Though Chanel makes a myriad of bags, there’s something about a great black bag from Chanel that is just oh-so-good. I’ve spent my free time, the little of it that I have post-baby, looking at baby gear and clothing, but my love for great bags always sneaks in. I need a little something in my life that isn’t about being a mom or for my baby, and a bag (that isn’t a diaper bag) would fit that want very nicely.
I kept thinking I wanted another Chanel Boy Bag, but when I found this Chanel Chevron Flap Bag, I changed my mind. Granted handbag wish list is ever evolving, but this bag could easily always fill a top spot. From the chevron stitched grained calfskin to the darker ruthenium hardware, this bag screams NYC or any wardrobe that loves black and craves a good bag.
The size of this bag is ample, with dimensions of 10.8 x 17.9 x 5.3 inches and a classic chain strap handle. This is just one of those bags that upon seeing it, I fell for it and wanted to add it to my collection. As much as I want to pop to the store and buy this bag, diapers and baby items aren’t cheap (don’t even get me started on the mostly organic diaper cream that we buy!), but one of you should buy it and let me live vicariously. Price is $5,200.
Wow they are selling vintage- wonder when that started..
Wow they are selling vintage! Who knew
i have chevron Boy and love it!
Yep, I love the chevron Boy bag too!
Megs, I have the Chanel Reissue 2.55 so black chevron flap bag from last year’s collection, and it’s lovely!
It’s funny because people compliment me on the bag fairly often, not knowing it’s Chanel.
Your bag is gorgeous!!!
Thanks so much! She was a big splurge (before this, the most I’d ever spent on a bag was $750), but I love her!
This is the bag I’m currently lusting after! Either in black or a deep red.
Ahh!! Have a pic to share?!
You bet! Here she is in Rome, where I bought her last summer.
AH I LOVE LOVE LOVE this bag!!!!
Thank you!
I’ve been drooling over the chevron boy… but the flap is beautiful too!
Same. If only I could get both…
This is literally the exact bag I’ve been lusting after lately. I’m more of a Boy fan, but I feel that I really need a classic flap in my wardrobe, especially as I get older. It’s just a more sophisticated bag than my beloved Boys. Even still, something about it leaves me unexcited, so I never take the plunge. I’m actually super excited about this chevron flap and intend to add it to my collection. I like chevron quilting in general, and the hardware is more modern and less stuffy than the gold.
Overall this bag has a much younger feel and that’s why I love it so much!! If you get it, do let me know how amazing it is in person!
