I don’t deny that I love classic handbags. I love the sleek lines, tailoring and the never-go-out-of-style security that when I buy a quality bag, I’m going to carry it for years. So, it was incredibly difficult to narrow down my choices for classic bags for giving. These are some of my favorites and they show that classic isn’t boring!
Gucci Diana Bag
A beautiful classic bag featuring Gucci’s timeless bamboo handles features this striking cobalt blue. I’m completely obsessed with this color and don’t think I will stop for a long time to come. Another season-less color that goes with more than you think! For the special girl who loves classic style but with a fashion forward sensibility, this is the perfect bag! $2,150 at Saks Fifth Avenue
Trendy and stylish tweed is a fabric I have struggled with in the past. I can’t come about its rough and heavy texture, plus, my skin detects when tweed is around as it automatically rejects any tweed article by threats of an endless itch-feast! Regardless, I can’t deny the unique and classic interwoven designs the texture creates. Plus, the overall vibe of tweed calls out Fall/Winter wear, which I’m anxiously waiting on here in South Texas. Two European fashion houses present lovely yarn designs that fit the holiday festive just perfectly.
Red Valentino presents the cross body-bucket designs of the Tweed Drawstring. This cinched accessory arrives adorned in a multicolor pattern of red, white and black colored yarns and the black glossy leather trim makes this piece stand out even more.
We are about the approach the season of sparkle and holiday reds! Whether you can efficiently pull of shades of crimson or if you’re a simple admirer of the trend, designers and artists are giving us their best bags in the hottest reds for the season.
Burberry presents one of its best with the Burberry Leather Mini Bag. Its bowling bag shape is lined in one of the riches naturally grained leathers from the collection. The fire hydrant red along with gold-toned hardware makes this satchel the perfect holiday essential.
The statement trench coat. The statement check bag. Two items that are synonymous with the Burberry label. The Burberry Belted Hobo takes both of these items and wraps them up (literally) in one amazing bag.
The Burberry Prorsum collections have provided us with some edgy British chic in trench coats with a twist, spiked and over-sized plaids and studs, bold design elements and heels all with a nod to the British classics. This adorable clutch is no exception to the over-the-top styling. While we’re in the midst of a sweltering summer and white is perfectly fine to carry, this bag ships AFTER Labor Day. If the proper, etiquette abiding, tea-loving English say it’s okay to carry white in the Fall, then it really must be true!
I’ve never been a huge fan of Burberry. Plaid is definitely not one of my favorite fashion statements. I don’t wear plaid nor do I own any accessory that’s plaid. What’s weird is that I’m half English, and I don’t even like plaid. If you know fashion, you know Brits love their plaid. My family does, I on the other hand despise it.
However, when it comes to classic, iconic, beautiful handbags Burberry is up there with the best. The company always makes handbags that are so sophisticated looking and would look with any outfit you put effort into. By that I mean, when you dress up of course.
With a New Year comes a new look for one of Burberry’s most carefree tote bags. What’s not to love about the Check Packable Totes? As soon as they hit the market a while back, they made the perfect fit to whatever category of Bagista its owner fell into.
The moms, students, traveler and store hoppers all fell fond of this lightweight, minimal maintenance tote bag. The double flat handles, flexible nylon lining and the roomy adjusting draw stings are still in its original place, but it’s the featured check pattern that gives this tote something new to rave about.
Burberry converts its check classic plaid to brush strokes plaid giving it a fresh new look that arrives just in time for Spring. The vibrant oversized strokes are sure to compliment your daily look, something most oversized designer patterns fail to do.
