Last year for National Handbag Day, I went about reading my handbag tea leaves to figure out what your handbag choices say about you. This year, in celebration of the holiday’s second coming on Friday, I’ve returned with a new set of highly covetable bags to do the same. Check out the results below.
Fendi Petite 3Jours Bag
$2,550 via Nordstrom
You’ve told at least one of your more judgmental friends that your $800 Bag Bug only cost $40.
Givenchy Rottweiler Tote
$1,145 via Barneys
Part of you does not mind (and maybe enjoys, just a little bit) scaring small children.
Mansur Gavriel Bucket Bag
$495 via MATCHESFASHION.COM
You’ve considered waitlisting for a second bag to sell on eBay to pay for your first one, now that you’ve cracked the code.
Chanel Boy Bag
You have been teased about eating ramen for dinner every night to support your bag habit, but you like ramen, so it’s not a big deal, okay?
Céline Trio Bag
You have a Pinterest board of Dakota Fanning outfit inspiration.
A Bag “Inspired” by the Céline Trio
Annabel Ingall Jojo Crossbody Bag

You have a Pinterest board of Elle Fanning outfit inspiration.
Mulberry Cara Delevingne Backpack
$2,700 via Net-a-Porter
You once tried to use Latisse on your eyebrows.
Prada Face Bag
You can get a same-day reservation at ABC Kitchen.
Louis Vuitton Soft Lockit Bag
$4,250 via Louis Vuitton
After being overwhelmed by near-daily images of celebrities carrying this bag over the summer, you developed Stockholm Syndrome and bought one.
KARA Backpack
$510 via ShopBop
You tell everyone you live in Williamsburg, but both you and I know it’s actually Bushwick.
Christian Dior Diorissmo Bag
“I mean, I like Chanel, but it’s just gotten a little mass, you know?”
Like the caption on DIOR! Spot on! LOL
Rottweiler tote is spot on for me!
the Christian Dior one is SO accurate. Same thing I tell my friends who want to spend 5k on Chanel, go to Dior!
🙂
Love that when I click “continue reading” it shows them all on one page instead of having to click through. Super convenient!
but i’m confused- it opens a new page for every picture? so i can no longer use a back button?? seems more like a way to keep your “clicks” up…
Weird–what browser are you using? That’s not how it loads for me, at all. When I click “continue reading” (using chrome), it shows all the images in a single page and I can use the back button. It does not open a new page for each picture.
We’ve been working hard on finding a way that it scrolls nicely and with this latest rendition, we think we got it close to right!
Thanks so much! I definitely appreciate your hard work!
You totally did. Loving not only this, but the entire new interface redesign… thanks!
Woohoo!!
Glad you like it! We’ve been trying to find a good solution to that for a while now, and we hope it works for everyone!
Doesn’t work on my cell phone though… 🙁
On your cell you can swipe through the pages of the article. Even easier!
It’s not the judgmental friends, it’s the husband you stretch the truth with. A little mystery in marriage helps.
Haha! My other half always ask, “is that new? ” I smile and say, “honey how can you forget I had this for a long time!
Ha!
Yeah, I feel the same about the Dior bag, and have been researching to find one that fits my lifestyle. Leaning towards vintage.
Saw a great Dior small ostrich saddle bag on annsfabulousfinds.com if they still have it — in their close out section I think.
Fendi + Bag Bug couldn’t be more accurate. Dying.
The quote under the chanel bag is entirely true! I mean we do have our priorities afterall.
I’ve wait listed myself a few times for the bucket bag since the summer. Will I ever be contacted that one is actually available or is this like hoping to spot a rainbow unicorn?
“Somehow, plastering a photo of a Cock-a-poo’s face on a bag does not instill confidence. Howls of laughter.”
I have caught the Dior bug is a sick way. 2 so far this year, it’s just not logical!
I wouldn’t buy a Chanel, but am loving Dior!
