A simple, quality leather handbag is always in style, and you can get the satisfaction of owning an authentic designer purse without worrying about whether someone else doubts its authenticity.

While designer labels attract buyers, it’s the quality that really makes designer handbags worth hundreds of dollars. A less expensive bag may look just as nice as a designer bag, but over time, wear and tear will reveal the lack of quality in less expensive bags. Painted, faux leather will crack and peel over time, and the color will wear off. An authentic leather designer handbag will withstand the test of time, and some types of leather bags look even look better the more they’re used. If you remember that an authentic designer purse is an investment – one that won’t have to be replaced every year, like a cheaper bag – you’ll see that it’s worth the A-list price.

From big leather hobo bags to more structured totes featuring the beige and brown Fendi logo, all Fendi handbags exhibit style and class, on which both Lagerfeld and the brand thrive.

The most famous Fendi design is the small Baguette bag, named for its shape, which resembles a French loaf of bread. Launched in 1997, it was the “it” bag in the late 90s due to Carrie Bradshaw’s love of Fendi bags on the trendsetting TV show Sex and the City. But Lagerfeld first helped make the designer successful in 1965, when he redesigned products for the company and helped it go international. This stylish man has long influenced Fendi and its products, an you can rest assured that you can’t go wrong with an authentic Fendi handbag.
