I don't remember the brand (maybe Guess?), but it was bright red patent leather. It was stolen during a robbery in Mexico at the hotel our family stayed at - I was maybe 12?, and I have wanted the perfect red patent leather bag ever since (have yet to find it). My first luxury bag ever was a Chanel.
Super late reply, but my first designer handbag was the Michael Kors Jet set metallic nickel chain bag. I was fresh out of college and it felt so good to be able to afford it! I have outgrown it, but it will always have a place in my heart because it was my first "high end" handbag purchase.
Apparently when I was a toddler(?), I would strut around the house w/ my little plastic purse, sunglasses on, singing “Pretty Woman”... I think that bag had pink stripes on it.
A white jacquard Kathy Von Zeeland purse with double arm handles, studs, and a bag charm. I loved it a lot, but it was a bit noisy when I carried it around.
