Designer Bag Review

A few notes before I dive in..

I know that this topic won’t be for everyone, and I always debate sharing stuff like this... but so many of you have told me that it’s so helpful to hear honest opinions when making such a big purchase and I’ve also heard from so many of you that you love seeing one bag styled multiple ways so you can really get an idea for how you’d wear the piece. I decided a blog would be a better format for this topic and I hope that it’s super helpful for anyone who’s looking into the category!! Let’s dive in!

Gucci Dionysus GG Supreme Mini Bag:

My first designer bag purchase & I still love it! I wear it all the time- it’s the perfect size. The neutral color goes with pretty much any outfit & the hardware is a pewter metal color, so it doesn’t feel like it clashes with gold or silver! Personally, I don’t like to wear it as a crossbody because it feels too long-I wear it as shoulder bag. I wanted to mention that in case you were wanting to wear it as a crossbody and shoulder bag.

If you’re looking for a small, crossbody bag, I love this one! I think it’s so chic and I have gotten so much wear out of it. I often get asked what I can fit in this bag.. well, not a lot! There’s room for a few smaller items, but the main thing I want to note is that your phone won’t fit. It doesn’t bother me much- I’m usually holding my phone or I'll put it in my jeans or jacket pocket.

This is definitely one of my most worn bags! The color is perfect because it’s not a stark white, but it also doesn’t have a strong yellow undertone- it goes with everything. The size of the bag is great & fits so much! Even though the top doesn't close, it's not a major issue for me and would highly recommend this bag. Overall, I love this bag and I feel like I’ve been reaching for it SO much!

I purchased this bag in Italy and it was my first Prada purchase! Because I purchased it in Italy, I was actually able to save quite a bit on it! I have absolutely loved this bag. The shape is so unique and it fits a lot, I love that it has a shoulder strap that is removable as well.

Sadly, this specific color is no longer available, but I still wanted to talk about this bag- it’s been such a great purchase! It's still available in other colors & you may be able to find this color on a resale site! The size is perfect, strap is adjustable, and keeps your items secure.

When I got this bag, I thought it would be my “everyday bag” but I went through a phase where I wasn’t reaching for it as much because it was a little boxier/clunkier than I was expecting... Well, this past winter, I re-fell in love with it and ended up reaching for it so much! I think it just has a more professional feel compared to my other bags, but I love i

This is my newest purchase and one that I am SO excited about. I absolutely love this bag for more of a spring/summer vibe. The raffia is gorgeous and gives it a beachy feel, but the hardware and leather strap really elevates it- perfect mix of dressy/casual.

If you are in the market for a tote - I love this option! Goes from beach to work and everything in between. The color is neutral and goes with almost any outfit. Love that it is more structured, too!
