If you like the look of Chanel’s Coco Cocoon bags, MZ Wallace offers an alternative

If you’ve been trying to find a less-expensive alternative to Chanel’s puffy, quilted Coco Cocoon bags recently, well, you’re in luck. The MZ Wallace Sutton Nylon Satchel may not be made out of natural materials, but it certainly owes a design debt to the famed Parisian label.

For me, the real question is why anyone would want to replicate the look of those particular Chanel bags. They’re lumpy, misshapen and not at all sleek, in addition to being wildly expensive. If you see something in them that I don’t, this satchel is a good way to achieve the look without spending so much money on something that looks like a gym bag.

Come to think of it, if you were in the market for an expensive gym bag, this satchel would make a pretty good one. Maybe that’s the perspective I should be taking with the Coco Cocoon line. Buy through Nordstrom for $245.
