Back to school is fast approaching and even though I haven’t been going to class for quite a while now I still like to stock up on new fashions to transition to the new season.
Investing in classic handbags is always advisable. They elevate your entire look and never go out of style. It means you are ok with spending a bit more on them but isn’t it even better when you can score them on sale?!

What I love about all these bags is they look so luxurious but the prices are super affordable. The rich colours really work for fall. I can totally see these while wearing these plaid capes, dark denim and a great boot. Of course they would look just as good with a suit or business casual. That is what makes them the best bags to own.
All the styles I picked are fairly generous in size. Still easy to carry but at the same time they can handle a few files from work or a laptop.
The other great thing about all of these bags is that they aren’t necessarily seen as an investment bag. I still can’t wrap my head around spending $1000 or more on a bag. I have been stalking some of these investment bags on designer consignment sites like here and here but just haven’t been able to pull the trigger. Part of it is definitely the exchange and duty but even before that these bags are still close to the $1000 mark even though they are used. I think I am going to stick with the classic bags on sale instead.
What is your go to classic bag?
