The iconic chain strap of the Chanel 2.55 (every woman’s dream bag) is the inspiration behind the luxury french fashion house’s latest range of eyewear and sunglasses. 

Every mum relies on a good pair of sunnies for those early morning school runs (sun shining of course) and this Autumn look no further than Chanel’s new eyewear collection.

The collection is made up of a variety of styles – from oversized square frames to retro cats eyes and aviators, all embossed with the statement chain detail.

We particular love the colour palette – light grey, brandy taupe and blue give them a fresh look and are a great alternative to classic black and tortoiseshell. Mr Largerfeld has also chosen one of our favourite celebrity mums, Claudia Schiffer to front the campaign.

The collection is out now and prices start at £277.
