The ever-popular small Nile clutch by Chloé has been a popular staple in every blogger’s closet from earlier this spring and all throughout summer. With its geometric shape and wide availability of colors, this handbag can match anything in a woman’s closet from spring to summer and can still transition beautifully into fall and winter.

Although the Nile comes in a variety of sizes, the small Minaudiére is still a staggering $1,450. Because this handbag has been in such demand, I set off to find a quality bag that’s similar, and behold: I’ve found this gorgeous Chloe-inspired bag for just $62.30!

This gorgeous designer-inspired bag features split cow leather and a microsuede (synthetic) interior, which may not be as buttery-soft as the real Chloe, but can definitely feel luxurious compared to most synthetic handbags around the same price point. I love how this bag feels like it can withstand quite a bit of a beating without encountering rips or dents. It’s also worth mentioning that the stitching is pretty secure and reassures me that I won’t be seeing any running threads.

The hardware is far from flimsy and fragile. The handle has quite a bit of weight to it, which adds to the high-dollar, “I-paid-thousands-for-this” look and feel. It’s really surprising that this handbag is less than $50, as you can tell there is an amazing attention to detail and quality as well as design. Even the handles feature the same carefully-placed decorative indentations that match the original Chloe’s perfectly.
Pros
- Price ($44.63)
- Genuine Italian leather and suede
- Quality hardware
- Perfect stitching
Cons
- Does not ship from the USA
- Slow shipping
- Poor packaging

Although my bag arrived intact with no cosmetic blemishes or damage, the packaging was extremely poor and very insecure. The bag was stuffed with an air-filled plastic pillow, covered in a dust bag and wrapped tightly in bubble-wrap. Outside of this, it was packaged in a plastic mailer bag and then mummified in several layers of duct-tape. It didn’t arrive in a cardboard box at all!
Although shipping took about 2-3 weeks, I can’t really complain about the wait since shipping was completely free.

I don’t have at the moment but I will keep my eye out!
Love the post. I know this is old post and all but I would love to purchase this bag from the seller you mentioned (yeeSupsei). I have a question tho, is the circle handle secure? Or loose? I purchased a similar bag somewhere else and wasn’t happy because the handle won’t stay in place.

Do you mean the handle unscrews itself? I’ve been the same bag from 2 different sellers and had one unscrew itself and the other completely secure. I bought a tiny screwdriver from the $1 store and twisted the loose screw in tight and I don’t have that problem anymore 🙂
