Chanel Unboxing: Houndstooth Tweed Rectangular Mini + Chanel Pearl Mini RANT + “REVIEW” + Lookbook

*at 2:32 I said “May 2020” instead of “May 2019” whoops!
Finally uploaded this video!
I hope you guys are proud of my progress with editing - I'm learning so many new tips and tricks each and every day!
In this video, I reveal my pre-quarantine Chanel purchase. Sadly, it has not seen the light of day. But, I've put a few looks together for whenever I get to debut this beautiful and special piece.
I've also inserted original unboxing footage.
I hope you enjoy this video. I had so much fun putting it together and dressing up!
Please consider subscribing if you like this type of content. I really look forward to your feedback! Enjoy!
I forgot to give an honourable mention to The Geek is Chic here on KZbin. She also purchased this bag shortly after I did - she has very refined and discerning taste!

Honestly, the hounds tooth is so much cuter than the pearl one anyway!

[@therealshakeen]

Better structure too! And made in leather!

[@MegaTinni]

Haha, your commentaries at the end cracked me up, but you should be proud girl, unapologetic.

[@therealshakeen]

lol

[@jessicasmith2837]

Love the yellow blazer with the bag!

[@therealshakeen]

Jessica Smith thank you!!! Although it’s so hot outside to wear it lol

[@doseofgeorgia]

I LOVE the houndstooth print ! Also really enjoying your videos ! Keep them coming :)

[@therealshakeen]

DoseOfGeorgia thank you! One is going live tomorrow! Stay tuned!

[@Deb-3082]

Ok...I thought I wanted this bag...now I know I do! I need to stop watching your videos. But, I LOVE them! Definitely Boss Lady look with the Balmain sweater and white skirt! My wish list keeps growing thanks to you ;)

[@therealshakeen]

hahaha! I'm glad I'm influencing your wish list! Thank you!

[@prim3678]

I have been thinking about getting this bag FOREVER. My SA at Holts still has it but I’m like tweed 😳🥵 how am I gonna maintain that in 10 years

[@therealshakeen]

Prim it’s definitely a hot item - you could always buy it and keep it pristine and resell it. Personal shoppers are making a profit lol. What’s the current Canadian price on it if I may ask? Because there was a price increase on minis.

[@prim3678]

therealshakeen I definitively turned it down before the price increase though, if I didn’t get it before I certainly won’t at this price. it’s $5175 now 😱😱😱😱

[@therealshakeen]

Prim omg so with tax that’s like 6k?!?! 😳 No wonder personal shoppers are charging an arm and a leg

[@trang8735]

What a beautiful bag!!! Thanks for sharing. You have great fashion sense as well. 😍😍

[@therealshakeen]

Thank you, you are too kind!

[@trang8735]

@@therealshakeen Your thumbnail captured my attention cause I also bought a new bag, but nowhere to go in this pandemic. Ironically it is also a Chanel flap bag. The vintage kelly. 😂🤣 kzbin.info/www/bejne/gnfCkoN4hKujodk

[@therealshakeen]

Trang yes I saw your video! Definitely loving the vintage Kelly! We just just show each other our bags over KZbin lol!

Love this bag, the little ribbon detail is so cute!! 😍

[@therealshakeen]

LuxHandbagLover thank you so much! I hope I’ll get to wear it out soon! I’m checking out your channel! The brooch video is so helpful!

[@TarinaMonty]

therealshakeen Yes, fingers crossed things will go back to normal soon so you can wear it out!!🤞 Ahh, thank you so much for that, lady 💖

[@annettelee5791]

Watched your whole video and enjoyed every moment of it! I absolutely lovvve your mod shots and outfits and am sold on this tweed. Subbed:)

[@therealshakeen]

Thank you! I'm glad you appreciate the mod shots! It does take a few extra steps to do when editing, but I find them to be so helpful!

[@samanthamok]

Just found your channel!! Congrats on the bag! I have to say at first I hated the bag because my trypophobia came up lol!! but then I grew to love how embellished it was. I definitely think the tweed one you got will last so much longer and it's so elegant! Love the ribbon intertwined in between 😊 new subbie, hope you'll return the love 😆

[@therealshakeen]

Samantha Mok thanks love! Checking out your videos too!

Samantha Mok thanks love!

[@Sunshine4]

You echoed my inner monologue when I saw the pearl bag. Lovely tweed bag 🤍

[@therealshakeen]

Sunshine4 Hehe! I’m glad I did! Usually with Chanel, something better always comes out. Albeit, more expensive, but something better always comes out.

[@susiedominey6272]

Pearl bag is my favourite bag, goes with everything. If I was brave enough to take it out 😂 second fav is this tweed perfect which I bought when released. So beautiful with the ribbon. One I will use heaps. Looks gorgeous on you.

[@therealshakeen]

Thank you so much! I enjoy wearing it as well!

[@bka2810]

New follower from Vancouver! Love your channel. Happy to see a punjabi girl on YT doing luxury videos!! 💃❤

[@therealshakeen]

Thanks for subbing! The support means a lot!

[@sunapr]

Beautiful bag! I was very surprised my SA showed me this bag when I went in on the first day of the reopening but I'm not really into tweed bags so I passed it.

[@therealshakeen]

Sunnyluvlux oh wow! They must have had another one come in then! Yes, tweed is not everyone’s cup of tea. Most tweed bags are not my favourite. Often their straps are tweed and get ratty looking. But this particular one was attractive to me because the price point was very good for a tweed bag (usually tweed bags are very expensive), the strap is leather, and the special print and ribbon going through.

[@TheLuxonomy]

Loved this video 🥰 beautiful outfit and bag! You styled it so well. Also, where is your white lace blouse from? So cute!

[@therealshakeen]

The Luxonomy thanks hun! The lace blouse is from Zara last summer.

[@Randalljen]

Looks gorgeous on you! I’m eyeing this one as well!

[@therealshakeen]

Jennifer Lebowitz Randall thank you!

[@stylingmila3817]

Such a cute little bag - congrats dear 🥰❤️😘

[@therealshakeen]

Thank you so much 🤗

[@ysreviews8505]

I saw the tweed mini and it is really beautiful! Now they have the 19 in the same material. I am dreaming about it! new friend here!!

[@therealshakeen]

YS Reviews Hello Friend! Yes I also saw it recently in the 19. Was tempted but I already have the same print lol!

[@ysreviews8505]

@@therealshakeen Im so tempted too

[@MegaTinni]

I never knew the body of the pearl bag was satin and not leather. I saw it on Black and Gold style's channel. It is a beautiful bag though, event though the remark about keeping its shape is valid.

[@therealshakeen]

Yes, it's a beautiful bag. The satin is why the price point was so low for that bag. It was like $4500 CAD, which is insane! Imagine if it was in leather, it would have been over $12000!

[@pyrinemaribojo5498]

If you plan on getting rid of your Chanel pearl bag. Can you please let me know. Thank you!!

[@fashionandluxury101]

Beautiful tweed Chanel bag. Congrats

[@therealshakeen]

Thank you! 🤗

[@aafrakomaa7855]

Beautiful bag, the lace top is gorgeous, May I know where you got/ purchase it from? Thanks

[@therealshakeen]

Thank you! The lace top was from Zara last year!

[@carlaelias9492]

If you ever sell that tweed please let me know!

[@therealshakeen]

Awww! I have no intention to sell right now. But I hope one comes up on the preloved market. Also, there may be an even better tweed mini coming out in future collections that will top this one! You never know!

[@TelzAll]

This is such a beautiful outfit but i have nerve damage and walk with a cane i fear I'd look like an old lady if i wear such things.

[@therealshakeen]

I'm sorry to hear you are experiencing nerve damage. I can understand what you mean. Sometimes the "old/mature lady" look is fashionable, but I get that you wouldn't want that look all the time. I'd balance it out with more edgy pieces, such as a Moto leather jacket, a tank top/body suit.

[@TelzAll]

@@therealshakeen oh it’s okay no need to be sorry but yeah I’d love to wear tweed and those kinda old lady Chanel cardigans but I worry they would age me too much especially since I have a cane. Haha…. At the moment I’m hoping to buy a Chanel boy. I think I want a grey or a pink I have to wait and see what colorist are available….

[@therealshakeen]

@@TelzAll The boy bag or even the 19, would be so nice and edgy. Go for it! What about the reissue?

[@TelzAll]

@@therealshakeen I honestly hate it haha and the chevron pattern Jesus Christ hahaha idk something about those two don’t sit right with me. There’s a red 19 that’s coming out it’s not leather it’s a fabric of some sort but am thinking about telling my SA to reserve one for me.
