We are huge fans of vintage Chanel pieces for a few reasons. First and foremost they have character that comes with age and history. When we wear them we know that no one else will have the same thing. We also like that they can be worked into professional, casual, or dressy outfits making for endless possibilities. Vintage Chanel may have been worn decades ago, but these definitely aren't your grandmother's looks. We mined our favorite boards on Pinterest to bring you five cute ways to style vintage Chanel.  

Vintage Chanel Double Flap Bag with Cut-Off Shorts and a Black Tee

This vintage Double Flap bag from the late '80s is classically structured, but perennially modern. Sincerely Jules paired her similar style with cut-off jeans and simple black heels. Chanel Vintage Limited Edition Double Flap, $1484.99    

Vintage Chanel Maxi Jumbo XL Bag with a Neutral Sweater and Heels

We adore the oversized CCs on this vintage Maxi Jumbo XL. The Brooklyn Blonde pairs hers with a neutral outfit that lets the bag take center stage. Chanel Vintage Black Quilted Lambskin Maxi Jumbo XL Flap Bag, $3399.99    

Vintage Chanel Earrings with a Red Lip and Retro-Inspired Shades

Vintage Chanel earrings look so chic when paired with casual outfits. The Style Scribe wears her clip-ons with a simple sweater, bold lip, and dramatic cat-eye sunglasses. Her look strikes the perfect balance between fun, casual, and polished.

Vintage Chanel Necklaces with an All-Black Outfit

Who can forget Anne Hathaway's The Devil Wears Prada wardrobe? We still adore this all-black night out look with layered Chanel necklaces. After all, the only thing better than a Chanel necklaces is multiple Chanel necklaces.

Chanel's Resort 2017 collection proved once again that a graphic tee is the perfect counterpoint to a classic Chanel jacket. The faux pearl-lined one above is neutral and wearable with a bunch of different tops and bottoms.
