Stop Everything—We've Found Vintage Chanel Shoes for £175

Owning a piece of Chanel is one of the best decisions a fashion girl can make. Possibly even managing to trump the feeling of a new car or a new home, buying and wearing a piece by Chanel is a feeling like no other. Of course, a designer bag like the 2.55 flap bag is basically the holy grail of accessories, but there's no denying the shoes have forever been a go-to.

Known for its signature styles, Chanel is the proud owner of the most iconic ballet pumps, famous slingbacks and more recently, trainers. Naturally, all the key styles form a waiting list, and as soon as they drop they inevitably sell out. But there's a way to get your hands on them, and it's all about looking to sites for preowned styles. This is why we've scoured the likes of Vestiaire Collective, Farfetch and Rokit for the best vintage finds. You'll have to be quick, though, because they're all one-offs in select sizes, so once they're gone, they're gone!

Shop the best vintage Chanel shoes and feel happier knowing you're being more conscious about your fashion buys. If that isn't reason enough, we don't know what is.

Style Notes: The two-toned slingbacks sold out so fast that when they launched they naturally racked up a waiting list. Luckily, you can still get them pre-loved and they'll still go with all your outfits. 

The pointier the better with these slingback beauties.
