This or That: Chanel 2.55 Reissue vs Chanel Reissue Camera Case

Chanel. It’s one of the most coveted handbag brands of all time, and though widely known for its flap bags like the coveted 11.12, Chanel Boy and the Reissue 2.55, Chanel also offers so many more options making a choice selfsame than one of the classics seem nearly impossible.

Recently, Margot Robbie Is Chic in Chanel Jumpsuit and Flared Heels for 'The Suicide Squad' Premiere on a post when I came across a reader in search of her unicorn bag, a camera bag that doesn’t have a mixed media strap. By mixed media, we’re talking about the chain strap that’s broken up in the middle by a strip of leather. Yes, the leather is meant to make shoulder and crossbody wear more comfortable, but it isn’t the most aesthetically pleasing, admittedly. Oddly enough, an all-chain camera bag is pretty hard to come by; enter: Chanel.

Chanel Reissue Camera Bag

I often forget that Chanel offers a wide range of camera bag styles, especially on the resale and vintage market. This Chanel Reissue Camera would be my top choice if I were looking for a camera bag. For starters, I actually prefer the quilted aged calfskin on the camera bag silhouette versus the flap bag. I think the worn-in, more casual material complements the relaxed silhouette of a camera bag, as does the antique gold hardware. Not to mention, when speaking the language of Chanel, this silhouette is pretty affordable. Reissue camera bag; you have my vote!

Chanel 2.55 Reissue

Now, I understand the “if you’re gonna go, Chanel, go classic” argument, and it doesn’t get more classically Chanel than the Reissue 2.55. This mini bag is crafted from the same quilted aged-calfskin as the camera bag in an adorable petite size. Offering the classic Chanel mademoiselle turn-lock and reissue chain-link, but with polished gold hardware, the 2.55 is a true Chanel classic.
