I’ve been practicing for five years now and I finally want to get my first designer bag. What is a good first designer bag?

The one that fits your personal style and you love to carry. Celine is my personal favorite.

I like Tory Burch in the under 1k range. Over 1k, YSL. Over 2k, LV.

Most designer brands aren’t worth it anymore. They’re expensive (ridiculously so) but very poor quality. A lot of them have gotten quite tacky too IMO. I stick to Coach and Kate spade because the quality is far superior than all others. 🤷🏽‍♀️ I do like the look of mulberry and Celine but can’t justify the price even at my BL salary, so I haven’t even bothered looking into whether they’re decent quality.

Coach is having a huge comeback! But The argument that it’s better than other designer bags is not strong.

I like Strathberry, Loewe, Toteme, and second the recommendations for DeMelier and Celine - all understated, IYKYK, and high quality

Adding Polène to this list too!

I love my Louis Vuitton Pochette. I don’t use it for work, but I use it for any kind of event, shopping, etc. I used to have a Louis I used for work but it wasn’t durable enough and it felt weird destroying a 3.5k bag with my laptop.

Shop outlet stores if you can access them online! I’ll echo that Kate Spade and Coach are excellent choices, Michael Kors is also popular. In a big Kate Spade fan personally, and you can get great deals on stuff if you don’t care that it’s “last season.” I have also had Coach bags that lasted me years of daily use, so the quality on those is great.

The most timeless designers for handbags are Hermes, Chanel and Louis Vuitton. If you’re spending in the thousands, I would stick to these brands.

Love DeMelier. It is reasonably priced (all things considered) and very high quality

I use a YSL Manhattan bag for work. Love it!

Last night I went over to my friends house (she has 2 kids, 2 and 4 yo). She and her husband were asking me about my pregnancy and planning. And were asking what I’ve prepped to date. I’m only 13w2 days so I think it’s way to early for buying stuff, but I did mention we hired a baby nurse for when the baby comes. My friend completely berated me, short of calling me a bad mom already, saying “what is she going to do all day? Don’t you want to bond with your child?”. I’m so upset by this.

First trimester insomnia?
I’m only about 5 weeks, but my sleep schedule has gone off the rail the last three nights. I’m sleepy/drowsy, settled in bed around the same time every night, and yet I cannot fall or stay asleep. I have a white noise machine, comfy bed, cool room.. etc. When I do fall asleep, it’s earlier in the morning and I sleep until 1/1:30pm. This was fine the first few nights since it was the weekend, but it can’t keep up. Anyone else experience this and have any recommendations?

How much stock do you put on benefits? I have two offers with stark differences in benefits. Job 1: role I want, but benefit sucks (2 weeks paternity leave, 20% coinsurance). Job 2: role is okay but higher level and great benefits (16 weeks paternity, 0% coinsurance, 5 more days of vacation). Total comp is the same though. I wonder if I should just focus on role but Job 2 is a large company, so I can move around after 2-3 years I’d expect. Thoughts?
