If there’s anything that’s synonymous with Sex And The City, besides Manolo Blahniks and Cosmopolitans, it’s the Fendi Baguette. Though the Baguette had already achieved “It” bag status, its frequent appearances on SATC were what really solidified its cult following. Carrie mostly wore the Baguette on the second season of the show, but it continued to make appearances throughout the series and even had its own mini-arc in the Los Angeles episodes.

While season two was all about Baguettes, the Dior Saddle took over Carrie’s wardrobe in season three. She had one around her arm in just about every scene. For that reason, and to no one’s surprise, the show was also credited with making the bag a commercial success.

We already knew that Patricia Field is a genius, after all, she’s the costume designer responsible for The Devil Wears Prada and Emily in Paris, but pairing Charlotte York with a Lady Dior was simply perfection. It’s only fitting that the regal Charlotte sported a bag named after a royal, and she wears it so well we must say.

A more unexpected choice for Charlotte York, we were stunned to see her sporting the Louis Vuitton Papillon in the limited edition Cherry Blossom Monogram print that was part of Takashi Murakami’s iconic collaboration with the brand. This bag emits a strong early ‘00s nostalgia that we are so glad is making a comeback. We’re keeping our fingers crossed that there’s some more Murakami x LV appearances in the new series.

Whether you’re Team Aidan or Team Big, one thing we can all agree on is the collective pain we felt while watching Carrie receive this Judith Leiber bag from her boyfriend Mr. Big instead of the “I love you” she was hoping for. We’d still happily take the bag though!

In our humble opinion, some of Carrie’s best looks can be found in season four, which was largely characterized by her trusty Gucci Belt Bag. Whether she was baring midriff or over a crisp white button down, the Belt Bag seamlessly fit into every look.

Another beloved Gucci style, Carrie frequently toted around this Gucci Ophidia Top Handle bag. Although it is not as widely acknowledged as the Baguette and Saddle, we think the Ophidia is just as much of an emblem of Carrie and deserves more time in the spotlight after all these years.

Everyone’s favorite lawyer, Miranda Hobbes, kept her handbag choices pretty low-key throughout the series, sticking mainly to larger totes and briefcases to carry all her casework. But, one bag in particular did stick out in our minds, this vintage Chanel clutch she sported in episode three season four. The subtle CC and sleek sophistication of the bag fit perfectly into Miranda’s consistently subdued yet powerful style choices. 

What kind of round-up would this be if we didnt discuss Jennifer Hudson’s Louis Vuitton bag in the first SATC film. Hudson plays Carrie’s bag-obsessed assistant, and if that wasn’t relatable enough, the character also had great taste with favorite brands like Chanel and Louis Vuitton. In the end, Carrie surprises her fabulous assistant with a Louis Vuitton Motard Firebird, and we couldn’t help but wonder, How do we get a job working for Ms. Bradshaw?

And finally, who could forget the absolutely iconic Birkin episode when Samantha Jones uses her PR connections to score the bag, but her plans are foiled. We can’t remember if Sam actually ended up with a Birkin by the series finale, but we definitely remember when the store clerk told her the price tag was a “whopping” $4,000 — if only that price tag stood the test of time. Ultimately, we do see Carrie carrying a blue Birkin in season five to hide Sarah Jessica Parker’s very real baby bump, and again in the final season, this time in a red croc.
