This is meant to be a fun hypothetical question, so please don't come and tell me I am crazy, no woman in her right mind, etc., etc.
I just want to hear what you think constitutes a great universal handbag. Please share the brand/designer, style, color and approximate price range. Oh, and post a picture if you can.
Thank you!

Vera Bradley tote, holds a lot of stuff and is light and very pretty!!! I can carry a raft of things I might need. (Dog in tow).

A Brahmin. I LOVE the ones I have. Choosing a style & color for 5 years could be quite difficult! I guess if I HAD to pick it would be my Olivia Rose in Red.

Easy question for me to answer......my Coach Bleeker perforated tote (color: bone)......it's a perfect bag for me!!!! I bought it last spring.....carried it all summer and it still looks like new. I WILL probably carry it for 5 years!!

Hi magicmoodz!
I used to have a ton of bags. I was always looking for that perfect bag. I really liked and wanted a LV but I couldn't afford one. Then one day, I could! Over the past 3-4 years, I have reduced my bags down to 5 bags!
First, I bought the Wilshire GM tote and I love it. It is perfect (to me)! I have been carrying it ALMOST every day of winter and fall for close to four years. It retails for $1650 now. I'm not sure what I paid, probably a little less as they do go up every year or so. It holds a ton and goes with everything.
In the spring and summer I pull out the Hampstead in the damier azur. This one is discontinued (i think. I just checked the site for the price and it wasn't there. I might have paid $1400) I love this one, too! I've carried it everyday in the spring and summer for 2 or 3 years.
For everyday, when I don't need a tote style, I have the papillon NM. Great mid size bag but in hindsight, I should have went with the Speedy-- but I try to not have the same as everyone. ($1200)
For special events and evenings I have the LV Louise, although beuatiful is probably the bag I carry the least. The gold hardware on the front is so pretty. This one is very expensive at $1700
As much as I use and love these.... the one bag that I would carry everyday for five years all seasons-- is the LV Eva Clutch. It has a short chain handle and a detachable cross body leather strap. It retails for $775. I chose this one because it is the most versatile bag I have. It goes from day to night, hands free to clutch, fits nicely in another bag, holds a lot for it's size, is stylish and durable. The perfect bag IMO.
There you have it-- my 5 bag wardrobe... :-)
What would you carry??

DOONEY & BOURKE!! It is the perfect bag!

My faux snakeskin in shades of orange and amber. I get more comments on that bag than any other ... even from men!
