Two Classic Handbag Styles That Will Always Be in Vogue

As tempting as it is to run out and purchase the season's most popular handbag as soon as the last model walks off of the runway at Fashion Week, the savviest fashionista will usually wait a while, even as long as a few months, just to make absolutely sure that she is not spending an investment amount of money on a handbag that may only be trendy for a season or two. However, if you are in the market for a new bag and really don't want to wait, there are a few handbag styles which are considered to be sure things in the fashion world. Here, we've selected two handbag designs that will stand the test of time and ensure that your investment is a good one. The Satchel - The Louis Vuitton Speedy Bag There is no other handbag that has enjoyed the kind of longevity and popularity as Louis Vuitton's Speedy. Originally introduced in the 1930s, the bag has endured for decades, and is still available in its original incarnation, the Coated Monogram Canvas. With a huge selection of size, material, and strap options, those who are looking for a bag that will serve you well both as an everyday bag and for special occasions need look no further than this elegant and timeless style. The Tote - The Prada Saffiano This simple double-handled tote with the detachable strap has sent fashion editors into a frenzy over the last few seasons, and for good reason. The Saffiano is made from specially-treated leather with a cross-hatch pattern that increases the durability of the bag exponentially while ensuring that it always looks crisp and clean. This modern classic is available in a rainbow of shades and sizes, and although it hasn't been on the market as long as some of the other iconic handbags of our time, is destined to take a place in handbag history next to the Louis Vuitton Speedy.
