THROWBACK // 

Lately, I’ve had Paris on my mind! With a light travel schedule over the next few weeks – outside of a quick trip to the west coast – I think it may be time to plot my next trip!

Question: What are your favorite designer handbags?

Answer: To be honest, I haven’t been as enamored with designer handbags of late. I have been leaning towards newer more affordable handbag lines such as simon miller, staud, and the volon. That being said, Chanel is a favorite of mine, and to me, will continue to hold its value as the most classic handbag. I tend to look to brands that not only have recognizable logos, but also signature shapes. I love my classic single flap as well as my double flap and will probably never let them go. I also love Gucci, but as the house has gone more trend driven, the bags do not feel like long term investment pieces to me (but trust me I still love so many of them). When it comes to designer bags, everything depends on your budget and how timeless you would like to go!
