This is my one day when I retire list. I feel that once I'm not working anymore, I can get the bags I really want, instead of practical bags. So here goes:
1) LV Speedy - I know everyone and their brother thinks this is the most comfy bag ever, but the hand-held just doesn't work for my lifestyle.
2) BV Veneta large in black - I have one Veneta in large and it's just a tad to small for my current lifestyle, so when I get the black it has to be the maxi. But I prefer how the large looks on me.
3) Chanel jumbo flap lamb navy - I think the lamb says it all; I just don't like the look of caviar. Also I feel that I need another 20 years on me to really work that Chanel.
4) Anything medium sized YSL red - I love YSL, love their reds, but right now only the big bags work for me. So I'm dreaming of a Muse 2 in the smaller size in luscious red leather, maybe even red patent!
5) Le Pliage - this will be my seasonal ginormous throw-around.

In no particular order:
1) LV Damier Ebene Galliera - I love the Galliera style but not the vachetta that comes with the monogram. When I get it, its gotta be the Damier Ebene with that gorgeous red interior.
2) Chanel 2.55 - Girl's gotta be classy and fabulous right? Enough said.
3) Prada Fairy Satchel - Gorgy bag but the ink running on it made me scared to get it. I hope they keep coming out with amazing bags like this.
4) Balenciaga GSH Black - I adore this bag so much. I don't care if it weights 50 pounds, I will carry it everywhere with pride. I need it.
5) Rebecca Minkoff Morning After Clutch - Gotta have the silver hardware on this, but I need my crossbody bag. This bag does it for me whether its day around town or out at karaoke with some friends.

1) Hermes Bolide 37 in Rouge H Fjord PHW - classic and my absolute dream bag!
2) Mulberry Ledbury in oak Darwin - I have one and, although it is my least expensive bag, it is my favourite and so perfect and makes me happy every time I carry it (and it is worry free as it can be made water proof and is very sturdy)
3) Prada F/W 2005 black grommeted handbag (don't know the style name, but I sure love grommeted Prada, as it is modern but with a classic twist)
4) Alexander McQueen large grape Novak - I have this bag and it is sooooo feminine! It's a classic style, and it holds it shape even if you stuff it.
5) Hermes Barenia Plume 32 PHW - a dream bag which I'm not sure even exists, but I'd sure love to have one.

No LV? If I could only have five (and DH would think that outrageous) I'd want an LV Speedy 25, a Coach leather, a Coach siggy ... wow I can't even think of five that I'd think of as classic and could actually use!
If I didn't care about price/status/usefulness - LV Speedy 25, 19th century 'reticule' that wouldn't even hold all the keys I have to carry, 30's 'frame/clasp top' that would barely hold my wallet, $5 fringed hippy shoulder bag I had when I was a teen and still miss, $70 'Baci' (basically no-name) bag that had the perfect inside organisation 'pour moi' that I've never found again at any price (too bad it fell apart after a few months).

1 Hermes Rouge H Fjord Bolide 37 PHW - my ultimate HG, perfect for every occasion
2 McQueen grape large Novak - for evenings or chic daywear
3 Mulberry choc Bayswater - great tote your life around university
4 a black Prada, possibly one of the new bowler/Bolide style bags
5 tricky...a party/going out bag (Mulberry smudged grey leopard Charlie) or a nice tote (Tod's shade, BV cabat...) or perhaps my beloved Mulberry Mitzy hobo that holds the world and weighs next to nothing - not sure of this one yet
I actually own the Bayswater, the McQueen Novak and the Bolide (though not in Fjord), the Mitzy and the Charlie, and the Prada is on my list to buy next. I have 14 designer bags, but most of them are a repeat style of the others I have or not classic enough to make it to this list...
