Timeless Designer Handbags

As you guys will probably know by now, I am in love with handbags. Ever since I was a very young girl, handbags have been such a large passion of mine. My mother was much like myself; however, she would hunt for bargains, and I loved that. For myself, from a very young age, Vogue showed me a vast world of designer handbags and I needed them all.

As I got older, I did not only want to admire these handbags, but I also had to buy them. I saved up as much money as I could, and I began to invest and build my collection. For this blog post, I thought that I would share with you guys some timeless designer handbags. These are the items that you will still be able to wear with confidence in 20 years’ time and they will still look flawless.

 

 

Chanel Double Flap Bag.

I have to start this post about timeless designer handbags with the Chanel Double Flap Bag. If I cast my mind back, it was this stunning item that started my love with handbags. I would see this all over the internet and it only made me love it and want it more. As the years have rolled by, there have been other Chanel ‘it’ bags, such as the Boy, Trendy and 19 handbags. For me, nothing will ever take the crown away from the wonderful Chanel Double Flap Bag. I have had mine now for around 9 years and it still looks perfect, pairs well with all of my looks and is wonderful. I get countless compliments on this stunning item than anything else in my collection.

 

Hermes Birkin.

Growing up in the noughties, I feel like the Birkin handbag was everywhere. You would see pictures of celebrities like the Olsen twins and Victoria Beckham carrying them. It made me fall in love. As I got older, I saw the price and almost fell off my chair. I vowed at the time that I would never purchase one and truth be told, I never thought that I would be able to afford one. Fast forward 10 years and I now own a couple of Hermes pieces and the Birkin will always be top of the class. I got mine in the classic tan and I adore that handbag so much.

 

Lady Dior Handbag.

When I was younger, the Lady Dior was a bag that I admired, but never really longed to own. That changed as I got older, and I appreciated the history and the craftsmanship of the item. I now own quite a few Lady Dior handbags and each of them is just as special as the last. My two favourites at the moment are my blush pink mini and my larger astrology print one. Two stunning items that are timeless and I know I will be able to pull them out in years to come and they will still be perfect.

 

Gucci Lady Web.

Even though I don’t necessarily think that Gucci in general is a timeless brand, some of their items are. My Gucci Lady Web has been with me now for almost 7 years and I love it just as much now as I always have. It is a tan suede handbag that I pair with so many outfits. I think the thing for me that makes this timeless is the discreet branding. I don’t think that anybody would know that this is Gucci if they weren’t familiar with all of the signature styles. Whenever I want a small tan handbag, I always reach for the Gucci Lady Web.

 

Louis Vuitton Neverfull.

The final item in this post of timeless designer handbags has to be the wonderful Louis Vuitton Neverfull. This was actually the first designer handbag that I ever purchased. I love this just as much today, as I did almost a decade ago when I first purchased this. This is personal preference, but I adore the classic Louis Vuitton monogramme. I think the monogramme combined with the classic tote size of the handbag makes it a truly times handbag that is incredibly versatile. This has been a work handbag of mine that has been on rotation for more years that I care to mention!

 

I hope that you guys enjoyed this round up of some of my timeless designer handbags. I know that a post like this may look very frivolous. These are very expensive items and I know how lucky I am that I can purchase these items. However, I work hard and handbags for me are a fantastic way of celebrating my achievements. Not to mention that some of these items are fantastic items to invest in.

For example, my Hermes Birkin and Chanel Double Flap Bag have only increased in value. For me, I don’t see these items as investments, and I don’t worry about resale value. I purchase these timeless designer handbags because I love them. I would love to hear from you guys on this. Do you agree with the items that I have deemed timeless? Are there any items that you think that I have missed?
