12 Most Affordable Chanel Bags in 2025
During Chanel’s latest earnings call, Global CEO Leena Nair and Global CFO Philippe Blondiaux delivered the kind of news fashion lovers have been craving: no big price hikes on the horizon. That’s right—after years of consistent increases, Chanel is finally hitting pause. Maybe they’ve finally realized their handbags are already teetering on the edge of unattainable? Well, whatever the reason may be, one thing is certain: even without another price jump, Chanel bags will still cost a pretty penny in 2025.
Are you dreaming of adding that iconic CC to your collection without blowing your entire budget? Well, you are in luck, because the other day while browsing through Chanel’s website, I discovered quite a few fairly affordable styles. Ranging from versatile clutches to spacious totes, keep scrolling to discover the 12 most affordable Chanel bags in 2025.
1. Chanel Classic Pouch ($1,375)
Not technically a bag, but still a piece that can be easily used as one, the Chanel Classic Pouch opens up the list of the most affordable Chanel bags in 2025. Also known among Chanel aficionados simply as an “O Case”, the Chanel Classic Pouch is crafted from Chanel’s supple lambskin leather into a timeless rectangular silhouette with a top zip closure and one main interior compartment.
The piece opens up to a spacious, burgundy interior with plenty of space for all of your essentials, incl. a larger iPhone. There is also an extra slip pocket on the back for additional storage.
2. Chanel Pouch ($2,600)
If you’re someone who’s following bag trends, this next bag on the list may interest you. That’s right, I am talking about the popular Chanel Mesh Pouch. Arriving with the brand’s SS25 collection, this cutesy handbag is Chanel’s answer to the ongoing trend for mesh bags.
Crafted from a playful blend of mesh and smooth leather, the Pouch makes a bold fashion statement with its on-trend, crescent bag silhouette. And it girls around the world are already going crazy—which is really no wonder, considering its somewhat friendly entry-level price tag of $2,600.
3. Chanel Small Vanity with Chain ($2,750)
Can you really use a vanity case as a handbag? Well, according to Chanel (and every major fashion influencer out there), you definitely can, and their adorable Small Vanity with Chain is proof!
Fashioned in shiny calfskin with gold-tone metal details, incl. the iconic CC logo at the front, the Small Vanity with Chain opens to reveal a leather-lined interior with a cosmetics holder and mirror (obviously, we can’t imagine a vanity case without a mirror). Carry yours over the shoulder or as a crossbody for a chic, hands-free look.
4. Chanel Clutch With Chain ($2,475)
Next on the list of the most affordable Chanel bags is the Chanel Clutch with Chain, or, to say more precisely, the iteration of the Chanel Clutch With Chain modeled after the brand’s popular 31 Bag. Yes, the Chanel Clutch With Chain comes available in a variety of iterations. And honestly, it’s easy to see why.
Combining the convenience of a shoulder bag and the elegance of a clutch, the Chanel Clutch With Chain makes for a perfect going-out bag. Just pack your card holder, lipstick and you’re good to go!
5. Chanel Large Clutch ($2,950)
Need something roomier than the earlier mentioned Clutch with Chain? Chanel’s Large Clutch from the Spring/Summer 2025 collection might just be the perfect fit. Crafted from buttery-soft lambskin, this stylish clutch bag features a leather-lined interior with plenty of space for all of your essentials.
Though what truly sets the Chanel Large Clutch apart is the delicate faux pearl detailing and iconic CC logo that bring a refined, feminine edge. It’s basically the kind of clutch you can wear anywhere from a brunch to a chic evening event.
6. Chanel Clutch With Chain ($3,100)
Playing with transparency, Chanel’s yet another Clutch with Chain offers a playful twist on a mesh bag trend. Essentially a mesh shoulder bag with sleek lambskin leather trim, it comes with an interwoven chain strap and an attached lambskin pouch, reminiscent of a mini O-case—to keep your most important essentials discreetly tucked away.
Light, breezy, and undeniably chic, this iteration of the Clutch with Chain is perfect for summer outings when you want to show off your look but without taking yourself too seriously.
7. Chanel Classic Wallet On Chain ($3,550)
Effortlessly stylish and endlessly chic, the Chanel Classic Wallet on Chain, or simply the WOC, also makes the list of the most affordable Chanel bags. In fact, if you could only own one Chanel bag for life—the WOC would probably be the smartest choice, as, unlike many other Chanel bags on this list, this one keeps going up in price.
Furthermore, Chanel recently updated the design of their Classic Wallet on Chain by replacing the magnetic closure with the iconic CC turnlock. The interior, however, remained unchanged, featuring 6 credit card slots, a zipped compartment, and a leather patch pocket.
8. Chanel Long Vanity With Chain ($3,875)
Fashioned in a traditional vanity bag silhouette with a top handle and a zip-around closure, Chanel’s Long Vanity with Chain is a classic addition to any collection. Decorated with the CC logo as well as a metal “Chanel” plaque at the top, the bag is unmistakably Chanel, exuding that signature mix of elegance and edge.
The vanity case design also offers plenty of room for all of the essentials, incl. your phone and wallet, while the leather-interwoven chain strap makes it easy to wear this bag both crossbody and on the shoulder.
9. Chanel Flap Phone Holder With Chain ($4,200)
In the world where we use our phones more than anything else, phone bags make quite a lot of sense. And let’s just be honest: the Chanel Flap Phone Holder with Chain is much more than just a phone bag—it is also a stylish fashion statement.
Crafted in diamond-quilted caviar leather with gold-tone hardware elements, incl. the iconic CC logo, a metal top handle, and an interwoven chain strap, the Chanel Flap Phone Holder with Chain is a super cute accessory to carry your phone and cards.
10. Chanel Deauville (from $4,500)
The first bag on the list that is neither an SLG nor a wallet on a chain is the Chanel Deauville Tote. A fairly new addition to the Chanel Deauville range, the small size is about 10.5 inches tall and 13.25 inches wide, which makes it a perfect bag for everyday and more.
Opening up to one main compartment with a magnetic top closure and an interior zipper pocket, the Chanel Small Deauville Tote will effortlessly fit in all of your day-to-day essentials while still leaving plenty of room to spare. Furthermore, the bag also comes with a removable pouch, which if desired, could be worn by itself as a clutch or used as a catchall in other bags.
11. Chanel Mini Flap Bag (from $5,000)
Like the look of the Classic Flap, but don’t want to spend $10,000+? Well, if that’s the case, then you might want to consider the Chanel Mini Flap instead. Available in two main options: square and rectangular, the Mini Flap offers all the main features of the Classic Flap and at a fraction of the cost.
Specifically, the Square Mini is currently priced at $5,000, whereas the Rectangular Mini can be yours for $5,200. And just so you know, many people say that due to an absence of the double flap, the Rectangular Mini can hold as much, if not more than the Small Classic Flap!
12. Chanel Mini 22 ($5,000)
If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you know that I am not a big fan of the Chanel 22 Bag (it’s just a little bit too slouchy for my liking). I must admit, however, that the mini size is indeed pretty cute. I guess it’s the daintier silhouette of this bag that has made me change my mind.
Furthermore, in addition to an interwoven shoulder strap, the Chanel Mini 22 Bag also comes with an extra strap for crossbody wear, which makes it way more practical than the original 22 Bag. Currently available for $5,000 in shiny calfskin.
