I don’t know what it is about a bag with zippered turrets and towers that makes my heart soar, but I can’t think of a cooler backpack to wear this summer when zipping around town on my Flying Pigeon bicycle.

I’ve been eyeing this A.P.C. bag since I saw it. I appreciate its simplicity, its weekday-to-weekend possibilities, and its relatively small size. Like everybody, I tend to accumulate a lot of unnecessary junk in my bag, but in this one, I won’t be able to. In the spring and summer it’s good to feel as unencumbered as possible. Nice price, too!

I’m not much of a handbag freak, but lately I’ve been feeling mini bags—the smaller and the dinkier, the better. And that’s why I’ve got my eye on Phillip Lim’s Alix mini. It’s small without any of the cutesy-ness, and the chunky paper clip closure has an industrial vibe I can get with. Plus, I feel like there is something so fresh and clean about white accessories in the spring.

I am hoping for this Gucci bag this season . . . why? Why not!

There are two on my list at the moment. Victoria Beckham’s Half Moon is my most coveted at the moment since I saw it in September, but nothing makes my heart swoon more than Hermès’s Birkin Grizzly bag in suede. Light and elegant, it goes with everything from day to night.

I just invested in this Louis Vuitton Nano Speedy bag and am so, so excited for it to finally arrive this week. As you can see here, I think the Speedy is making a comeback this spring. My bag is actually a pre-owned piece from Hara & Co. that I managed to purchase over Instagram’s direct message. I love the logo, the shape, the mini size—everything about it is all very right now. If I could invest in a second spring bag, it would probably be the Gucci Boston bag!

Ever since the Fall ’15 show, I have not stopped lusting after the oversize color-blocked bucket bag from Céline. What I love about this bag is that, not only is it super practical, you can (quite literally) throw anything into it and be on your merry way. But the two-toned quality also alludes to the fact that you have the same bag in two different colors. The sage green allows you to carry it on a beautiful, sunny summer day, and you could carry the chocolate brown in the depths of winter. Who says you can’t use the same bag all year long?

I wouldn’t mind a bag that doubles as a plaything, and J.W.Anderson’s leather sac with a tangle handle is just that. Plus, it’s versatile! Coil it up and you’ve got a wristlet, straighten it out and it’s a shoulder bag, or just sculpt up the strap and leave it on your shelf as modern art.

I have my eyes on Gucci’s glittering Dionysus bag. It’s the perfect day-to-night, I-just-threw-this-on-but-I-look-amazing purse that I have to have for spring.

I’ve been eyeing this bag for a while. I love carrying a white tote during the spring and summer. The leather and suede combo here is really pretty, and the gold hardware is a great accent.

Like a great pair of jeans, patches only make a bag better! This Loewe bag is practical but not too serious, which, to me, makes for a perfect investment.

I love Trademark’s accessories and have been carrying their box satchel all winter—spring seems like a perfect time to update to a new classic.

It’s nigh impossible for me to play favorites with Marc Jacobs’s Spring ’16 silver screen extravaganza, but I fell particularly hard for his embellished little pochettes decked out in popcorn, 3-D glasses, et al. The mirror and scattered pearl “pills” on this style are giving me major shades of Valley of the Dolls. “Sparkle, Neely, Sparkle!”

My first foray into carrying a proper handbag! I can’t completely lose my edge, though, so Maison Margiela’s 5AC bag was the obvious choice.

I can’t resist a basket—Easter, trug, Nantucket—so you can imagine how excited I was to see this bit of loveliness from Saint Laurent, which reminds me of the days before the Birkin bag, when its namesake, Jane, carried a darling market basket around.

Ever since I first cast my vote for the Loewe Puzzle bag during the Vogue.com It Bag Campaign, this calfskin, trapezoid number has been the bag of my dreams. Recently, I discovered it comes in a smaller, more functional edition as a shoulder bag and in my all-time favorite color: poppy red. Thus, the ROI (return on investment) on this spring purchase is well worth it.
