Why everyone's talking about the vanity case-inspired bag

A handy classic typically found on the countertops of our fellow beauty connoisseurs, vanity bags have been more or less used to store cosmetics and toiletries. But now? The style has found a new lease of life among the fashionable crowd.

And why not? With its utilitarian appeal and roomy interiors, the no-fuss style will fit all of our daily essentials. The bonus: This season ushers in a slew of fanciful renditions like the DiorTravel from Dior which comes with an embroidered cannage pattern, or Roger Vivier’s velvet number that dazzles with its Broche crystal buckle.

Below, we highlight some of our favourite vanity cases of the moment.
