4 Designer Classic Bags You Should Have …

4 Designer Classic Bags You Should Have …

3. Dior Black Quilted Patent Lady Dior Bag

Yet another stylish, timeless classic.  This Dior bag looks stunning and it can be worn with anything, which makes it a fantastic choice for your designer bag collection.  It comes with golden hardware as well, in case you are looking for something dressier.

For the price of $1800 you are getting one of the most fabulous bags out there.  And by the way, the beautiful classic Lady Dior bag comes in white patent leather too for those hot summer days and vacations (sigh)…

4. Hermes Birkin Bag

This is the bag you have seen on the most stylish celebrities.   Although this bag is definitely not my style, I can see why women want to shell out $6.000.00 – $15.000.00, depending on the material, for a bag like this.

Located in Paris, Hermes issues only 5 (!!!) Birkins a week – the waiting lists are endless, of course, and that’s what makes them even more desirable.

Want to learn more about Hermes Birkin bag?  Check out the history of this legendary bag at 101Suite.com.

Well, Ladies, these are the 4 Most Stylish and Most Wanted Designer Bags in the world.  Hope this must-have selection made your life easier!

Of course, some sources (like “The Little Black Book of Style”) suggest Gucci Jackie. O bag as yet another must-have classic, but I just did not think this particular bag was fabulous enough…

Should it too be on this Classic Designer Must-Have Bags list?  I would love to hear your opinion, dear Fashionistas…

    Dear Maria,

    You are absolutely right, designer bags, especially these iconic 4 are pretty expensive. And the worst part is that they never are and never will be on sale…

    However, if you are as crazy about having one of those bags as I am, you might consider starting saving. Seriously.

    $700 sounds like a lot of money for a bag. But if you put aside $5 every day – you will have enough money for your dream bag in just 4 month and 2 weeks or so…

    I think it’s totally worth it! Every day we spend much more on coffee and sweets and little silly stuff we do not need or even like for that matter…

    That’s the way I tackle the financial side… I wonder what tactics you guys have for getting the things you love?

    I love my purses and I love finding new great ones that will hold lots of stuff…but I’m just not into spending more than $25-$30 on one! I usually can find good ones at Target! :)

    Oh, dear Diana, Target and H&M are the best!

    Designer bag, shoes, cloths, sunglasses..et cetera..all tempting! But then again, there’s always something that “fit” for everyone. It will come back to us, do we have it for our own satisfaction or just to show up? I ♥ that Birkin bag, but I know it’s not “for me”. Now I’m saving my Starbuck budget for 35″ LV Speedy that, of course, long and lasting till I could have enough saving to buy another designer whatever that I want. Meanwhile, I’m just happy as I am to use Guess handbag that more affordable. It will stop me for feeling guilty of spending 2 months of my daughter tuition worth on an LV ;)

    Those are wise words, Millie. We should buy expensive things only when we feel that they will work for us in terms of function and aesthetics. We should not buy them only for status.

    Love the idea about saving coffee money for a luxury purchase. Will try it. :D

    ohmygawsh!! the chanel 2.55 bag looks ah-mazing!! so tempting yet soo expensive!!

  14. 14 Gravatar Icon Olga Moore, 07/24/09 at 2:04 pm

    to Joanne,

    I know!!! Isn’t it the coolest bag ever??? I am so dying to get one of these… The least expensive one costs around $2700….

  15. 15 Gravatar Icon millie, 08/9/09 at 7:52 pm

    Olga! Guess what… Silly stuff has turned into 40″ LV Speedy ;)
    After months of saving and was ready to purchase, I spent sometime to get it with the very best price. LV stores, online stores, every single day as the exchange rate affected the price! Until I found that an old friend was visiting Paris! Gotcha… €475 for 40″ LV Speedy which let me save almost $150 of the selling price at LV stores in my country and $100 of online stores selling price.
    What I’m trying to share is if we could have waited for months on saving project, it certainly worth the wait to find a way to buy it with the very best rate.
    Now, give us advise on designer classic briefcase to go to work with ;)

  16. 16 Gravatar Icon Olga Moore, 08/9/09 at 10:53 pm

    to Millie:

    Yay!!!! Congratulations on your first LV speedy!!! :)) I am SO happy for you! That waiting did pay off, huh? I also waited for about 3 months to get my first LV in the US and save around 30% of the price! :)

    As for the briefcase… I never encountered a piece that was really worth going for… Do you need it for your laptop or just papers and stuff?

    Congrats once again! :)

    Hey Millie,

    How is your Speedy doing? :)

    I just wanted to share with you a link to super cool briefcases from Longchamp: http://www.longchamp.com/

    They are in E-Shoppin/Women/Handbags/Briefcases section. I very much liked the red and the brown ones.

    Hope you like them too! :)

  18. 18 Gravatar Icon Tavia, 10/14/09 at 1:33 pm

    I don’t like any of them:( Maybe my style is strange. I don’t care if a bag it’s expensive or not, made by a famous designer or not. I just know that I must like it:)

  19. 19 Gravatar Icon Sheila, 10/15/09 at 1:31 am

    Tavia,
    Aww. Really? Not even one of these? What are your favorite bags?
