If you haven’t heard, the Oscars took place on Sunday, and the stars served some serious looks. Among them was Billie Eilish, who is now the youngest person ever to win two Oscars. This time for Best Original Song, What Was I Made For?, written for the box office hit, Barbie. Eilish accepted her award in a posh Chanel fit (it's giving “school girl” but in the best way possible). The singer sported a houndstooth skirt, calf-high white socks, classic black strap block heels, a fitted black blazer, and a white collared undershirt.
To round out the look, Eilish was styled with a voluminous blowout, neutral makeup colored with babydoll pink blush, and the real star of the show — a Mini Chanel Houndstooth Wool Square Flap Bag which costs $7,500. It’s a stunning vintage purse that is made in Italy out of 100% wool with an intertwined leather and gold strap chain. The iconic Chanel logo fronts as a turn lock, which blends into the timeless houndstooth pattern. In short, it’s a gorgeous bag that we need at our disposal as soon as possible.
Because spending thousands on a bag—no matter how pretty—isn’t exactly feasible for most, we searched for alternative options that you can sport at your next date night, friend dinner, or just a regular day in the office.
This Leather Black And White Houndstooth Shoulder Bag is a dead ringer for the OG Chanel purse, just without the iconic logo and approximately 4 inches larger in length. It’s available on Amazon for about $30 and is made out of PU leather and woolen cloth. Inside the bag is the main pocket, zipper pocket, ID pocket, and a cellphone pocket.
Bloomingdale’s is also currently offering a sale on this slightly smaller Sandro Yza Tweed Convertible Crossbody for $216. You can pair the purse with another houndstooth print like Billie or opt to throw it into your daily wear. The beauty of the bag — aside from the actual bag — is that you’ll feel award-winning no matter which outfit you match it with.
