When it comes to investment bags for AW25, these four deserve to be on your radar. Khaite’s Simona shoulder bag taps into the season’s mood for elevated minimalism with its rich oxblood leather and elongated silhouette. Métier’s Private Eye is the ultimate work-to-weekend holdall – chic yet practical. Polomi is a new name to know and the Safiri in black taurillon leather is a lesson in quiet luxury – structured, timeless and built to last. Finally, Prada’s latest launch, the Dada, is a softly sculpted mini that captures that effortless Italian elegance. Available in an array of colours, the cream is a standout – the perfect transitional shade.

I’ve been wanting to add an east-west bag to my collection for ages, and starting with Alaïa feels fitting given they kicked off the trend. Leopard print is a forever-neutral, so I’ll wear it with countless looks. I’m always drawn to colour and texture, so the new Jacquemus instantly appealed. Day to day, I like an oversized style – TOTEME’s brown mock croc is the perfect work bag. And I can’t get enough of this Gucci green – the mini will go with so many of my outfits, day or night.

When investing in a designer bag, I try to either go for something classic or something quite mega or unique that everyone doesn't already have – these definitely hit that brief. I'm loving these on-trend autumn shades and cool shapes to add interest for the days when all I want to wear is a slouchy knit and jeans.

I fell for Bottega’s new Campana shape the moment I saw it – it’s more structured than the slouchy silhouettes we’ve been used to and feels really fresh. Belted bags are everywhere right now, and I love the detail – these suede styles from TOTEME and Liffner are especially chic. Finally, this Khaite tote caught my eye; it’s the perfect everyday size you can throw everything into.
