CELINE
TEEN TRIOMPHE
I’ve been in love with this bag for like, ever. The teen shape fits the things you need, forces you to leave behind the things you don’t. It’s understand yet totally flashy with that gold clasp. The myriad of colors means I can get one for every mood - it’s just the $4,000 price tag that keeps me from doing so. I’m manifesting owning one in a neutral (like black or blue), and one in a fun hue, like that little butter yellow darling on the left. The good thing is you don’t need to buy these new - there’s enough of them on secondhand sites like Fashionphile or ReBag that you can find your perfect match for around $2,500.
This is the bag that works day, night, and every hour in-between. Can’t wait to own one.
LOUIS VUITTON
CLUNY MINI BB
I don’t even know why I love this so much. I am not the Louis type, it’s way too ostentatious and feels kinda basic when spotted in the wild, but there’s something about this size and shape that I can totally see myself wearing. Feels durable, the top handle makes it ladylike, the brown tones keep it from feeling too delicate. This is the bag I imagine traipsing everywhere with. Going to get it and lean it and be that basic bitch and not even be mad about it. Plus, it’s an off-the-radar enough shape that I don’t feel like I’m just part of the herd. I’m unique, I swear! Just like this bag.

SAINT LAURENT
CASSANDRE TOP HANDLE MINI
I bought this. It’s beautiful. I feel so ladylike, so chic, so beautiful. This is a bag that’s just timeless. The black makes it feel a little more luxe, little more night-time-appropriate. A closet forever piece, every time I pull it out, I remember that moment when I decided to treat myself to something truly insanely expensive just because I deserved it.
CELINE
16 MEDIUM
I bought this too. But I was a little smarter about how I bought it, so I definitely did not spend $5,000+ on this bag. I feel like a million dollars in this bag. It is so elegant, so eye-catching but at the same time so understated. Wish it fit my laptop (it doesn’t, cool girl mis-measurement there)
COST: $3,150 new / ~2,100 used
timeline: when there’s a really good sale and it feels like I get it for a deal.
