Write the 5 classic bag for you!!!

[Aerdem]

My personal perfect 5:

Work/travel: Burberry DK88
Top handle: Mary Katrantzou x Bvlgari
Shoulder: Prada Cleo
Event: Bottega Veneta knot clutch
Sport: Prada nylon bum bag

 

[Catash]

Birkin, Kelly, Chanel Classic Flap, Lady Dior and LV Neverfull. Really want to say Speedy but I personally like Neverfull more.

 

[Monaliceke]

My top 5 are based on size and for practicality reasons:

• LV Capucines MM (2015 version, that’s comparable to Birkin 35)
• Kelly Sellier 28
• Delvaux Le Brilliant Mini in box calf (similar to ‘sellier’ style Kelly, stitching outside)
• Chanel Square Mini
• Chanel WOC

 

[880]

Kelly
birkin
bolide/alma
chanel CF/reissue
lady Dior

honorable mention: trim/ Jackie or BV hobo

 

[Rockerchic]

Birkin (check)
Kelly (check)
Speedy (had, sold, had, sold...maybe again one day--I do think a LV has to be in the 5 somewhere but I only have MP, neverful, alma bb righ now)
Classic Flap or Reissue (I prefer reissue--check)

Undecided on 5th--Dior Lady? i have never owned one but I'd like to!;
Goyard tote--love mine (check)
I'd like a Loewe in here... Love the basket bag and the puzzle (check, check) but don't think either are classics
I'd also like a Bottega Veneta in here....but which one? I only have Veneta right now and that was discontinued so....

 

[earthygirl]

Chanel Reissue/classic flap (gotta love a flap bag)
Goyard St. Louis (less durable but more chic than the neverfull)
Loewe puzzle (new but design is so original, effortless and functional)
LV Alma bb (epi line)
Dior LadyDior

Did I skip Hermès?!

 

[papertiger]

No order, sizes as pref

POSH classic: H Kelly (has to be BBK Sellier)
Casual welded to body: H Evie
Smart-casual from work meetings to lunch ou with friends: H Bolide
Ol' school pizzaz for everything: Gucci BTH
Evenings with LBD cocktail-maxi lengths: anything called 'Gucci Broadway' or clutch by Gucci.

I reserve the right to change my 5 whenever though

 

[annapurse]

Hermes Kelly
Dior Samurai
Myriam Schaefer Lord
Chanel classic
Bottega knot clutch

Not many here talk about Myriam Schaefer. I have the Byron bag in blue and cotton (like this); I live how it is made - but almost never use it, not sure why; might be that I don’t know how to style the toile/cotton leather combo. Any hints?

I think, by classic, if you mean instantly recognizable and timeless, I would choose:

Hermès Kelly
Hermès Birkin
Chanel CF
LV Speedy
Lady Dior

That doesn’t necessarily mean that I personally like all of the models listed! I have a strong aversion to the Lady Dior (no offense to anyone!) but it’s still a classic and timeless piece.
