17 Timeless And Best Quality Designer Bags To Invest In

October 22, 2021

Are you looking to invest in a designer bag but don’t know where to start? This list of the best quality designer bags has got you covered.

best quality designer bags

A designer handbag is much more than a luxury fashion item these days, it is a necessity. The high-quality fabric, advanced hardware, and intense precision within every stitch are reasons why the luxury handbag market is expected to skyrocket to 94B (yes, with a B) by 2028.

Because though the best designer handbags are quite expensive, you ultimately save so much money in the long run by not having to replace a lackluster handbag several times a year. As someone who used to go cheap, I spent more over time without getting very much. Investing in high-quality items winds up being just that, an investment rather than a purchase.

After reading up on these best quality designer bags you will understand which investment is right for you so that you can invest in your own gorgeous piece.

This post is all about the best quality designer bags to invest in.

The Best Quality Designer Bags To Invest In

1. Best Chanel Bags To Invest In

Classic Flap Bag

Boy Bag

Chanel 19

Deauville

Timeless, elegant, and featuring avant-garde artistic work, Chanel designer handbags are more than worth the money. Using the highest quality buttery soft lambskin or caviar leather, these bags have a solid reputation for remaining durable and quality-rich throughout the years of consistent use.

The best part is that Chanel is so popular and loved that there are always different deals available that you can take advantage of. Be aware that Chanel did recently implement a new restriction on the number of bags that you can purchase annually. However, with the imperishable designs, replacement under a year is something you undoubtedly will never have to worry about.

Some argue that the Chanel 19 is not a timeless option. We disagree. What do you think?

2. Dior Handbags

Lady Dior

Saddle Bag

Book Tote

Possessing a massive designer handbag collection ranging from the Lady Dior, Saddle to the Book Tote, you can be confident that your handbag expectations will be exceeded with this brand. Dior has become immensely famous for its dynamic collections filled with rich leather and embroidered fabrics.

Though Dior has a strong reputation for its standard hues such as grey, black, and nudes. They ensure that there is something for everyone by incorporating an entire array of sticking color-crafted designs as well. This means that whatever style you are going for in a designer handbag, there is a good chance that Dior has it.

3. Most Popular Louis Vuitton Bags

Neverfull MM

Speedy 25

Pochette

Whether you are hardcore into luxury fashion or not, there is a good chance you have heard about Louis Vuitton. As a brand that is fully adaptative to its customers’ desires, Louis Vuitton delivers impeccable quality.

Louis bags can be used for decades without signs of diminishing, and they are even cheaper than most designer bags. So, if you want a handbag that is slightly more budget-friendly, durable, and retains its innate value, then LV is the way to go.

4. Top Gucci Bags

Marmont

Dionysus

Ophidia

This list is not complete without a Gucci highlight. Gucci is renowned for its exclusivity, prestigiousness, and ability to deliver an unparalleled sense of luxury fashion status. The brand maintains its Luxe Digital spot on the top 15 most popular luxury brands for four consecutive years now.

Gucci stands out from the rest due to its prevalence of intertwining different cultures, preferences, and luxury fashion seasonal trends into their handbag designs. This means if you truly want to bask in authenticity, sophistication, and ultimate quality, then Gucci is a heavily endorsed option to invest in.

5. YSL Handbags

YSL bags are stunning. These bags elevate any outfit, even a casual tracksuit can be dressed up with a YSL handbag. The quality of the handbags is superior. The beautiful matelassé leather bags such as the camera bag and the envelope bags are almost as classic as the Chanel quilt. You cannot go wrong with a YSL bag.

Don’t Just Shop, Invest.

There is one aspect that still stands strong regardless of what trends might arise – quality. Quality is forever the leading factor in what brands are worth investing in. Overall, there are tons of different designer handbag brands out there. That is why the designers listed above made it to this list in the first place. Brands like these have nailed down the formula of keeping quality bulletproof with every piece they come out with.

In summary, I’ll leave you with this: Whatever you decide to go with is entirely up to you. From neutral tones to full-blown color popping, you can choose and wear whatever you want to. And at the end of the day, regardless if you choose Chanel, LV, or any other of the best designer handbags in between, as you go with a durable one that you love and truly accentuates your personality, that’s where the real value lies.

I miss Clearwater so much! It is definitely my happy place. Whenever things get overwhelming, coming back to this town has a way of helping me re-center. The walks along the water are so grounding, beachy outfits, yoga on the beach in the morning, fresh fish for almost every meal. What are your favorite ways to re-center?

Grateful for another sunny day ☀️ what are you grateful for today? 

I’ve been starting my days with a gratitude journal and it has really reframed things for me. Reframing the seemingly mundane things from “I have to” to “I get to” is super effective at switching up my mood in an instant. 
It is easy to be happy on vacation but it’s most important to maintain that sense of gratitude on the day to day.
