This could be the smallest Boy Chanel from Chanel yet.
Measuring a wee 15 cm by 10 cm by 6 cm, it is even smaller than your standard mini Flap (those are 20 cm by 12 cm at least on average). It might be small, but it still carries all the signature elements, right down to the metallic clasp and chain sling.
Opening to reveal a boxy compartment that will only fit your absolute essentials (think lipstick/lip balm, several important cards and folded cash), the truth is also this. You won’t be buying this bag because of what it is able to hold, you will be buying it because of how ridiculously cute it is.

Available in at least 2 colours (Black and Coral Pink) although there might be more, both are paired with gold-tone metal hardware for a classic pairing like no other.
Not only is the grained calfskin leather lovely to the touch, it is also a tad more hardy than, say, smooth lambskin leather. Just give it a quick wipe down at the end of the day before popping it back onto your shelf.
Retailing for SGD6650, the Mini Boy Chanel should be arriving in Singapore soon, and will be available at local Chanel boutiques located within Marina Bay Sands and Takashimaya Shopping Centre.
Love it! I managed to get it in dark beige! Very happy with the size!
