Classic and timeless, an investment bag needs to be a piece that you’ll use and own for many years to come. In the market for your first investment bag or looking to expand your collection? Look no further – I’ve rounded up some of the best investment bags below!
I’ve also done a few reviews and #wimb on some of these bags over on my Instagram Stories under my Bag highlights and my IGTV.
It’s important to note that storing your designer bags properly will help keep them in their best condition for longer, and help prevent them from losing their shape over time. Make sure you check out our post onHow to Store Designer Bags.

Gucci Dionysus
The Dionysus is a style from Gucci I still really love! If you’re into the slightly edgy hardware definitely check this bag out. The Dionysus has amazing hardware and comes in a great size range, so there’s a size that will suit every outfit, from evening wear through to those days in the office. I have the small size and also the WOC size.
The small size is a really good size for every day use. It fits enough for me to take it to work but is small enough that it’s also great to take on weekend outings. To see exactly what can fit inside the Small size, along with a little review, head to my Instagram and check out my ‘Bag’ story highlights.
One of my favourite smaller bags is definitely the Gucci Dionysus Mini Chain Bag (I talk about it in my post on the Best Designer Crossbody Bags to Invest In). It goes with almost everything and has an edgy look which I love, and its definitely one of the designer bags worth buying. This one is my newest Gucci purchase and I have an unboxing of it over on myInstagram TV. This is definitely a bag for those times where you don’t need to carry much with you though as it doesn’t fit a whole lot. I go through what can fit inside over on myInstagram TV.

Celine Luggage Tote
My Celine Mini Luggage bag was one of the first designer bags I ever purchased and I still love it just as much today (although the nano size is now my favourite)! Structured and classic, the Celine Luggage tote is one of the most iconic Celine bags, and for a good reason. It comes in 3 sizes (Nano, Micro and Mini) and various colour ways. These bags are great because they have one large compartment so they fit a lot (even the nano size!) and have a couple of leather options depending on what style you prefer – smooth or drummed leather. I own the smooth calfskin in both the Mini and the Nano sizes – it does scratch more than the drummed leather but it’s supposed to hold its shape better over time.
To see exactly what can fit inside the Mini and Nano sizes head to my Instagram and check out my ‘Bag’ story highlights.
The Mini is the largest size and is perfect for work or travel – it can easily fit your essentials and a laptop (and basically your entire life inside – its huge!). The only con with the Mini Luggage is that it’s quite heavy (definitely heavier than the Belt Bag), and doesn’t have a shoulder strap. Despite the weight, I still love this bag, and the size makes it perfect for traveling with too. I have an IGTV video on how I pack my Celine Mini Luggage for work and what fits inside here!
The Celine Nano Luggage would probably be one of my all time favourite designer bag purchases. Even though it’s a mini bag, it fits so much inside! It can definitely carry all my day to day essentials so it’s a great everyday bag, and I like wearing it cross body so I can be hands free. It also looks super cute carried by the top handles. I have an IGTV video on what fits inside the Nano size here.
You can find some pre owned styles at really good prices if you’re not wanting to spend the money on a new one. I’ve linked some options below!

Louis Vuitton Twist
With amazing hardware and a great size for either running errands during the day or an evening out, this versatile bag is practical and chic, and definitely one of those bags worth investing in.
Saint Laurent Chain Wallet
Who else can’t say no to a classic YSL?! With a detachable chain, you can wear this bag as a clutch for the evening or a crossbody bag during the day.The leather is also very durable and can easily be wiped clean if it does get dirty. I’ve had mine for years and it still looks almost as good as new – it’s a piece that will definitely last you for a long time! I have an IGTV video on what fits inside the YSL Chain Wallethere.
