I have a love😍 hate🤬 relationship with my Coco handle mini. Mainly because the capacity is so small that it won't even fit an 8oz mini water bottle. It looks so nice though so I guess I'm just going to have to salivate and drink my own spit if I get thirsty while carrying this cutie!! 😂🤣

Are you guys team Coco Handle or team Classic Mini? Why? Let me know in the comment section below. Personally I sold my Coco Handle. I'm on team Classic Mini for sure! :P

[@keeya_ks]

Trang I’m team mini 👍🏼

[@trang8735]

You can't go wrong with the Classic Mini. I should've bought it in black before the price increase. 😂

[@leann8205]

So glad I didn’t purchase a coco handle . Instead I got a black mini and love it so much

[@trang8735]

@@leann8205 So glad that you are enjoying your mini Lien. The mini is so versatile. It's one of my main staple pieces, lightweight and functional. :)

[@Skylife335]

Love the Coco super cute. Mine is leather lined and only carry essentials so it’s perfect x

[@sococo1464]

Thank you SOOO much for this honest video. I tried the coco handle in the store twice. I had difficulty even fitting my mini pochette inside. I said to the SA that I think my rectangular mini fits more. However, so many YT videos talk about how spacious it is for its size that I assumed that I must be missing something. I think most people suffer from a confirmation bias. So they tend to minimize the negative aspects of the things they own especially when they spent so much money on them. That white mini is gorgeous!!!

[@trang8735]

That's so true. We tend to justify our decisions even when they suck. Hahaha. I pasted by 30 days return policy so I can only exchange the bag, but I can't return it. I looked over the Chanel website and to be honest, they've had so much price increases that I can't trade in the bag for anything comparable. Even their fabric bags are getting so high in price. 😭

@@MiSSPiNk747 Great minds think alike hon! 😉

[@mrsmtstmichel]

Thank you for saving me from buying this bag. I really love the look of this bag but if it’s not practical then it defeats the purpose of having a bag! I am reminded as to the exact reason why I sold another small bag of mine that had the middle divider which I hated.

[@ThaiNguyen-lc2km]

I read few negative comments down there and amazingly you was still very calm and replied back, wow, I give you a credit for that. About the bag, I love the look but truly if it is not very functional then I might think twice about getting it, thanks Trang

[@trang8735]

No problem Thai! Buy what makes your heart sing and don't be afraid to let it go when it doesn't. 😊

[@wondernessful]

Love the review! Thank you! I’ve been debating on a mini or small for the coco handle.

[@trang8735]

Thank you dear! The mini looks cute, but the small is practical. Tough choice to make. 😋

[@honeyyeyes]

thanks for the review!! i was looking into getting the coco handle but i've changed my mind now lol you saved me a lot of money

[@trang8735]

I think it would be acceptable if they didn't have so many price increase on this bag. For $4k, it's fabric lined. That's so greedy of Chanel. 😤

[@shirleywong4684]

Thanks for the review! Been debating about this bag and you have helped me decide against it. 😘

[@trang8735]

No problem. It's such a popular bag and hard color combo to come by so I was hesitant to let it go. I kept deliberating but finally parted with it to get another less popular Chanel that I used more often.

[@fabulousirene]

Both Chanel bags are so beautiful. Love both of them. Great review. I have coco handle mini too but honestly if I have choice, I will pick up big size which will be more practical. New subbie. Thank You so much for sharing darling and have a great evening darling ❤️

[@trang8735]

I love the size of the mini. It really could fit alot IF it didn't have that annoying center divider. A part of me want to cut it out. I had to do that to one of my other mini bag (non-designer) then it could contain alot more and I loved it. But I'm scared to cut into such an expensive bag. 😭

[@angeleyn]

Thanks for your honest updates. I actually have the mini coco handle and feel like it holds everything I need: phone, wallet, lip balm, keys, glasses!

[@trang8735]

That's awesome. Thanks for watching. 😍😍

[@lovethememory]

Thank you so much for the video. It’s very informative. Was thinking to get a mini coco handle as it’s cheaper than classic but if it can’t carry much, I will going back to wait for mini classic flap with handle

[@trang8735]

The chanel prices are so high now that I would hold off until you can get exactly what you want.

[@OutfitsFromMyCloset]

Glad you did this comparison video! I wish I saw it sooner! I just purchased the mini coco handle (same as you w/o trying or seeing it in person)... looks like I’m going to have to exchange it for a SCF. Btw, your reviews are awesome n’ funny❣️

Oh honey, thank you so much for commenting. I make these videos to share my joy of handbags and find fellow bag lovers to talk to. Glad I found you guys!! 😍😍

[@kctn]

Just received the CH in chevron beige. I was laughing so hard because you can’t fit much inside the bag! Torn bcuz it’s cute! I noticed the price went up $700! It started at 3g. It might be another classic added to the Chanel collection!? Chanel advisor said it’s a good purchase. I have less than 30 days to return it. 😬

[@kklvoescc]

Thanks for the candid review. But you are right...it is so cute! I guess the looks will have to make up for the lack of functionality. It really looks amazing on you! Just salivate and drink your own saliva! I died reading that! 🤣🤣🤣 I have been looking at the coco handle but just unboxed a lady dior and it is beautiful and functional and I think I like it more than the coco handle. You should check it out! ❤️❤️❤️

[@ReneeSLiu]

Hi Trang, I just found your channel and subscribed! I like your honest review. I have the coco handle in small size but I still feel like it can't fit as much as I think it could, because of the way it is divided inside. Thanks for sharing, thumbs up to this video:)

[@trang8735]

Thanks for the comment! Good thing that you got the small. That's a much more practical size. 😍

[@ReneeSLiu]

@@trang8735 Yes, but I still prefer my medium classic flap lol because like you said, I can put things straight into the bag, whereas the coco handle is a trapezoid shape...:) btw I also have a KZbin channel where I talk about luxury and fashion! I would love to support each other :)

I still don't know what to do with that bag. It still has tags on it. Maybe I keep it to use as evening clutch. :/ Have you heard of the Chanel Kelly Medium? Similar look but stores so much more. Also your phone can fit into the back pocket. I love it so much, I might buy another in gold hardware if I can find an excellent condition one under $4k. 😂🤣 kzbin.info/www/bejne/i56aoKaQfL2ZopI

Have you consider to change a longer strap to do a cross body with the chanel coco handle.

👛 CHANEL white Flap...😍

[@trang8735]

I got so lucky with the white flap. It was $3600, but the girl who bought it changed her mind due to the light color so she sold it to me brand new with plastic still on the hardware for $2700. I was like, GIRL take my money!! 😂🤣

The new coco handle in the UK usually come leather lined x

[@trang8735]

When they originally came out, the shoulder straps were not removable, but the bag was leather lined. The later version that I have has a removable shoulder strap but it's fabric lined. A $4K bag lined in fabric. What a rip off. 😒

I hope you find another black rectangular mini and ditch this one. Don't hang on just cos it's pretty. Come on!

[@trang8735]

I'm thinking about cutting the center divider out of this bag to make it more spacious. But once I alter this bag, can't ever resale it and chanel might not take it in for repairs either. 😶 You think I should do it?

[@ditsygirl5409]

@@trang8735 lol... those strangers who saw what you did to your bag will think it's a fake... and it's not cheap... get the small version instead if you like the design and try it out. Anyway many people didn't like this coco handle as they feel the workmanship is not as good as the usual classic flap so many are still on the fence about it.

[@km_au9515]

Coco handle costs slightly more than the mini

[@trang8735]

It used to be only $2900 when it debuted. I got mine for $3700, but this newest season they increased it again to $3800. That's just crazy. Chanel's getting way to greedy for my taste.
