The Next Best Thing: Chanel Quilted Bags
By TheFashionEditor | June 23, 2007
The classic Chanel handbag is an iconic piece of fashion history. And a woman will pay handsomely for the privilege of carrying an accessory with such distinction. What if you love the elegant look of the quilted bag, but don’t necessarily have a couple of thousand dollars to plop down for a clutch.
You could rent a Chanel, and a whole host of other high-end bags, through Bag Borrow or Steal. It’s a site that works a lot like Netflix, with membership prices and then rental prices for specific bags. You keep the bag as long as you want, then send it back and order another one, always staying current on the latest It bags.

AUTHENTIC CHANEL CLASSIC QUILTED HANDBAG
This brand, plus every other high-end designer you can think of, available for rental at BagBorrowOrSteal.com

Yet maybe real Chanel is still a little too rich for your blood, or just not on your top priority list. What are some other similar options? Well, there are plenty of “inspired by” quilted looks out there waiting for your attention. So you can’t have Chanel? Try the next best thing.
