I Showed My 56-Year-Old Mum 33 It Bags—These Are Her Favourites
We’re back, y’all! And by we I mean my mum and me with a new story all about bags. This time, I showed her a whopping 33 It bags and asked her to share her thoughts on her favourites. She also had a lot of feelings about her not-so-favourites, and while I won’t tell you which bags didn’t make her cut, for entertainment’s sake, I’ll tell you that she threw around such phrases as: "hate,” "looks cheap,” "looks like a big box,” and "don’t like at all.” So yeah, it was fun!
Back to the handbags she did like since, thankfully, there was still a lot to choose from (18 to be exact). From new twists on old classics like the above Chanel flap bag in houndstooth and Dior's matte-black update to relatively newer cult labels such as BY FAR and Nanushka, her picks were all across the spectrum, so I'm confident there's something for everyone below. To see, read about and shop the mum-approved purses, just keep scrolling.
Fendi Baguette
"It's been around for so long. The baguette is classic but also practical. You can dress it up or down and wear it day or night."
Louis Vuitton Multi-Pochette Accessoires
She said, "I like this for younger people." As long as I'm included in that category, the answer is fine by me!
Nanushka Lynne
Dior Lady Dior Ultra-Matte
Victoria Beckham Powder Box
"This elegant and simple bag has a sophisticated look that I really like."
Staud Moon
"I like this bag. It has a modern yet simple and classic look."
Ratio et Motus Twin Frame Tote
"I can imagine this looking good on someone with more out-there and interesting style."
Paco Rabanne 1969
"I love this bag. It's fun, it has an expensive look, it adds to any outfit."
Wandler Georgia
"I like this bag. It's a very fresh look but classic and wearable."
Bottega Veneta Cassette
All she said was "love," but I think that sums it up perfectly.
Elleme Raisin Leather Crossbody
"I do like this bag. It's plain but with a twist because of the contrast python. That makes it interesting."
Chloé Chloé C
BY FAR Mini Tote
Givenchy Nano Eden
Burberry TB
"Very beautiful. It's classic, useful and chic, so to me, it's worth the price."
Alexander Wang x Bulgari Belt Bag
"I love the shape, the leather, the hardware and how useful it is." Same, Mum.
Chanel Houndstooth Flap Bag
"I love the tweed, colour combo and chain. A fresh look for this classic bag."

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.
