LV monogram - don't understand the obsession, they are EVERYWHERE!!
Goyard - just don't get it, its the same print on all bags, what is innovative about that?
Gucci - canvas interiors, really? I like their bags but each time I go to the store the canvas interiors stop me, I just can't with it.
All monogram - LV, Gucci, Coach, MK, etc. Can't stand them. They are ugly. Unless they are done in leather and subtle instead of canvas.

The expensive ones! Love bags, but I also love having money. Also, out here in the country, even my Coach and Kate Spade get lots of (mostly unwanted) attention. Anything logo or obvious designer is out of the question. Never say never, but I feel confident ruling out Chanel, LV, Gucci, Hermes, Tom Ford, MCM.
I agree here, I quite dislike all the logo bags. To me they just look cheap and tacky. Right now I am actually really tired of seeing all the Louis Vuitton canvas bags because it feels like they are everywhere! Regardless, I think these logos are ok in small amounts, like in wallets and agenda covers etc. If this makes any sense?
Personally, I would never buy a Birkin, to me it is quite boring and not worth the price. Also, I'm not a big fan of Chloe, Michael Kors, Mulberry, Proenza Schouler, Fendi, Dior, Gucci or Marc Jacobs.
And I can't stand too big bags. I really hate the Givenchy Nightingale And LV Alma in big size, even though they look really adorable in the smallest sizes. And while I really love Celines luggage tote (and are planning to buy the nano one) I somehow find myself cringing for the Celine phantom and trapeze.
Also, I usually hate all the yellow/orange/pink bags, the ones way too colorful and with ugly color combinations. I know that many disagree with me in this, I have realized that many of you are looking the ''pop of colour'' with bright bags, and thats okey with me. Everyone has their own preferences, and that is a good thing, a bright bag just doesn't sit with my style and is not ''me'', so to speek. My style is more like a classy and simple black+grey+white chic meets a rock'n'roll girl, and with a hint of feminine gothic lady.. So the only real color for me would be red, preferably a dark one..
Oh, and almost forgot, am not really a friend of a white/beige/brown bags either. And now this whole post sounds like I hate everything! Hahaa, unfortunately that is not the case, there is just way too many bags Í would love to have, sigh. Maybe someday...
EDIT: I had to come and edit, one important thing. I hate all the cheap looking bags, all the fakes are horrible, how would you even wear one? And material is very important thing, fine leather is gorgerous, but all the plastic/canvas/simply other than leather bags just makes me sick, I don't like them at all.

I liked reading your criteria! But what bags and designers do you like? lol I am trying to figure it out nowI agree here, I quite dislike all the logo bags. To me they just look cheap and tacky.

I won't buy another TB bag because of her quality issues.
As far as design, Proeza Schouler PS1s are not it for me. At all.

Hah, thanks starbunny, I don't know if this goes a little bit offtopic, but I do love Givenchy (mainly) and recently bought the medium antigona in black leather. Love the structured feel of it and it looks very edgy and classy at the same time. Also loving Balenciaga and Saint Laurent.
Prada is very classy and the saffiano leather tote is on my wishllist. Would die to have the chanel boy bag (especially theese two boys took my breath away: http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTIwMFgxNjAw/z/VtQAAOxyrrpTgZ4B/$_57.JPG and http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/NDgwWDY0MA==/z/SkkAAOSwirZTvGq3/$_12.JPG). Wouldn't mind to get the Chanel flap bag either.
Right now crushing on Alexander Wand and Alexander McQueen aswell. Have a secret wish to get a Louis Vuitton Alma BB/PM in epi leather (color would be fuchsia) and Monceau BB in monogram vernis, amarante: http://uk.louisvuitton.com/eng-gb/products/monceau-bb-lg-monogram-vernis-006119#M91581
I wanna have Valentino rockstud bag with matching heels, preferably dark red or completely black.
Also planing to buy the Celines nano luggage in black next, it is just so beautiful. I love the luggage bag and even though the phantom reminds me of it, I don't like it because of the ''wings'' or whatever they are called..
Mostly want my bags in black, but also like red, burgundy and grey (and small amounts of white). Evening bags/smaller bags can be more colorful and ''fun'' for my liking. Patent leather has stolen my heart, details are also important and silver is better than gold..
