Small Boy Messenger Bag

Available

The Chanel Boy, introduced in 2011, is the house's tougher flap; this small messenger wears it in black caviar. Karl Lagerfeld named the line for Arthur "Boy" Capel, the great love of Gabrielle Chanel's early life, and gave it a squarer, more angular shape than the Classic Flap, with a sportier, slightly boyish attitude to match.

Caviar is Chanel's grained calfskin, pressed with a fine pebbled texture that shrugs off scuffs and light rain, which makes it the right leather for a bag meant to be worn daily. At 8.5 inches wide, 6 high and 2.5 deep, it holds a phone, a wallet, keys, sunglasses and a lipstick without strain. The strap drops 22 inches, so it sits at the hip across the body and leaves both hands free.

Everyday and winter are its occasions, and it earns both. Wear it crossbody over a long wool coat, with a chunky knit and leather trousers, or with jeans and boots on errands that turn into lunch. Black caviar goes with everything in a cold-weather wardrobe and asks very little in return. A season with it may convince you that a Chanel can be your hardest-working bag.
