best video i've seen about the chanel bags! EDIT: Watched through the whole video and I've totally changed my mind! I was set on the small but seeing it on your frame and how it looks (I'm 167cm) I definitely think that the medium/large would look a lot better on me :) Thanks so much for putting this video up, it's been so helpful!

This is such a fantastic video and really useful. Mini bags have been such a trend but I haven't been able to wrap my head around them being practical or useful so it's amazing to see just how much you can squeeze into the Chanel rectangular mini flap. I will definitely put it on my list of '2019' bags. Thanks!

Thanks Mel. So informative. I've been to the boutiques but they don't always have them all to compare at once. I'm also a Melbourne girl. Love your silver mini rectangular but I think I may be a little late to secure one. I think my first purchase will definitely be a mini rectangular as I love the option of cross body and at 5'7" I think this is my best option. This size can also be a stunning evening bag.

This was such a great video... I've learned so much, helping me to choose right. But still haven't made the decision yet... I'm going for my first Chanel bag and right now I tend to wear more cross body bags, but I do believe as I'm getting older, the M/L classic flap will be the best choice, since I can see myself still wearing this bag when I'm 40. Only decision left is caviar or lambskin.

Thank you for creating this video for us. I really found it useful and informative. Very detailed & i appreciate that. It's valuable info as I am working to build my own collection & I am fairly new to adding Chanel handbags. My very first Chanel bag purchase was couple years ago with the classic caviar woc. Love it but chain drop on that is so long. I am 5'4. So i shorten that one. I absolutely love the mini's. I have been waiting for at least a couple of years I think to get hold of a black caviar with shiny silver hw square mini, have missed due to timing. I had my heart set on the square shape as from reviews shows that the chain drop is shorter & would suit me better. Recently I couldn't pass up on a square mini in black and white caviar (monochrome look) but the chain drop on that is super long - measures at almost 67cm! Definitely have to shorten chain on that to be able to wear. From this it seems to me not only does the type of leather changes from collection to collection, the chain drop can vary as well. Have you come across this? As I thought, chain drop length would be the same. I was so surprised that a black caviar mini came up in this new autumn/winter collection, but was only available in rectangular shape in my local boutique (I'm in Europe). I was torn whether to go with rectangular mini or should I wait to get the square if one could be transferred, but in the end I decided to go with the rectangular shape. In this collection, even the interior is lined with the classic burgundy leather & the rim of the outer back pocket is in burgundy leather which shows just a peep of the burgundy - nice touch. Mel, you have a wonderful handbag collection. It is lovely and I loved hearing your recommendations. As you have a great collection - do you have a preference over the square mini or the rectangular mini? Which one do you love more?

Hi lovely, It's my absolute pleasure and I'm really glad you found it so helpful as that was the aim of this video :) Yes I have heard that the chain lengths can differ slightly on a square mini but not to the extent of your black and white one. That length seems very long! In terms of availability, yes Chanel releases the minis at different times of the year. This autumn/winter there are rectangular minis but not square and then another collection will only have square and no rectangles so if you see something you really love, def get it! I haven't seen the black mini from this collection yet but the burgundy details sounds like a great touch so I'm happy to hear you got it! There is definitely room for a square and rectangle in your collection hehe At the moment I am loving my rectangle mini more than my square but only by a little. I like where the rectangle sits on me better cross body and the fact that mine fits a touch more. Can you fit more in your square or rectangle? Thank you for all your sweet comments and I hope I answered all your questions! ❤️

Mel in Melbourne thank you for your reply. Yes! I was also in disbelief with the black white one. Had to measure it a few times. Huge difference. I've tied it with ribbon for now but definitely will check with my SA about the bag clips. The black&white square mini is calfskin,smooth leather texture compared to my caviar rectangle mini. The rectangle mini fits more than the square. I fancy adding lambskin for my next bag as I don't own any. No idea on what colour combination, type of pattern, square or rectangle. Lots options there. Haha. I'm glad I went ahead & purchased my black rectangle mini, couldn't pass up on the opportunity. My SA told me they were only sent 5. Wondering if you have any tips or experience with getting out transfer dye on patent leather? I had bought a pre loved turquoise extra mini & on back of it has some small dye marks, which was aware of but just love the colour that much to get it. Normally, is very picky, if have marks as such I avoid. It is only small & is on back of bag, everywhere else is in great condition. But just thought would try to see if could remove. Many thanks for your help.

Hey babe, great comparison 😄 my favorite is my M/L and rectangular mini. The former is great for work or days I want to look more classy and elegant while the latter is no brainer for a smart casual look. I am from Singapore and the small classic flap is extremely limited too. As you have mentioned from price point, it makes sense to get a mini or the M/L. See you again in your next video soon. 🤗🤗

Even though I have watched several videos comparing each of these size bags, I thoroughly enjoyed watching this as you are only a little bit taller than me. My first Chanel piece is a super dark navy lambskin M/L double flap bag with GHW which I bought preloved. I think I would find it very hard to buy a smaller bag now as I find it fits what I need (a card case, blood glucose monitor, keys, pen, notebook, lipstick and insulin pen). I think I would find it hard to put a full sized pen into a mini and unfortunately I need my insulin pen with me. I also have um and ah-ed about considering a jumbo, but I think it may end up looking and being a little large on me. I think the M/L is best for my lifestyle plus they do seem to have a really good seasonal color range for that size here in Australia. By the way, I really liked the pink color of your M/L bag. Keep up the great quality videos you release.

Hi Mel !! I've just subscribed to your channel and followed your IG a few months ago after I watched this vdo. Just wanna thank for your helpful information from this comparison vdo. And I also wanna share my experience on Chanel bag. Last year I bought a pre-loved medium classic flap bag. It's gorgeous and in excellent condition but I thought it's a little too big when I wear it because I'm a small person, 152 cm. tall. So I decided to sell it. After that I bought a mini rectangular because I think the price is reasonable comparing to a small flap. But I still wanted to have a small flap because the size looks so cute. Then I watched this vdo and even getting the information that a mini reg fits the same amount as a small flap, I finally bought a small flap last month when I found a good deal pre-loved one. Now I really fall in love with it 😄.

Mel, I just got a dark navy Caviar small CF at the Chanel boutique at Narita airport. The color is so beautiful and rare with champagne gold HW. My goal was to find a small black champagne gold HW CF. However, the dark blue one caught my eyes right away when the SA opens the bag closet. The small size must be more popular in Japan. I have seen a 5-6 small CF in black lambskin at vintage stores in this trip, no caviar small CF though. I couldn't help wonder if I made a right decision not to get the " classic black". What do you think?

rectangular mini is more my speed and I so want one but as you said its seasonal so it might be tough finding one when I go on vacation.

Love your recommendations! I already have a mini and I am just thinking between the small or medium and you just nail that for me! Love your thoughts!

A very informative video! Always like your comparison videos, they are so detail and always straight to the point. I got my black n gold M/L for SGD7090 in Singapore, had been looking for a pale pink with gold hardware like yours! What a nice combination. Hope i can get this combination for the mini!

I've come back to this video several times over the past few months because it's so informative :P I would love a Chanel mini one day as I adore the look of the square. Recently however, I turned my eye to the small CF - but what you say about the price point of the small in comparison to the mini and medium is quite true. I'll brood on this a little longer, since Chanel prices are pretty crazy to begin with.

Great comparison! It's a surprise for me that your Chevron Square Mini in Caviar weighs 406g! The Classic Square Iridescent Purple in Lambskin (2017 Spring/Summer 24 series) in RHW which I bought weight 412g and I am using a Salter kitchen electronic scale for weighing my bag too! (Same brand of scale but prob diff model). I have always thought Caviar will always be heavier than Lambskin in anyway, or probably because of iridescent the metallic lamskin perhaps has extra coating ay!

Thank you so much for this vid! Very helpful! I’ve always wanted the small and thought it’s the right size for me but after watching this video, I think I’m going to get the mini since it could fit the only few items I carry with me when I’m out.

Hi Mel, thank you for such a great video. I have M/L and WOC and I'm thinking to add rectangular mini (hopefully I will get the same pink colour as your M/L, love it!!!) as I tend to wear more cross body bags.

Hi Annie! :) Yes the rectangle mini is great if you want to wear it cross body more. I hope a pink comes out soon, I think that would be a hit! 💗

Hey Mel, stumbled across your videos about a week ago and have just been binge watching since! LOVVVEE that your a Melbournian youtuber - keep up the great work xoxo *Im in need of your advice* I bought my first Chanel a few days ago at the boutique, went in for a rectangular mini and came out with a seasonal bag. Loved it in store, its very classical but not a "classic bag" and im getting a little nervous about it now! Its the Chanel Label Top Handle Click bag in small size. Its black, flap, flat quilting, chanel label instead of cc, boy bag chain, re-movable top handle, similar size to mini rect, calfskin. It has all amazing features but im just a little anxious that it wont hold its value like the classics. H E L P !

Thank you, Mel, this video is super helpful! Before starting my research, I always thought I wanted a small. But after hearing your thoughts about how the same amount of things can fit in the mini, and the price difference between the two is pretty significant, I am more confident in the mini size. It was also helpful that you showed how to shorten the strap on the mini with a ribbon, that was my other concern since I am on the shorter side at 5'1 :) I've been trying to find the answer, but havent found one, what is 17C, 14S, ect. when referring to the Chanel bags?
Yay😃 Let's make a Cute Handbag for me 👜 #diycrafts #shorts
