This classic carryall by Chloé is simply divine. It holds all your essentials and easily goes from the office to a long weekend. If you’re planning a mini-vacation at the beach this summer, how perfect would this very chic handbag be, paired with some white shorts and a breezy oversized top or sweater? Add some vintage inspired eyewear, and you’ll look like you just stepped out of your villa in St. Tropez! Definitely loving the “gypset” style, but looking for something a little less expensive? Check out the gorgeous options below!

Real vs. Steal – Chloé Elsie Miniature Shoulder Bag

by Roseanne on April 23, 2012

Mini shoulder bags like this one by Chloé have become a summer staple due to the sartorial appeal and trendy coral hue. I love the golden embellishments drawing attention to this compact handbag. It’s the perfect size to carry one’s most prized possessions without the bulk. Whether it’s the papaya-like color that I can’t get enough of or the feminine silhouette, regardless, I don’t have $795 to invest. But that’s why we have an alternative below!

Just think about all of the fun outings to which you’ll be wearing them! I am envisioning myself at a French café, sipping on a hot cappuccino and chocolate croissant. The only drawback about my lovely daydream is the not-so-dreamy price of the shoes. But not to despair, you can be sure we’ve found the best alternative yet! Check out the fabulous steal below…
