@offickdkdkkdkdkdkek]

@@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC the flat one

[@TheMarckell]

the pink one the flap card holder is it lambskin?

[@CAROLCHANNELINGCHIC]

It’s caviar/grained calfskin.

American Express Platinum cards don’t leave lines

[@vasilisapliadaite1880]

For me personally more comfortable zipped coin purse than snap purse:)

[@wennyhoang3009]

thank you ❤
