Hi there.
I’m interested in purchasing my first designer bag in a true red color( more blue tone than orange red). I have been eyeing the new small Gucci GG ring bag, but also would consider a Chanel WOC, LV or Prada bag. I really like the Celine box in Red, but the price is really steep!
I am looking for something very classic that will last me forever- I am 49yo.
Any advice?
 
Recently I noticed a red YSL bag on NM website called Uptown Medium, it's got a small, outside pocket with the YSL logo vertically. The red is DEVINE! I'll try to link it

Not sure if you're only looking for small, this one checks off a lot of boxes and that outside pouch is apparently removable!


Wow- love that red- might be a little large for what I want, but it is beautiful!!!
 
I have Gucci loafers in hibiscus red. Great blue-red color! I know they have several bags/styles that come in that color.
Another brand to consider is Mulberry...beautifully made and a bit under the radar. I own the Mulberry Lily and it's a great blue-red color with GHW. Good luck!

Great reds!
On a side note, which do you think is more classic, the Gucci loafer in red, or the Princetown mule? I’m torn between the two.

My vote is the loafer. The mule looks too much like house shoes, especially the fur lined ones they make now. I also support Gucci and their Hibiscus Red. Perfect shade of red with no orange undertones
