This Vintage Chanel Denim Cosmetics Bag Is a '90s Sweetheart
The ultimate accessory.
Chanel is a brand that’s obviously renowned for its luxurious handbags. Ever since Coco Chanel debuted the iconic 2.55 shoulder bag in 1955, it’s been a timeless classic that’s been worn and coveted by women worldwide. This denim bag however, is a bit of a twist on the more well-known silhouettes and perfectly embodies that quirky ’90s girl aesthetic.
The denim-coated upper takes on a boxy, makeup bag shape and has a two-way zip-around top, with exposed gold-tone hardware. Denim-pull tabs and a delicate, engraved Chanel padlock adds to the luxe look. The double styling of the bag makes it ultra versatile – you can use the round top handle to carry it in your hand or use the detachable shoulder strap for a more practical approach. As expected, the interior is super roomy and also boasts a logo stamp and elasticated straps to keep your items in place.
Completing this glamourous yet oh-so-cool bag is contrasting stitching throughout, a hanging leather tag and of course, the stitched interlocked CC logo that sits proudly across the front. It is vintage, so there aren’t loads of this style flooding the market at the moment and it’s sure to stand out amongst some of the brand’s more widely-popular pieces.
You can shop it at Farfetch if your budget allows – it’s retailing for $6353 USD. The price-tag may be steep, but remember, many Chanel bags increase in value so it might just be a savvy investment after all. Don’t forget to peep these plastic Chanel handbags for a fun, fashion-forward look.
