Vintage Style Handbags at Very!

A women’s handbag collection is never complete. Before, my spring wardrobe is officially finalized I need to assess to one more thing – my handbag collection. This season brings us many shapes and styles, and I could not be more excited to incorporate some fun and coveted handbags into my collection. I checked out Very and was really impressed with their vintage style bags. Definitely different than the pieces I already have in my collection, making them excellent purchase options. Here are a few of my favourites:

Fiorelli Black

Quilted Satchel - £95.00

I adore the last Fiorelli Black Feather Clutch. It is screaming my name! After such a long winter I think it’s time to treat my accessories closet and purchase these fabulous finds. Not only are they chic, but they are also timeless, great quality and most importantly stylish!

Chanel Coco Cocoon

Lily Allen is the face of the new handbag line, Chanel Coco Cocoon, which is set to debut in October of this year. The line brings a fun twist to Chanel handbags as the bags are reversible. And straying from the expected, the Coco Cocoon line sports puffy leather. Lily Allen looks regal in a campaign for Chanel's forthcoming handbag. The company is no stranger to Lily; indeed Karl Lagerfeld has been a fan for some time. The German-born designer says: 'She looks a lot like Gabrielle Chanel and she is a self-made woman. She is cool, young and extremely witty. She is extremely inspiring and is completely taken with the bags - with her typical English casualness!'
I have never thought of Lily Allen as someone who could model for such a high class line, but she looks unrecognizable in the photographs, and I must say they are phenomenal - very Audrey Hepburn.

What do you think of Chanel's new line of handbags?

PS. I just came across this picture and I wanted to share it with everyone. I think it is hilarious. love it!
