I’m a Handbag Collector—These Styles Matter Most Now (and in 2024)

“Living in the city sometimes requires me to carry a ton of stuff, so a tote bag or carryall is essential for every day. I love a canvas tote, but I’m at a point in my life where I need something more elevated. A typical day could include going to the gym, running errands, meeting friends for coffee, and dinner with my husband, so a bag that’s chic and holds all of my stuff is a must. I usually go for something in leather since leather is the most durable, and something pretty minimal so that it’ll go with any outfit in my wardrobe. The Row Park Tote is the sleekest, most minimal, and timeless option, perfect for every day. The Andiamo is beautiful for everyday wear (and a celebrity favorite), and the double-strap feature makes it more versatile. Jacob Elordi’s bag collection is literally insane, and he made me gasp when I saw him carrying that yellow LV Speedy. I’m currently hunting the internet for the perfect vintage Speedy.” — Waller
