Emily in Paris checked all the boxes of my typical easy, rom-com-style drama show, but for some reason, I was a holdout for the first two seasons. Then season 3 dropped, and I binged all three seasons quickly and found myself a convert. One reason I love the show is the fashion – it’s both overly clichè as an American in Paris and gives us some early over-the-top Sex and the City-like outfit fun. And, of course, a wide array of bags!
Side note, if you want to revisit the bags the cast has carried on the show – we have all the Chanel bags here.
Lily Collins has been a brand ambassador for several brands over the years, but her latest excites me most. Cartier tapped Lily Collins again (after multiple successful campaigns) for a whimsical look at the Panthère de Cartier and C de Cartier Handbag lines set in Paris.
While Cartier jewelry and watches are what most of us know the brand best for, jewelry companies expanding their bag lines seems to be a priority.
Jewel Like Adornments
I believe now is the ideal time for brands like Cartier to push into the handbag world; with so much bag noise, having something equally luxurious but more under the radar is exciting and new.
My bag of choice is the Cartier C de Cartier East West Bag (filled with carbs, obviously). The simple but recognizable Cartier logo sits pretty on the front of the bag, and it feels like an if you know, you know kind of bag.
Lily Collins also sports the Panthère de Cartier Bag, which showcases beautiful leather with curved embossing alongside the signature Cartier panther motif with a golden and black enamel-finish clasp.
These shots are staged, but less staged in feeling, and make me excited for my guilty pleasure show to return while checking out the bags that will make an appearance. Bravo to Cartier for making these two lines of bags feel fun!

I wish they would remove the “C” since it’s too Coach-like. Also, it would make their bags fall more into the “quiet luxury” category.
Why does everyone turn up their snobbish nose here and SH IT on Coach?? What if it looked more like a Hermès bag, would anyone complain about the similarly then??
Exactly. Until I read the headline, I assumed she was a new Coach spokesperson.
I see a Coach bag, Gucci Marmont, Celine Triomphe shoulder bag…with a Chloe emblem. I have no doubt the leather is nice but these bags look like copies/dupes.
and a bit of (straight rival) bvlgari
cute bags but hiring emily in paris makes it gauche
Love the emerald green mini chain bag!
This is everything.
Over the years, I have admired several Cartier designs. In fact, Cartier C de Cartier is probably my favourite bag design ever, from any brand! However, Cartier LEATHER QUALITY has, to me at least, always felt really, really poor. So I have never bought one.
But maybe the leather quality has improved in recent years?
I love this! It’s such a fun campaign
Ohhh I love these bags!!
