I have this exact bag and I love it. I haven’t had any issues with my bag. When I first saw the earlier reviews on the wear and tear I decided I was not going to buy one. When I went into the Chanel store to buy my 19 my SA told me to try it out and I really liked the look. I couldn’t get it out of my head so I decided to buy it and I’m so glad I did. I would buy another one in a different color and probably the mini. I really like the white mini but I’m a little concerned about color transfer. Great video.
I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the *yutulux* leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. Thank you for your recommendations.
I like watching videos where I can see different knockoffs. If it looks well made, it saves time and I can reconsider if I really want to buy it *condup* , or buy the real thing. It would be great to keep watching more videos like this if you have the time.
Me, too. When I started seeing the videos pop up I started to panic. But mine is great and sounds like everyone else here who has one isn’t experiencing issues either. It’s funny because I brought it up to Andrew once and he was completely baffled about any issues. He’d never seen one come back to boutique. And I don’t think it was him trying to just BS me. He’s a very straight shooter with me.
Thank you for a great review. The mod shots are so helpful. This is so timely as it’s the next bag I’d like - in fact the only one I’m looking to buy in this low buy year!
So glad I could help. I really think it’s a fantastic bag! And based on other comments here, it sounds like no one else has had issues either. Hope you find your perfect 22!💜
@@luxuryandlifeinthemiddle I just bought a 22 this evening, small black with gold hardware. Had to share with you! Not a RUclipsr am too shy 🙈 but love your videos and the community on here! My SA also had a “so black” but I felt given the bag is casual it can afford to be elevated by the gold. But I am a bit worried it’s flashy and I’ll get mugged as it says CHANEL in big letters! And maybe I should’ve got the all black as more subtle. But I guess I can always turn it around right if I don’t feel safe? And still have the lovely gold chain.
@londonlove1166 so excited for you!! The black and gold is classic. I think you made the right choice for your first 22. And yes, if you’re somewhere where you feel uncomfortable, you can wear it flipped around. Then people will just think you’re wearing a chic garbage bag 😂🤣😂
Amazon sells an all leather dupe made my Doris&Jacky for under $100 for those who want to try before you buy. 😊 This Chanel 22 bag is gorgeous and so practical ❤
The main problem for me is that the quality is so bad nowadays. The quality is much better and the prices are much lower in *condup* small boutiques. There is just no marketing. When I was a little girl the luxury goods were much better than the cheaper brands.
Ooo I didn’t know you had this bag! Must be because it was in storage and I haven’t had chance to catch up on all your older videos since I’ve known you! This type of video is so useful! This bag has so many aspects of things I like in a bag, but I look at it and do not feel any excitement at all for it! 😮 Perhaps I need to see it properly in person and actually hold it, rather than just see it on a video or on a shelf from a distance at the boutique 🤔
Hey there, Lisa. Loving your outfit! I love the color and large buttons on the top. I’m one of the people who reacted negatively to the look of the 22 bag in the shiny calfskin leather. However, I really like your denim Chanel 22 bag and the ones in tweed. If I had the money, I would get the tweed with the camellias pattern. Great review of the bag. Would you consider doing a Comparison between the denim and this one and if you prefer one over the other? I hope you’re feeling much better.
I’d be happy to do that, Patty. I actually spoke a little about my denim one but then cut it out of the video so it was shorter. I’ll add it to my filming list!
I have the same color and size and have had it for almost a year. I love it and would like to get another one in a size small and lighter color. I don’t see any wear yet so fingers crossed it doesn’t have those issues that others have had. Thanks for the review!
@annakim5589 I’m so glad to hear from so many of you who own one and that it’s wearing well. They come out with some beautiful colors, so I’m sure you’ll find another one you love!💕
I fell in love with a tweed version of the 22 on that same size, but I really enjoy using my bags and couldn't trust myself with that material... I'm a "big bag energy" 😂 kind of gal and love the style of this one, but I'm still not sure if it would work for me. Really love it, though!
It’s a great bag, Kat. But as much as I love tweed, I’m not sure I would get this bag in it. Given that you pretty much always carry it up against your body, I’d be afraid of excessive pilling on the tweed. But like you, I’m a big bag girl at heart!❤️
I tried the shearling back in November and loved it but didn't buy it. Last week I tried the mini so black, it looks great but it's a bit too small on my frame. I tried the medium one again in black but I got the large Romy before Christmas and I can't pull the trigger now. So alas, even if I like it, I think it is not meant to be!
@@luxuryandlifeinthemiddle I absolutely do! I got a very soft organizer in apricot just to see inside a bit better 😅 the bag is soft luxurious and great with 2 small kids but also good for work, I got it after watching your review (it wasn't absolutely on my radar), so thank you ❤️
I like this design and been wanting it, and no I’m not buying I cannot afford but I see a brand that is on my price range that make this design it’s Charles and Kieth , still waiitng to get it , does anyone know a brand that makes this design here in the US ? Thanks
I wasn’t sure about the Chanel 22 when it first launched but it has def grown on me since. X
You need that mini one! It looked great in you and I think it’s pretty roomy for a mini bag!
I’m so into this bag! Shoulder slippage is a deal breaker for me, thanks for addressing that and for the great review
Glad you enjoyed it! 💜

I’m so glad yours is good, too. It’s a great bag!💜
My mom bought one KKUWAN and she loves it. It had been there for over 10 years when she went out with it.
I just wore mine today I love it. Yours is beautiful.
So glad you love yours!🥰
I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the *yutulux* leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. Thank you for your recommendations.
The variety of textures in the KKUWAN pack is impressive. From smooth leather to textured suede, there's something for everyone.
I like watching videos where I can see different knockoffs. If it looks well made, it saves time and I can reconsider if I really want to buy it *condup* , or buy the real thing. It would be great to keep watching more videos like this if you have the time.

Thanks for letting us know about the dupe! Will definitely check it out💜
En el momento en que vi el bolso *yutulu*, supe que tenía que tenerlo

Mine is the same size in a salmon pink. I love it! No problems with mine either! I love the black…..so classy!
So glad to hear that yours is problem free. Beautiful bag!

It really is a great bag, Claire. Definitely check it out in boutique. And now with the mini size, there is literally an option for everyone.

Thank you for your video❤❤I’m interested in this bag but it looks so delicate but its so cute
It’s not delicate at all in my opinion. Love mine and it’s worn incredibly well

so wonderful for you so so happy
Ty!
Such a great bag!
Totally agree!
*xbagy* I love you so much and watching your videos makes my day brighter
i tend to overfill my chanel 22 and my shoulders tend to hurt when i carry the bag more than an hour. its a cute bag and very functional though
I could definitely see how it would be easy to overfill. 💜
I tried the shearling back in November and loved it but didn't buy it. Last week I tried the mini so black, it looks great but it's a bit too small on my frame. I tried the medium one again in black but I got the large Romy before Christmas and I can't pull the trigger now. So alas, even if I like it, I think it is not meant to be!
The good news is they come out with different ones every season so eventually you’ll get one. Do you love your Romy?
@@luxuryandlifeinthemiddle I absolutely do! I got a very soft organizer in apricot just to see inside a bit better 😅 the bag is soft luxurious and great with 2 small kids but also good for work, I got it after watching your review (it wasn't absolutely on my radar), so thank you ❤️
@ilariama82 I’m so glad you love it too! I just love the slouch. Where did you get your organizer?
Great video 🖤🤍
Ty🥰
Do you have side protector inserts to protect where the chain rubs on the sides ?
No. I’ve seen they exist but I haven’t had any issues.
Do you have an issue with the snap buttons coming undone easily?
Not really. Sometimes when I’m trying to get in it while it’s still on my shoulder, one might pop, but I wouldn’t say it’s an issue
I like this design and been wanting it, and no I’m not buying I cannot afford but I see a brand that is on my price range that make this design it’s Charles and Kieth , still waiitng to get it , does anyone know a brand that makes this design here in the US ? Thanks
I don’t. But I’ll have to check out the one you mentioned.
@@luxuryandlifeinthemiddle yes it’s Charles and Kieth saw it in Bangkok it’s like $100++ and this brand has good quality too
@lovelyliz71 awesome!
Thinking of getting it in caramel medium.. but now confused with black 😂
Do t think you can go wrong either way. They’re both neutrals!
suits you perfectly
Ty!💜
