Chanel’s black quilted bags are classic, but every now and then I long for something just a bit different. The French fashion house delivers with this red suede purse.
It has all of the classic Chanel elements, from the diamond quilted finish to the woven chain straps. But it’s what’s different about this purse that really sets it apart. The traditional black leather is gone, replaced with wintery red suede. The softly curved top is another unique touch; it helps the purse stand out without making it too ostentatious.
The soft suede body gives way to a luxurious leather lining inside. The sophisticated slender shape means we don’t have as much storage space as many everyday bags, but I think it’s worth traveling a little lighter to have this purse on your arm. It has three internal pockets, and a top zip to keep everything you’re carrying secure.
Authentic Chanel never comes cheaply, and at $2390 this quilted bag is no exception. That is a hefty fee considering how quickly suede shows its age, but if you handle it with kid gloves it might be worth the splurge.
