Personally my 5 favorite brands:

1. Goyard (their pattern is just breathtaking)
2. Proenza Schouler (although I don't own anything from PS, their bags are just crazy pretty imo)
3. Balenciaga (mainly their classic motorcycle styles, the classic Work is probably my favorite bag in my collection)
4. Céline (great designs)
5. Hermès (because I'm just obsessed with the Birkin bag and their togo leather)

Vintage and rare bags. Name is not necessary important as long as there is quality leather.

^^ this. But I have trouble finding high quality vintage bags. Internet's a good source, but you can't search "show me high quality leather" on eBay ;)


Right now, my favorites are
1. Hermes, for leather quality and lovely scarves - but way, way too expensive
2. Dooney and Bourke, for amazing vintage leather and perfect equestrian chic
3. Kate Spade, for trend-setting cuteness and daring, wearable design... if I had a million dollars lying around I'd probably buy 1 Birkin and half the Kate Spade catalog for my "fun" purses... so many goofy clutches...
4. Chanel, for chain bags. I love chains on bags.

A few indie shops in Etsy have caught my eye. It's a risk to spend $500 sight unseen, or I'd have sprung for an oversized calfskin envelope tote several times over.

Honorable mention to Gucci, specifically for their backpacks with bamboo handle. Very specifically... I hate their prints.
