So, why white? Well, Chanel’s got this whole thing about classic colors, right? Black, beige, red, and, yup, you guessed it, white. They’re the foundation, the bedrock, the, uh, *fluffiest* clouds upon which Chanel’s seasonal color explosions are built. And honestly, white just *screams* chic. Like, you could be wearing jeans and a tee, but sling a white Chanel bag over your shoulder, and suddenly you’re Audrey Hepburn strolling through Paris. (Okay, maybe not *Audrey*, but you get the vibe.)
I’ve been eyeing a white Chanel 22 Small Handbag myself. I saw it on the Chanel website (spring-summer 2025 collection, if you wanna stalk it with me!) and it’s made of calfskin with gold-tone and lacquered metal. Gorgeous! I’m thinking it’ll be the perfect hobo bag. I think it’s perfect for running errands (in style, of course) or, you know, just generally looking fabulous.
But the thing about white is… it’s white. Like, *really* white. I’m a notorious klutz. Red wine? Check. Coffee spills? Double-check. So, the thought of owning a pristine white Chanel bag fills me with equal parts joy and sheer terror. Like, it’s gonna be a magnet for dirt, isn’t it? I can already see myself carrying around a Tide To Go pen everywhere.
And then there’s the question of *which* white Chanel bag. Crossbody? Backpack? I saw something about how Vogue editors are styling white Chanel bags, which, let’s be real, is basically the gospel. I need to find that article again. Oh, and eBay is ALWAYS a good place to browse too, especially for vintage finds. I mean, who doesn’t love a good bargain? Plus, a pre-loved bag has *character*, you know?
Speaking of vintage, don’t even get me started on the different shades of white! Is it cream? Is it ivory? Is it that super-bright, almost blinding white? It’s a whole *thing*, people. A whole *thing*. Black, white, beige and red Chanel bags will always be the design house’s foundation. Additional colors in many distinctive shades come and go with the seasons.
