Must've been an Hermès from my brother when I was about 13 or 14. It was tiny, orange, and woven. No clue what style it is - I still kept it until today even if I can no longer wear it. He bought me another one of the same style in blue/black wool a couple of months after but it has since been handed down to my niece, which she carries her books and iPod in.
My first handbag was a red patent Chanel 2.55, well actually it was my mom's, she gave it to me 5 or 6 years ago, passed down from her generation, was so excited

My first was a beautiful black B. Makowsky leather bag with steel hardware. I think it has one of the best designs I've ever seen. Very comfortable and the perfect size with an awesome appearance that can be dressed up or down. Unfortunately part of the zipper has separated from the leather, though I still keep it.
A Bottega Veneta in Ebano. I don't know if they carry the style anymore (didn't see it on their website!) but it was a small shoulder bag shaped kinda like an elongated pyramid. It was a high school graduation present from my parents; I still have and use it and it's still gorgeous.
