While many designers have gone through various aesthetic changes throughout the years, Chanel has always had the ability to expirement while staying close to the brand's roots. There are a few items that are synonmous with the French house's classic look— tweed skirt sets, quilted flap bags, slingbacks, and black-and-white swimsuits come to mind first. And whether it's from the Karl Lagerfield themed Met Gala in a week or the three Chanel bridal looks Sofia Richie donned this past weekend, the legacy brand is all people can talk about right now.
With that, I couldn't help but do a little deep-dive into Chanel's runway collections (both vintage and recent) and find some affordable alts. Because while me and Sofia Richie may be the same age, a wardrobe of Chanel looks isn't quite in my budget right now. Hours of scouring the internet later, I was left with 30 products that give the Chanel feel without topping $150. Keep scrolling to shop for yourself.
