Every single LV bag except the speedy and the Papillon. All the other styles are so frumpy looking. Also, I dislike the classic Chanel bags (the 2.55) and the Cambon line. And I also don't get the appeal of the YSL Muse, Fendi Spy, and Fendi Bbag.
I am a huge Balenciaga fan. I think their appeal has more to do with their leather and colors than the style. I do love the original motorcycle style, but i will be the first to admit I wish I could get bags made with that leather in a style that doesn't have the trademark horizontal zipper and whiplash handles.

I prefer not to carry any type of bag that is embellished with a logo all over it. Just not my taste.
LV, LV and LV. They are boring, the logo print on them is tacky and I really don't understand all the fuss over them. I went into an LV boutique a couple of times. The SA had to wake me up. I fell asleep on the counter after seeing 6 dozen versions of the LV logo bag/wallet/briefcase/luggage. 
I don't get the appeal of the Paddies either. I picked one up and the sucka weight a ton!
Spy bags look like the handle would impale your hand every time you pick one up!
Chanel is a big snooze for me. Gucci logo bags are the pits (I just plain hate ANY logo items), but I like the leather versions.
Finally, any handbag that's big enough to be mistaken for a piece of overnight luggage.

Its about time someone said it. There are a lot of great designers who are putting out something new and differernt and go unnnoticed becuase the world is so hung up on buying the same designer names over and over just to say that they have one. The fashion world has changed. People are buying the bags because of the name behind them. It doesnt even matter if they (the bags) look good or not anymore!
I just joined this site and since I have been on I have tried to introduce new designers doing something different like Shalon, Kenzo, Be & D, Bracher Emden, and Piero Guidi and they get nagative feedback. Probably because they dont look like the tired old done over and over designs of Hermes, LV, etc.
COME ON PEOPLE DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT. THERES NOTHING HOT ABOUT CARRYING THE EXACT SAME STYLE BAG YOUR GRANDMA CARRIED WHEN SHE WAS COMING UP!
IM SORRY I LIKE CHANGE. CHANGE IS GOOD!

I don't think that's the reason.
I think the problem is, that if you have just joined, people may be slightly supicious if you start posting heavily about unknown/lesser known designers, because they may think it's spam.
Just a heads up!
Actually, my granma had exquisite taste & her bags still look amazing. There is nothing hot about carrying a "different" bag that is crap just to be able to say LOOKATME!! I am soooo different. Carry a bag because you love it, not for what it says about you. LOL people are different & some like old fashioned & some like risky & that difference is HOT!!
I don't like Nylon bags that cost $1,000, tattoo bags & bags that have too much going on like the new LV leopard with the gold & Monogram[except for Polly].
