The calendar may still say Summer (at least for a few more days) but Chanel dictates that Fall is here, fashion-wise. Views of Chanel’s Fall-Winter 2020/2021 Collection are on its website as bags trickle into stores. We previewed some of the handbags at the time of the March 2020 runway show (read: A Peek at the Chanel Bags Expected Fall 2020).
Now, however, we get an up close and personal look, virtually of course. Here are some of the standouts.
Leather and Pearls
Toughen up your pearls with leather. Or sweeten your leather with pearls. Either way it’s an appealing combination on the petite Chanel options. In fact, these are considered small leather goods (rather than handbags). But, they sure pack a lot of style into a little package (and a more manageable price).
Clutch with Chain
Price: $2,750
The simplicity and charm of this clutch with its black lambskin exterior, featuring a small chain made of faux pearls, reminds us of Audrey Hepburn’s iconic outfit in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Her black Givenchy dress and pearls featured in the 1961 film is one of the most iconic movie outfits to date. Perhaps Chanel drew some inspiration from the flick for this clutch.

Mini Wallet on Chain
Price: $3,450
This beautiful mini wallet on chain features materials similar to that of the clutch with chain. The wallet is marginally bigger than the clutch and the faux pearl chain is longer, allowing you to attempt a cross body style more comfortably!

Vanity Case
$ 4,100
It doesn’t get more feminine than this pretty Vanity Case in pale pink (we definitely do not recommend using it to store toiletries or makeup though).

This year we see a version of the minaudière from the 2014 cruise collection. That’s right, the infamous perfume bottle minaudière is back! This bag is inspired by the brand’s iconic perfume Chanel No 5. Indeed, Marilyn Monroe once scandalously claimed that the perfume was the only thing she wore to bed.
