First off, you gotta acknowledge the Lady Dior. I mean, duh. It’s practically the poster child for the whole Dior bag thing. It’s classic, it’s structured, and it screams “I have my life together” – even if you’re secretly living on ramen noodles and praying your credit card doesn’t get declined at the coffee shop. I’ve seen it everywhere – movies, red carpets, even that one time I bumped into a Real Housewife (I think?). It’s *everywhere* for a reason. Durable? Apparently. Aesthetic? Undeniably. But also… kinda predictable? I dunno, maybe I’m just feeling contrarian today.
Then there’s the whole tote bag situation. Dior does totes, and they do them *well*. We’re talking about those big canvas Book Totes that can hold, like, your entire life. Great for the beach, grocery shopping, or just generally looking effortlessly chic while lugging around a mountain of stuff. Except, everyone and their grandma has one, right? So, is it still special? Hmmm. I guess it depends on the design. A basic logo? Nah. A limited edition embroidered situation? Maybe. Depends on if I’m feeling like dropping a small fortune or not, tbh.
And StockX! Don’t even get me STARTED on StockX. It’s like the Wild West of designer bags. You can snag a deal… or you can get totally ripped off. Buyer beware, people! Do your research! Don’t just blindly throw your hard-earned cash at a pretty picture. I’ve heard horror stories. And success stories! It’s a gamble, really. Like betting on a horse, but the horse is a handbag. A very, very expensive handbag.
Honestly, the whole Dior bag thing is a bit of a rabbit hole. There are SO many styles. Saddle bags, Bobby bags (which, IMO, are kinda cute but also kinda…basic?), and a million others I can’t even remember the names of. It’s overwhelming! Like, how do you even *choose*?
