And the first place goes to Birkin. Its iconic status means that the waiting list for this bag is so long that it has been closed. So do not worry that you can’t afford one because you couldn’t get one anyway. But if you have got it, be sure that in the next 50 years it will be always in fashion and my congratulations.

Yves Saint Laurent and its Muse handbag. The bag was designed a couple of seasons ago, but it can still be seen on the arms of celebrities. Classic things never become dull and forgotten. It costs £ 630.

I cannot but mentioning the 2.55 bag from Chanel. Could you believe that it was designed in 1955? Then it appeared again for the 60th anniversary. This season the super practical 2.55 is again in the center of attention. Its price is £ 870.

It has been a year since Fendi B was launched, but the fashion world is still talking about it. Even though it’s been spotted swinging on the arm of a WAG or two, don’t let that put you off. This bag is super stylish and is meant to become a future classic. Now it is available for £ 780.

One of the biggest sellers this year, the quilted leather Stam comes in grey and patent for winter. It represents a blend of high fashion status with a down-town street sensibility in an awesome way that only Marc Jacobs can do. The bag costs £ 760.
Even if all the fuss about collections 2010 will fade away, these classic bags will be still the best.

SS 2010 Handbag Collection by Chloe

Every brand features its own special signature that differs it from others. Talking about Chloe I tend to think about its luxurious bags that are simplistic yet awesome and trendy. Let’s take a look at the latest handbag collection of the brand.

SS 2010 Handbag Collection by Chloe

Spring – Summer bags by Chloe have basic forms, which makes them exceptionally practical pieces for urban style. Elsie evening bags have an elegant and appealing look. You can see in the picture two versions of the bag: one made of lambskin and the other of python leather. Though both Elsie bags have the same design, the first one looks elegant and exquisite, while the other one has bold and urban look.

Elsie line is presented in the collection by Elsie pony-like calfskin, alligator, and sequin embroidered lambskin and a couple of bags made of buffalo skin. I think fashionistas will appreciate their luxurious look.

Python leather is one of the most popular materials for manufacturing bags now so it is no wonder that Marlow bags are also made of it. The bags feature leather straps with buckles that act like embellishment and do not have practical importance.

Personally I fell in love with Ethel hobo by Chloe. The hobo is made of lambskin in light brown hue. The bag has two folds at the front part and a small Chloe label. A short shoulder strap has buckles at both ends.
