A Gucci black leather bag back I bought at the outlet in Secaucus, NJ in 1995. Very structured, tall, trapezoidal, stiff-ish leather. Just a beautiful bag with a classic shape.

Everyone who's asked me about it has been totally surprised that it's a Gucci because it really doesn't look like a Gucci bag; there's no "G" visible anywhere. The only place with the word Gucci is on the gold clasp at the top of the bag.
 
a small Coach bag my Mom bought me in August, 1983. i hadn't thought of it but Mom did, she turned me on the designer bag world. i still have it, it's among the pieces i posted.
(thanks, Mom:D)
 
I don't have it anymore but it was a great First designer bag, and I got a matching wallet with it. I used the bag for 2 years. I was 18 when I got it so it was age appropriate. It was black and gold Juicy Couture !!!
