The Best BITW We Spotted from NYC to Miami As the Year Wound Down

Hermès galore, Dior and more!

Bags In The Wild Miami NYC 1 of 30

The end of the year often feels like a blur. From the hustle and bustle of travel to the last-minute holiday rush, December is one of the busiest times of the year. In cities like New York and Miami, this means an influx of people and an excess of (the already heavy) traffic. For us, this brings a unique bit of joy, as foot traffic is also up this time of year, and you know what that means: bag spotting!

We spent some time during the holidays out and about in both Miami and New York, which consistently wowed us this year. From Upper East Side Birkins and Kellys to both Classic and trendy Diors, and even an appearance by yours truly, this batch of bags offers something for everyone.

Until next year, check out our last set of Bags in the Wild below!

Louis Vuitton Monogram, Dior, and More!

I like the lady in the practical pumps and the Ferragamo Gancini bag. So chic.

Jaime

Is Hermes exclusive? My goodness just everyone has one. Otherwise chic.

Lori

There are a lot of other H bags that are great. Seeing so many Birkins makes me glad I no longer own one. Would rather have something more unique from H.

That’s exactly why the birkin (even the Kelly) is the basic b bag of the 2020’s. They’re literally everywhere and that’s not even counting on social media. So sad that people have such lack of originality when it comes to personal style. It’s not REAL old money I’ll tell you that much lol More like I just won the lottery style.

PinkStink

I see you haven’t lost your judgy opinion. Not your money = None of your business….

Vlad Dusil

I suppose they are very popular on New York’s Upper East Side, which is where I took most of these NYC street shots.

Kaly

And I thoroughly appreciate all these pics, thank you Vlad!!

J B

Oooos and aaaaahs and 🫠 and then like a zit surfacing the Telfar ….why.

pat

Why? Because to each his own. Obviously people like it even if you don’t.

Fiona

Exactly! Hideous bag.

I-HATE-elitists

That’s incredibly rude to be shi***ng on a POC designer, who has made luxury bags accessible to EVERYONE. Telfar has won SEVERAL design awards over the years. Please keep you racist, closed-minded-snobby comments to yourself!! 👎👎

Fiona

It doesn’t matter who made it. I don’t care if it was made by an alien. Not everything is about race! It’s not an attractive bag and the logo is awful. To each his own.

cuteduskwild

Its ok to dislike things, it doesnt have to be about race. But maybe you didnt have to put it like that xD. Its better to not yuck someones yum!

Vlad Dusil

I chose the image to introduce a bit of variety to the lot, as the Telfar price point is a lot lower than the rest of the featured bags.

SonShownu

The lady with Ferragamo Gancini bag reminds me of Lily van der Woodsen from Gossip Girl

Terri

Love photos 23 and 25. Tres chic. Great shot!

Vlad Dusil

Thank you, the first was in front of Bergdorfs on Fifth Ave and the coated ladies had just emerged from fancy lunch on the UES!

Eva

Love your pics 🙂

StopFollowingTrends

Love the Telfar bag! I like to see more originally and from a bag that can *actually* be obtainable to own!!

Thefashionableteacher

Loving the bicolor Chanel.

Nothing says, “Rob me!” like an open-top Birkin or other expensive, open bag held so casually, and especially any crossbody bags carried behind their backs with the latch facing out. How do you secure your wallet and other valuables when you are lumbering/teetering obliviously down a crowded street, staring at your iPhone and paying zero attention to the traffic or people around you?? Then they’ll all cry, “Buuuutttt….I was ROBBED!” Sad.

Sam

You obviously do not live in NYC. No one is getting robbed on 5th/UES lol

Lori

I love the Dior bucket bag. I looked at it in Paris last month and loved it, though it was too small for my needs. But looks great in the picture.

Fiona

Finally! Beautiful bags and classy outfits. You redeemed yourself with the last bags in the wild post of the year.

Claire

Remind me to always look as thrilled and happy as as I should when I’m carrying a beautiful Birkin 🙂

chris10chris

Must be exhausted from the weight-lifting effort….

Georgina

Love the Dior tan bucket bag, not seen one of those before and I think they’re super classy.

Anonymous

Is it possible to make indicate the size of the bags? I get confused between a b30 and 35 and k28 and k32 when its worn. Haha maybe my eyes r just plating tricks on me.

Adangerousbeauti

Ok so i guess everyone wears Celine sunglasses nowadays.

The Kelly bag worn on the shoulder makes uou an easy target. Id never wear it that way. I will wear it crossbody in New York. Buy a longer strap!

No matter how many times i was about to buy a Bottega bag, i always change my mind as they are very underwhelming for the steep price.

Love how the Gucci crossbody bag sits on the girl wearing black leather pants.

Love the furs and love the vert cypress? Birkin.

Adangerousbeauti

Also the ladies with the fur, onviouslyvtalked about meeting up wearing their furs and their birkins. 🙂
