Welcome to cathclaire.com, your go-to destination for all things fashion!
As we say goodbye to 2022 and welcome in the new year, it’s time to start thinking about how we can up our style game in 2023. One of my favorite ways to elevate my wardrobe is investing in a designer bag that will not only stand the test of time with quality, but also with classic style.

Here are six luxury bags that fashionistas might want to consider adding to their collection in 2023:
- Gucci Marmont Matelassé Leather Shoulder Bag: This stylish shoulder bag is made of matelassé leather and features the iconic GG logo on the front. It’s a classic choice that will never go out of style and will never fail to add a bit of flare to an outfit for any occasion. In the mood for a pop of color in 2023? Don’t worry, this bag comes in 23 different color variations and this one is my favorite right now.
- Chanel Boy Bag: The Boy Bag is a timeless piece that has been popular among fashionistas for years. With its clean lines and chic quilted leather, it’s the perfect addition to any wardrobe. Like the name implies, I especially love the way this Chanel bag balances a super feminine outfit with it’s masculine “boy” vibes. Chanel bags do have a higher price point and can be found in great condition from reputable and sustainable vintage retailers like Rebagg, Vestaire Collective, and What Goes Around NYC online.
- Louis Vuitton Neverfull Tote: The Neverfull tote is a versatile bag that can be dressed up or down. It’s made of durable canvas and features the iconic LV monogram print. I chose this designer tote for my diaper bag when I had my son Phoenix and it has turned out to be such an amazing investment. I added this amazing tote insert to suit all of my diaper bag needs and it has kept me so organized while also looking chic!
- Bottega Veneta Jodie Bag: If you have scrolled Instagram or been on TikTok lately, you know that this unique and IMO beautifully shaped Jodie bag is trending like crazy. It features buttery soft leather and comes in just about every color you can imagine. The mini Jodie bag is SO cute and is perfect for formal occasions as well. I am swooning over this trendy designer bag for 2023!
- Saint Laurent Loulou Bag: The Loulou Bag is a fun and trendy choice for fashion-forward women. It’s made of luxurious leather and features the signature YSL monogram on the front, coming in a variety of sizes. I have been a huge fan of YSL bags for years, especially their iconic Loulou style bag. You can invest in a YSL bag that is in this classic style with a trendy color or material, or stick to a neutral color like black, white, or nude. I have my eye on this one!
- Prada Galleria Bag: The Galleria bag is a sleek and stylish option that features the iconic Prada logo on the front. It’s made of high-quality leather and has a spacious envelope-like interior, making it perfect for everyday use. This bag gives me Birkin vibes and I am always here for a Birkin vibe.

I hope these 6 bags give you inspiration for which designer bags to add to your wardrobe in 2023, fellow fashionista. I am swooning over all of them, especially the Bottega Jodie bag. Here is to manifesting one for my wardrobe in 2023! XO, Cath
