Trust Me—Buy These 19 Bags
Hey! It’s Nicole here (again). Hope you’re not sick of me by now, because something was telling me that it’s a great time for another @trustmebuythis-inspired shopping roundup. From my favorite $20 pouch style to designer investment pieces, today I’m putting a special spin on the Trust Me—Buy This series and making it all about bags—because honestly, can we ever have enough of them? In case you’re really contemplating that answer, I must tell you it’s a hard no, so simply continue on to see the ones that are in my closet right now (both old and new), read about what makes each so great, and—of course—shop them.
I love the eye-catching shape of this little Common Knowledge bag.
Shop the bag in red:
I use this Hayward bag so much, especially because it lies completely flat when empty, so it’s perfect for packing. I love seeing the new prints, colors, and materials the brand comes out with every season.
Shop the bag in zebra print:
Loewe's puzzle bag is possibly my favorite black everyday bag of all time.
Shop the bag:
Every time I look at this Nanushka belt bag, I fall in love with the color again.
Shop the bag:
Though it was definitely an investment, I think this mini Lady Dior bag is one of my most used items. The size and neutral silver color are perfect for dressing up any outfit, and the bag truly goes with everything.
Shop a similar bag:
All I can say is that the fact that this bag costs $20 baffles me every time I think about it.
Shop the bag:
Danse Lente's bags are the types to always garner compliments, thanks to their unique shapes.
Shop the bag:
If you're looking for an elevated net-style bag, this is it.
Shop the bag:
I'm obsessed with the super-luxe mock-croc texture on this standout Rejina Pyo purse.
Shop the bag:
I love any of Cult Gaia's architectural bamboo pieces, and if you're looking for a durable woven tote for everyday carrying, Truss is the brand you should seek.
Shop Cult Gaia and Truss bags:
The Row's double circle bag is destined to become a classic.
Shop the bag in satin:
After I found this literal gem of a purse on Nasty Gal months ago, it instantly sold out. However, I somehow recently rediscovered it on Amazon—in stock and available for $9!
Shop the bag:
I love the classic yet interesting shape of Carolina Santo Domingo's Sirena bag. It's also perfect for travel because it has a removable crossbody strap and is big enough to hold your daytime essentials yet petite enough for nighttime.
Shop the bag in black:
If you're looking for easy entry into the world of plastic, this is it.
Shop the bag:
I use this elevated woven tote anywhere from the beach on vacations to day-to-day for work.
Shop the bag in tan:
Again, an affordable Who What Wear collection find for the win.
Shop the bag:
Mark Cross's mini box bag is such a classic shape that I don't ever see it going out of style.
Shop a similar bag:
Every new version of the Staud Bisset bag seems to be cooler than the last. If I'm being honest, my current favorite is the new black patent leather.
Shop the bag in black patent leather:

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here atBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing , and she is currently Editor-at-Large. It was a less expected route, seeing as she was graduating from business school at USC when this all began, but it has turned out to be the best one for her. Fast-forward to 2024, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was an intern starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to classic pieces and neutral basics but will always make an exception for something colorful, printed, or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a good party is dressing up for one. On weekdays, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious for dinner and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
