Hello Lovelies!
Welcome Back to another installment of Purse Diaries. Today’s subject is my ever- chic Chanel Vanity Case Bag.
So this was actually a very recent purchase for me. I bought this in Venice, Italy when I was there in October. However, it has quickly ascended to the top of my favorites lists. I originally wanted the beige and black version (which I still adore!!!!), But when I saw this Navy color, I felt like it was different and not a lot of people owned this color so, I went for it. I bought the small size because I felt like it was easier to transition it from day to night and the small size holds so much.
The Vanity Case Bag was introduced in Chanel’s S/S 2016 Airline Collection which was absolutely gorgeous. The Vanity Case bag is a modernized take on the vanity train cases that were used back in the 1950s/1960s. The fashion and style in the 1960’s have to be my all-time favorite; It was so chic. Chanel’s take on this bag feels so fresh yet so classic. Almost like you can picture Audrey Hepburn carrying one.
I mean you guys, how perfect is she?
OBSESSED!!!

This bag is seriously chic. I love it more than I even thought I did. It is totally functional yet still super classy. I love the details like the interlocking Cs lock and the keys. I even love the shape and how the zipper runs almost through the whole square shape. You guys I think I have worn this bah more than any bag in the last couple months! Case in Point–>
Do you see my obsession?! I don’t see myself ever getting tired of wearing it.

I want this bag in the beige & black combination so bad!! Unfortunately for me they don’t have this combo in stores at the moment 😭 I wish I had taken the plunge last year 😭 next time it’s released in that combo I will be snapping it up! Great post!
ugghhh I know! Chanel is so frustrating that way! However, I heard from a Chanel SA that the beige and black combo should be coming out! So keep an eye out! <3 Thank you for reading!
