10 timeless red bags for CNY and beyond

You won’t have to retire these bags to your wardrobe after CNY and Valentine’s Day

by Ho Guo Xiong  /   January 20, 2021

Chinese New Year is a time where we get decked out in red to earn auspicious points for the coming year. Now that you’ve got celeb tips on how to work with red, and some gorgeous red lipstick ideas, it’s time you look into bags – red bags that will complete your look.

Now, we’re all for sustainability, and that includes making wise purchasing decisions as much as possible. For instance, buying items with a discernible shelf life, and items that serve more than one purpose. (Yes, we are also painfully aware of how hard it is to resist stylish designer bags.)

With that in mind, we’ve picked our favourite red-toned bags that are worthy for most other occasions besides CNY. Keep scrolling to shop.

Valentino Garavani 03 Rose Edition Atelier Small Leather Shoulder Bag, $3,646 from Net-a-Porter
image

Introduced late last year, this Valentino purse spotlights an eye-catching three-dimensional leather petal design made to mimic the look of a rose. We recommend going with a simple white dress or T-shirt and jeans, and let the creation take centre stage in your look.

Oscar Doctor Epsom Flame, $580 from Ling Wu
image

Made in an earthier red hue, this spacious design from homegrown label Ling Wu is easy to match and can hold more than your wallet and keys. We reckon you could chuck in a pair of flats, a set of gym attire, a water bottle and a small brolly too. Just saying.

Bottega Veneta The Pouch Large Gathered Leather Clutch, $4,221 from Net-a-Porter
image

Bottega Veneta’s The Pouch has quickly achieved cult-favourite status since its inception, thanks to the irreverent dumpling-like design. Don’t scoff at the size though – it can comfortably fit a small water bottle, a small umbrella and your usual bag essentials.
