This is such a helpful video. I’ve been on the fence about getting a 19. I had it in my hands at the boutique when it first came out and decided I didn’t like it, but I keep thinking I will love it because everyone else seems to. I’m on the list for the denim version but it’s so expensive especially for a non leather bag. I think this video has confirmed that I should keep my single flap jumbo which is in excellent condition and not get the 19. Thank you!
But Jess I’m 57 years old and I will tell you that everything come back around I had marc jacobs puffy bags 15 years ago and now I wish I kept them lol
I bought my black Chanel 19 lambskin in june last year and paid $5100 US dollars. I see when you hold your goatskin it winkles and I found goatskin does winkle more than lambskin. My lambskin 19 has no scratches - I go in and out the back pocket for my phone and no scratches from my nails. My cousin bought the same black 19 when I did and her son did scratched hers but it rubbed right off! I do like the seasonal bags too but Chanel seasonal bags are now over $5000.00 US too!
I have Chanel 19 in black and I think that in black it looks very dressy. I would probably not get it in pop of colors, but in black or other neutrals it is more timeless in my humble opinion.
I just sold my 19, the elusive caramel from 21P 😱 I realized I will always be a CC classic flap girl, I’d rather invest in a preloved classic flap for that price. Agree w/ you that it won’t age well..
Chanel seasonal bags used to be priced a LOT lower than classics but i think Chanel caught on to the interest in seasonal bags and they too have increased in price by a LOT.
I owned this for about 2 years and loved it but it fell off my shoulder constantly. Like you, I've gravitated towards more Hermes/"quiet luxury" pieces so I sold my 19 bag. No regrets!
Can’t believe how cheap you bought the jumbo for. And how well you were able to restore it. I used to like the 19 but now I’m losing interest in it which goes to show the nature of these trends and how they die down.
The boy bag has started to grow on me again. In theory, I should like the 19 bag as I like relaxed, luxurious, mix metal styles but the construction of the bag does bother me, and I don’t find the strap very comfortable.
The boy bag is still popular - it had a price increase last year and is going up again this month- my SA said she cant keep them in stock - I bought the caramel color last summer and the caviar on the boy is so puffy with a really nice sheen. I only buy bags I like and work for me - do not care if they are in or out of style.
I just bought the new season 19 - Chanel have made the strap shorter which is great! I saw your video on bag shapers and I’m not sure whether it’s worth getting ?…. Thanks 😍
Good one! Have you run across the weight of the different Chanel 19 sizes? Been pondering the Medium/Large or the Maxi. Heard weight is problematic for some. (Not easy to go “try on” newer Chanels! Or find weight references for some reason.)
Thx! And drat. If the smaller one feels heavy for a Chanel… argh. To be fair the main “problem” is when I use all the space in a bag; I’m working on that. 😂
When the pillow bag trend dies, the Chanel 19 might lose its popularity too. I'm reminded of the Gabrielle and Boy bag... only the Classic really stays.
Honestly I got obsessed with it watching videos online. But when I saw it and wore it in the store, I was terribly underwhelmed and disappointed with it. although I love the mixed metal and the overall look of the bag, I found it to be uncomfortable and impractical. The chain kept falling off my shoulder, the chain drop was awkward, and the top handle chain links pinched my fingers while I held it. Huge NO: I ended up getting a beautiful trendy instead
I am with you on this! I have a single flap jumbo in distressed calfskin which is less structured (looking puffy and pillowy) and it is definitely more functional than chanel 19
I'd prefer the small YSL puffer, it's on my wishlist but I am only buying one new bag in 2022. One! Lol. We'll see what I end up with. Thank you for speaking up about the WOC, it's so overrated imo. Very long fixed chain that's unforgiving for a woman under 5'4", so most women, and it doesn't hold anything. For three grand??? pass!
I love the look of the Chanel 19 and have wanted one....so I appreciated your comparison to the Boy bag. That's probably going to be so true. With the prices being what they are I am really trying to go the timeless route (in all luxury bag brands).
I would love a small Chanel 19 but the price is currently insane lately. I was a massive Chanel fan (I still am) but more conservative these days with my purchases xx loving your content x
I like you are a Chanel long time lover. I have to disagree here with you comparing the Boy and the 19. I was never a fan since the day Chanel released the Boy bag and still today I don’t like it, same for the Gabriel and a few other styles. As per the 19, I hated the look of the bag at first thinking it was not going to be for me because I am a CF and structured kind of girl by heart. After once trying the bag, it made me realize that is less carefree (even in lambskin) and more easy to wear that my CFs . I think is one of those bags that will wear as is, relaxed and soft. I also love that the lambskin is coated and more resistant to scratches. I only have 1 in my collection and it’s the 21k caramel in the medium size, one size bigger than yours, love that it was Karl’s last creation.
I really like the Chanel 19 but for the price I don’t think it’s worth it !! I would love ❤️ the YSL small puffer Same vibe but better price and still great quality!
I love the pink jacket on you! I think it should be a keeper 👍🏽 As for the 19, I agree with you… As a crossbody it’s big and bulky for my frame. Clutching or Top Handling worked best for me! I ended up selling mine and don’t miss it. So that’s a good sign for me 😅 Enjoyed this video Jess and love the lipstick! 💜💕
I love how you evolve with every video jessie, you look so comfortable in front of the camera these days :)) Also, great video, it`s ahead of its time hehe^^
I don’t have a single Chanel bag but if I’m going to add one to my collection it would be a single flap bag that looks like a classic flap. Thanks for the tip.
I’d always wondered this myself but TK maxx = TJ maxx the American company just changed the name for certain counties/markets. Weirdly it was renamed to avoid confusion with a etailer that I’d never even heard of (TJ Hughes)
I’m a classic flap girl, I just don’t get the vibe of the 19, but I don’t like any puffer bag styles. Maybe it’s my age, but it definitely seems like a trend item. I’ll stick to my classics 😉
I love the Chanel 19 I own it and LOVE LOVE LOVE more then the classic and while I was in the store they told me this is the new classic price amazing cheaper then the classic too more affordable and more practicable.
Ahhh last famous words, “if you are obsessed with a bag, just go ahead and get it” Hahaha😂😂💦👏🏼 The never ending life struggles !! 🥴hehe😅 I LOVE your 19 💙Even though it’s that puffy look, when it first came out, gave me major classic vibes where as the others you mentioned, I’d feel like I’d have to eat them up later 🙄🙅🏻♀️🤑 That jumbo 😍 and brown, love and truly will never go out of style 👏🏼haha You have the best Chanel collection hands down! Man I can listen to you yap forever about this stuff!!!!! 😂hahahaha👏🏼😍💞👑
Have to agree about the Chanel 19 WOC… length is annoying but actually I’ve seen a YT review in mandarin where this lady came up with an ingenious idea to shorten strap. It does work although I’m giving it a miss as the Lambskin is especially prone to dents inside the flap and at the back of the WOC

i think the black contrasts really well with the hardware as well!!

ooo yes I agree it cant compare to a CF
Meh. I feel like it’s modern hip vs granny. Just depends on what vibe you’re going for.
We have TKMAXX in the UK too 😊
OOOoOOOOOo i had no idea!!!!!😱💖

i know fashion is SO fast lately!!!! who knows how long it will last at this pace and rate of price increases!
The 19 looks more chic and young on u.. Jumbo looks much more mature.
agree!!! 19 has a much more modern and rebellious look
Yess
The 19 didn’t work out for my small frame but it is cool looking. 😉

Hi Jessie! What is the name of the bag you showed as a comparison to the 19? The one that also has the top handle chain? I love it! Thank you!
Pondicherry bag! thanks so much!!
I think every bag should have mixed metals on the hardware, it in my humble opinion. That would solve a few problems!
When the pillow bag trend dies, the Chanel 19 might lose its popularity too. I'm reminded of the Gabrielle and Boy bag... only the Classic really stays.
every fashion house has their staples, and the other items work around that

Hanging shade on the 19 - you’re a brave woman Jessie, love it 😊
HHAHAHH indeed!!!! why are we both dis-ing the 19 lately!!!

I love how you evolve with every video jessie, you look so comfortable in front of the camera these days :)) Also, great video, it`s ahead of its time hehe^^
Thank you so much!! Appreciate your support!!! 👜
I don’t have a single Chanel bag but if I’m going to add one to my collection it would be a single flap bag that looks like a classic flap. Thanks for the tip.
thanks for watching!!!
Love the fuchsia lippy
ooooo thannkyou! 👄👄
I love the 19 and always wanted to buy one. But I don't think it's worth $8000, so I'll probably never buy one
it is pretty pricey!!!!
Can I use the leather conditioner for caviar?? Thank you so much
yes!

Keep the Acne jacket!!! I love it!!! xoxo
OMG hi Jasmina!!! okay if you say so hehe!!!😘💖
@@Jessiestyle yay!!!
I’m a classic flap girl, I just don’t get the vibe of the 19, but I don’t like any puffer bag styles. Maybe it’s my age, but it definitely seems like a trend item. I’ll stick to my classics 😉
classics are defs the safest option! probably my fav aswell
I shop in mens also in Tj max u can find great stuff😘
haha totally!!! and its cheaper than the womens section!
love your boy bag in the denim!
Thanks so much!!!🌟

I love Chanel 19 it's easy to use and functional.
i do use it alot!!! In my opinion however you can get other seasonal Chanel bags that do a similar thing for a lot less $$$$
Love mine to. It’s comfy and casual
@@katemiller7874 Love mine too
You are really cute Jessie ~ I love your vibe x
But the Chanel 19 you have is so cute on you!
I don’t own a Chanel 19, I like the look on other people but it still reminds me of a pillow 😂
hahahah yes!
🙄
TKMaxx, lol. That is funny. I love TJMaxx . I shop in there all the time.
Keep pink jacket I love it
thanks Laura!!!!
Classic flap is the ugliest bag I ever seen, an old lady bag
Omg I'm not alone. I just can't appreciate the classic flap at all. It's just not my vibe.
Did you skip your meds?
