Classic Quilted Bag

Classic flap back $4700-6000 (depending on size)

 

 

For years I've lusted over the iconic black quilted Chanel bag. I'm not sure if it is the chain strap, or the classic leather exterior- but this simple bag is something I'll be left dreaming after since they are over $5k. Chanel sells different styles, sizes and materials, but unfortunately all carry a hefty price tag.

 

I've seen the real deal in person and it's amazingly soft and well made. Chanel also refurbishes old bags (for a charge of course) but can make an expensive purchase into a lifetime product.

 

Here's the real deal and some cheaper alternatives:
