Every now and then, the fashion world delights in reviving a cult classic handbag. With the current craze for all things Y2K, it's no surprise that Balenciaga's iconic Noughties 'City Bag' has reclaimed its status as the ultimate It-Girl accessory. The tote has even found its way into the wardrobes of the royals, with Princess Maria-Olympia of Greece and Denmark among its star-studded fanbase.

The 28-year-old showcased her designer bag in a recent Instagram post, where the model posed for the camera with the coveted accessory casually draped over her arm. Olympia donned a beige iteration of Balenciaga's 'Le City' bag . Crafted from textured leather, the medium tote features a metal zipper and a slew of studs inspired by vintage biker jackets.



The bag is finished with two top stylish braided handles and a long, removable strap so that the accessory can be carried in-hand or draped over the shoulder. Olympia completed her chic look with a simple black sweater, while her blonde bob was styled into effortless soft waves. The Dolce and Gabbana model kept her makeup natural and radiant with a bronze eye, glowing complexion and a glossy lip.

Another snap depicted the bag, which retails at £2,090, stuffed with a baguette from Depuis 1980 as it rested on the royal's lap. Olympia captioned the post: "It's in le bag @balenciaga." Fellow model Damian Hurley flocked to the comments section to show his approval of Olympia's newest designer purchase.
