What is it about Chanel accessories that we love? Is it the chic gold hardware? Is it the bold CC? Is it the gilt chain woven with leather that makes the bags a little edgier then some other just oh so ladylike bags? Is it that the iconic quilted bag is as stylish and desirable now as it was when Coco Chanel first launched it in 1955? Is it that a bag, a belt, or a great cuff is something you can wear over and over again? Is it that the movie Coco Avant Chanel is coming out soon and will definitely make us want all things Chanel?? As if we already didn't! Is it... okay, we could go on and on so let's just get to the best part: RARE vintage's Chanel mega post!

Late 1980s leather and chain charm bracelet. You've got all of your favorite iconic Chanel symbols on this one: you've got your quilted 2.55 handbag on a moveable chain (our favorite!), you've got your camellia, you've got your No. 5, your clover, you've got the idea...
Deep dark and deliciously brown 1980s Chanel bag with leather and chain shoulder strap. Big ol' gold toggle just adds to that 80s glam feel. Perfect bag for running around town and looking quite stylish while you multi task.
So, you have your keys, a small make up bag, your blackberry, mail, oh, your husband has just given you his keys and, ahh, his camera. The children are handing you their Nintendo DS. Fortunately, you are no ordinary woman because you have your super size brown quilted leather Chanel bag which is big enough to handle everyone's stuff! We highly recommend one of our other smaller Chanel bags below when you have decided that you have had enough and are going carry only your own things!
