Princess Kate just proved she is the ultimate vintage Chanel queen - we're envious
The mother of Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis looked incredible at the Brighton & Hove Albion Stadium to watch the rugby, rocking her Chanel bag
The Princess of Wales lit up the stadium on Saturday as she watched an incredible rugby match between England and Australia in aid of the Rugby World Cup. We adored the mother-of-three's incredible outfit choice - a sleek black suit, frilled blouse, and of course, rocking her new blonde mane, but twisted back in a chic, half-up, half-down style. Royal fans also spied her super stylish handbag - a vintage Chanel bag that the royal has only worn a handful of times. The dazzling bag is quite the collector's piece, and we are so here for it - we always enjoy getting a glimpse of it when she brings it out.
Kate's Chanel bag is known as the 'Classic Square Mini Flap Bag', and it's made in the ever-desirable black leather with the 24kt gold hardware colour combination. Prince William's wife has only been seen with this bag a handful of times during her royal career, proving it's one of her most special bags in her collection.
