Classic yet modern.

LOVE this one!

The Von Holzhausen tote - wow. A real stunner. Very Celine-esque. Anyone know how their vegan leather runs? I wish I had somewhere to wear that pretty bag.

And on the price question - I’m not OP but I love handbags and jewelry. I would just say everyone has their vice. I think it’s odd that people sent $40K+ on cars, but to each their own.

I love this one.

This is the only one in this thread that I love. What a great color!

Go for the $160 bag, pp. What bag?

I’ve been posting the recent links that are more modestly priced. While I earn nearly $200k, I can’t stomach spending more than $400 on a bag...and I prefer to keep it under $200.

I’m looking at this one in a navy blue stripe so I can use it all year around. I’m a teacher and this seems extravagant to me but I just paid off my credit cards and I have the cash for this.

I like this but it kind of reminds me of a Birkin knockoff.

OP is still going to work.

I really like that in marmalade or evergreen. Pity I have nowhere to carry it.

Thought I posted a navy one. They come in millions of colors (Longchamp), and it’s better quality than Barrington.

You could use this year round.

The YSL Niki is currently my favorite bag. It comes in several different colors (I have the fog but also love the dark legion red for fall or black for a more classic look) and leathers. The straps change so you can wear it as a shoulder or crossbody. It also comes in a tote if that’s what you prefer.

I also really like the Bally bag the first PP posted.
