Your first luxury bag is a milestone. Here is how to make the right choice.
1. Define your use
Work, weekends, evenings or travel? Choose a size and shape that match your daily life.
2. Pick a timeless model
Classics such as the Chanel Classic Flap, the Hermès Picotin or Evelyne, the Louis Vuitton Speedy or a Goyard tote remain desirable for years.
3. Choose a versatile color
Black, tan, grey or beige go with everything and hold their value well.
4. Consider the leather
Grained leathers are more forgiving for everyday use. See our caviar vs lambskin guide.
5. New or pre-owned?
Pre-owned gives access to more models at a better value. Read our condition grades guide.
