Top Designers Bags are all lust worthy items. I’m sure I’m not the only person who has dreamt about owning an Hermes Birkin bag or a vintage Chanel purse. When it comes to top designer bags, there are a select few that are worth looking at. Now, I’m not saying you should own all of them (one could only dream!) but if you’re looking to invest in an iconic design then these are the top designer bags that you should be looking at.

1. Chanel 2.55

Chanel 2.55 Price: $3900.00 at chanel.com
When it comes to the most iconic top designer bags, you can’t beat the Chanel 2.55. This luxury bag epitomises the understated, stylish nature of the Chanel brand. There is the classic flap version of this bag, and the newer reissue. The classic version features the iconic interlocking C hardware while the reissue doesn’t. This bag is available in a range of colours and finishes.

2. Louis Vuitton Speedy

Louis Vuitton Speedy Price: $1270.00 at louisvuitton.com
The Louis Vuitton Speedy is another timeless designer bag. With a simple silhouette, the Speedy comes in a range of sizes. While this style of bag is probably more iconic in the Louis Vuitton monogram, I think it is much more sophisticated in a plain leather finish.

3. Hermes Birkin

Hermes Birkin Price: $9000.00-$150,000.00 at hermes.com
Despite being free of any overt logos, the Birkin bag is one of the most recognisable top designer bags in the world. This luxury bag is not only stylish, but very expensive. With the option of customisation, and previously with a waiting list of up to six years to even buy one, this bag is all about exclusivity.

4. Mulberry Bayswater

Mulberry Bayswater Price: $1050.00 at net-a-porter.com
The Bayswater is the ideal larger sized bag. While the Mulberry Alexa may be all the rage now, the Bayswater was the original ‘It’ bag for the iconic British brand. With a classic design that is sure to last you year in and year out, this bag is definitely worth investing in.

The Stam bag is another one of the more modern top designer bags. Named after the Canadian model Jessica Stam, this bag reached cult status. The style of the bag is quite ladylike, and often features a quilted leather finish. It features metal chain-link hardware, and is reminiscent of the classic Chanel bag.

Awe... I keep dreaming about Chanel 2.55. I only have a LV speedy from this list. Hermes in an interesting color is another dream of mine. Fantastic list! Thanks a lot!

Why would you pay THAT much for a bag?!
