Which handbag have you gotten the most compliments on?

I just bought this bag and people break their necks to compliment it - D&B Alto Evelina. Only $450 on sale. Nothing is said when I wear my most expensive bags (black Chanel & Prada).

I really think it's about visual impact. The brighter the color or more unique the shape, the more compliments my bag gets. Or do I seem more approachable for comment with a bag at a price point most can afford. hmmmmm....

I love the color and shape of your D&B Alto Evelina :heart:


I agree with you the brighter the color, the more compliments the bag gets. I collect D&B and LV. The red D&B gets the most compliment, and 2nd most is my blue LV Saint-Jacques.
 
My Kate Spade Cobble Hill Little Devin. I've got the blue one here.

70s stuff and saddlebags are generally popular this fall so I'm going to play around and style outfits after this bag. :smile:

I have a Marc Jacobs Wellington in the most beautiful shade of pink. Every time I wear it, numerous people compliment the bag and ask questions about it.

Most complimented are always bags with no logos. And they all were under 50.00. One was a crossbody from H&M another a tiny brahmin with orange and brown croc design. I did just purchase these.

I have several bags that get complimented frequently...almost every time I carry them LOL I don't buy bags for compliments though. I buy what I like. I have noticed that many of my more colorful bags get complimented largely on color. And bags that have more details (studding, etc) also tend to get compliments.

Two of my oldest bags (both LV) get tons of compliments. One is the LV monogram Tambourine bag I got in 2003. People compliment it on the style (super cute small bag). The next is from 2005. It is the LV Mini Riberia bag in Damier Ebene. It often gets complimented (another super small cute bag). My 2010 LV Alma BB in vernis leather always gets complimented on the color. The color of that bag is called Pomme d'Amore (a beautiful red color).

Other bags that get tons of compliments are my Stella McCartney Mini Backpack (a dark grayish color with the chain detailing). It gets complimented frequently on the styling of the bag. People love the chain detailing on the Stella McCartney bags. My sister said if she could steal one bag from my collection it would be the Stella McCartney. She borrows it frequently :P My Valentino Glamlock in a burnt orange color gets lots of compliments too both on color and style. People really like the large studding on this bag. My half-moon Valentino bag in red gets lots of compliments on color and the smaller studding around the bag. My Alexander Wang Rockie gets complimented often on style (all the studding along the bottom draws the eyes). And my Balenciaga Classic Envelope Clutch gets lots of compliments on the color (color is Mangue which is a yellow with orange undertones).

And for more simple bag, my Chloe bags get lots of compliments...all of them. I have the Mini Marcie Saddlebag in tan, a Mini Marcie Satchel in black (this was a limited edition size), and a small Faye in neutral suede (can't remember the color name). These are all more simple bags without studding but they get lots of compliments too.
