Top 6 Gucci Handbags

From Desiree Stimpert, About.com

Gucci handbags -- forever fashionable, forever coveted.

It's always a treat when I get to do a Top Picks for one of the great designers, so imagine my joy today when I came across the name Gucci on my "to do" list.

After you see these fabulous handbags, you'll be having one of those "good days" as well.

1. Gucci Handbags - Brown Leather "Britt" Tote
This brown leather Gucci bag is fabulous. Simple interlocking G ornament with a zipper pocket and magnetic snap closure. The deep brown is perfect for fall in the big city.

2. Gucci Bags "85th Anniversary - Rusty"
Sharp, straightforward, and stunning. The 85th Anniversary bag comes in a variety of colors and patterns with rust being the featured shade here. 15.5" wide and 10" in height, it even has an 85th Anniversary plaque on back.

3. Gucci Small, Chic Messenger Bags
Messenger bags Gucci style! This chic bag comes in black and features an adjustable shoulder belt, internal zip pocket, and a tiny silver metal logo on front. Very charming.

4. Gucci Handbags - 85th Anniversary Medium Hobo Bag
A bag so nice, I picked it twice. But this version has the horse-bit pattern and needs to be seen to be believed. Fantastic!

5. Gucci Purses - Striking Pigna Print Fabric
Featuring gold metal rings and hardware, pigna pineapple print fabric, and a bamboo carrying handle that changes everything, the perfect summer bag is right here.

6. Gorgeous "Capri" Gucci Handbags
With my love of red shoes and handbags well documented, it should be noted that I am equally obsessed with white, hence the capri bag. Startlingly white with gold hardware, this bag is adorable at 12" wide and 7.5" tall. This might be the best summer bag you'll ever see.
