Chanel Classic Flap Bag
The iconic Chanel Classic Flap Bag is a timeless piece that is a must-have for any fashion lover. It is available in several sizes, materials, and colors, making it a versatile option that can be worn for date night, casual weekend hangs, and even travel. It’s a classic bag for a reason and will hold its value for the long term. Given the variety in materials, sizes and colors it comes in, you’re sure to find a bag that speaks to your style. My recommendation is to buy pre-2008 as that’s when they stopped using 24 gold carat in the metal.

The Celine Luggage Tote has remained a popular bag for a decade and features a distinctive modern shape and clean lines. It is available in several sizes and colors, and its spacious interior and sturdy construction make it a practical choice for everyday wear.

Carrie Bradshaw made the Dior Saddle Bag a trendy bag 20 years ago and it’s made a comeback in recent years. It features a distinctive shape and can be worn crossbody or as a shoulder bag. It is available in several materials and colors, making it a versatile option. This is my favorite bag on the list because of the unique shape and the variety of prints it comes in. If you love unconventional fashion, this should be on your buy list.
