50 More Photos That Prove Chanel Bags are the Reigning Celebrity Favorites

When I sat down to compile the photos for this post, I didn’t know that it was going to be about Chanel. As I started looking through our photo agency’s recent archives, though, it became clear that it had to be; no other brand exerts the kind of dominance among high-profile women’s handbag collections that Chanel does.

Not only is are the brand’s bags omnipresent, but they appear on the arms of basically every kind of celebrity there is. Reality stars, celebrated actresses, pop queens, former child stars, fashion editors and high-profile bloggers. No one’s immune, apparently. We already compiled 100 images of stars and their favorite Chanel bags, and in the time since then, we easily found another 50. Check them out below.

Bella Thorne
Chanel Classic Flap Bag

Bella is not yet old enough to vote, but she’s already starting to amass an impressive Chanel collection.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley
Chanel Boy Bag

Rosie can be much more commonly found carrying Givenchy or Saint Laurent, so spotting her with this gilded little Boy Bag was a treat.

Taraji P. Henson
Chanel Boy Bag

Taraji’s hit show Empire has put the paparazzi on her tail more often in the past year, and that means we get more frequent peeks at her seemingly huge Chanel collection.

She really, really loves them.

Daisy Lowe
Chanel Reissue Flap Bag

I’m not sure what’s going on here, honestly. It’s got a Reissue chain and closure, but it appears as though the flap is embossed croc and the body is python? I’ve never seen another bag exactly like this before.

This is, somehow, not the only Chanel fanny pack you’re going to see before the end of this post.

50 Celebrities Carrying Chanel BaGS-27

Lily is a great example of a seemingly permanent member of the Chanel family.

Hilary, on the other hand, has at least three Boy Bags that I can think of off the top of my head; she’s a longtime fan.

50 Celebrities Carrying Chanel BaGS-39

Julia Restoin Roitfeld
Chanel Canvas Logo Tote

A lot of fashion people consider the Roitfeld’s the ne plus ultra of chic, so anything they carry is worth noting.

50 Celebrities Carrying Chanel BaGS-40

Nicky Hilton
Chanel Classic Flap Bag

Nicky, like Hilary Duff, is another celeb whose love for Chanel bags clearly goes beyond the brand’s trendiness.

50 Celebrities Carrying Chanel BaGS-41
