"Thanks, it's Chanel." Want to be able to utter these words without spending two months of rent on one of the most covetable brands in the industry? I scoured Gilt, The Real Real, and Vestiaire to uncover the very best Chanel items you don't have to pay retail prices for. For instance, you have plenty of under-$250 options that range from the perfect miniskirt to the ideal party shoes. (Spring can't come quickly enough.)

I also found some drool-worthy items that are guaranteed to stand the test of time, including Chanel logo earrings and a quilted wallet. For more trend-oriented shoppers, a kind-hearted person has parted ways with her tweed sneakers to give you the chance to snag them at a fraction of the original over-$800 price. Plus, a pretty silk bra top is perfectly aligned with the lingerie-as-outerwear trend that celebrities love to wear on the red carpet. Scroll down to shop the 21 best Chanel items I could find.

Associate Director, Fashion News

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 12 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
