A few years ago there was such a huge hype and excitement about bags that were hot at that particular moment and designers such as Balenciaga's Nicholas Ghesquire, Gucci and Fendi created the amazing bags of those particular season but as time went by those bags started to fade into darkness and become outdated and that's when I learned one of my biggest fashion lessons that IT bags were like explosions, they blow up and leave ashes behind.
IT bags don't work well with every outfit, especially that chic Yves Saint Laurent inspired pantsuit you love and with a classic it would work wonders.
Designers and retailers are starting to create handbags that will be in a woman's wardobe for years and a bag that will stand the test of time. Fendi started a revolution in their Spring/Summer 2009 collection of women buying classic bags with their leather stitched bag which they reinvent each season which is absolutely incredible because you won't have to buy a handbag every season instead you can indulge in a gorgeous Aldo stiletto or an affordable one at Foschini or Woolworths. Nine West, Guess and Lorenzi are starting to follow that classic bags trend.
If money is not a problem invest in a brown and tan Louis Vuitton tote or follow one of my favourite fashion icons Victoria Beckham with a Hermes Birkin bag that will make your frenemies envious as you go to the V&A Waterfont with it in your hands, or you could simply buy a Nine West, Country Road or even Woolworths as long as it's not going to have an expiry date in terms of trends.
Girls I say buy a bag that you'll love forever instead of what is IN this season and OUT the next one.
