San Francisco, part two: a hotel-room hangout, a party-bus ride around town, a breezy boat ride past Alcatraz, and a dumpling class at China Live. The bags came ready to travel.
Hotel room: a vintage Chanel duffle
Perched on a Rimowa is a black grained-leather duffle with a big gold CC on the front tab. It looks like a vintage Chanel caviar Boston/duffle, the kind of carry-on that makes airport security feel like a runway.

Heather Gay: Chanel flap in metallic silver
Butter-yellow skirt, crisp white shirt, and a quilted silver flap with the CC turnlock. It looks like a Chanel mini flap in metallic lambskin. Basically a disco ball with a chain strap.

Britani Bateman: Bottega Veneta intrecciato hobo
Olive tank, paisley jeans, and a big, soft woven hobo in a mossy mustard shade. The maxi intrecciato looks like Bottega Veneta's Jodie. Relaxed and expensive, like a Sunday that runs long.

Whitney Rose: Gucci GG Supreme shoulder bag
Head-to-toe pink on the boat, plus a GG Supreme canvas shoulder bag on a gold chain with Double G hardware up top. It looks like Gucci, from the Ophidia/Attache family, with a pink heart charm on the ride-along. Matching the charm to the outfit is a power move.

Quai: Chanel Flap Bag with Top Handle
Red dress, gold belt, and a black quilted flap with a gold top handle and the CC turnlock. It looks like Chanel's Flap Bag with Top Handle. It suits a dumpling class: polished, and the handle keeps the bag out of the dough.

Angie Katsanevas: Jacquemus Le Chiquito in yellow
A tiny sunshine-yellow top-handle tucked beside her on the party-bus seat. It looks like the Jacquemus Le Chiquito, small enough to hold a lipstick and plenty of attitude.

Meredith Marks: Fendi Peekaboo ISeeU in gold
Gold sequins head to toe, and the bag waiting on the dresser matches. The twin twist-lock compartments and crinkled metallic leather look like a Fendi Peekaboo ISeeU in gold laminated leather. Disco-ready before the elevator even arrives.

Bronwyn Newport: Judith Leiber gold crystal minaudière
It's her disco reunion, so the hostess arrives in a pink halter gown, a cloud of pink feathers, and a palm-sized gold minaudière covered in crystals. It looks like Judith Leiber, and the rounded, petal-like shape suggests the Rose Golden. A disco ball you can carry.

Britani Bateman: Coperni Mini Swipe in metallic pink
Sequins top and bottom, rose-tinted aviators, and a bag that catches every light on the rooftop. The puffy molded crescent with the handle carved right out of the top looks like a Coperni Mini Swipe in metallic pink. It's part handbag, part sculpture, and fully on theme.
