Love them or hate them, one thing is undeniable:
the Kardashian-Jenner clan regularly carry some of the most covetable
handbags in the world, and because they're such profitable paparazzi
fodder, we get a near-daily look at their collections. Kylie Jenner
may be the youngest of the five sisters at just 18 years old, but she's
already proved a powerful trendsetter among the teen set (and, let's
face it, the no-longer-teen set, too), and that's more than enough to
win her a spot in our handbag-loving hearts.
I'm also personally a bit obsessed with Kylie in particular; she's terrifying in the same way the meanest, prettiest, most popular girl in middle school was, and because of that, I love her. I want her approval. She accesses some strange, still-teenage part of my brain that I can't shut off entirely. I am 30 years old.
Anyway, right, the bags. Although we looked at Kendall and Kylie's handbags as a sister-unit a while back, Kylie's collection has grown to a size that deserved its own thorough investigation. You can find exactly that below.

3.1 Phillip Lim Depeche Goat Hair Bag
$539 via Barneys Warehouse
Kylie tends to keep her bags in the "premier designer" range, but
this "premium contemporary" pick looks aesthetically appropriate to me.
Balenciaga City Bag
$1,835 via Balenciaga
This was Kylie's favorite bag for, like, a whole year. She carried it
constantly. Do you know how rare it is for teenagers to be so
consistent?
Balenciaga Nylon City Bag
$1,835 via MATCHESFASHION.COM
Kylie's a bit older now, but her love for Balenciaga classics continues.
Balenciaga Baby Daim City Bag
$1,835 via FWRD
All-suede-everything is a bold look for southern California.
Balenciaga Baby Daim Mini City Bag
$1,325 via FWRD
I tried to cut Kylie's boyfriend Tyga out of as many of these photos
as I could, but sometimes he sneaks in there at an impossible angle.
Balenciaga Traveller Backpack
$1,765 via Balenciaga
There's a lot going on here for an outfit that's made up of relatively few pieces.
Céline Luggage Tote
Kylie isn't much of a Céline fan (not nearly as much as sister Kendall), but, like most rich, famous people, she took a Luggage Tote for a spin a couple times.
Céline Nano Luggage Tote
In any other family, I'd assume Kylie was borrowing from Big Sis, but I think it's save to say there are enough Nano Luggage Totes for everyone in the Kardashian-Jenner household.
Chanel Boy Bag
When Kylie got this bag, she admitted on Instagram that she thought she'd never be the Boy Bag type. We have to agree that this iridescent version is particularly nice, though.
Chanel Metallic WOC Bag
It's been, uh, quite a while since Kylie carried any Chanel classics at all.
Givenchy Antigona Bag
$2,435 via Net-a-Porter
Like the rest of her family, Kylie does not lack for Givenchy options.
Givenchy Croc-Embossed Nubuck Antigona Bag
Shop Givenchy via Saks
Kylie is clearly in the "leggings actually ARE pants" camp.
Givenchy Mini Pandora Bag
$1,150 via Neiman Marcus
You can make as many anti-Kardashian/Jenner arguments as you want, but I will be forever jealous of their hair.
Givenchy Mini Pandora Box Bag
$1,995 via Nordstrom
I'm fairly sure Kylie was the first person I ever saw carrying this version of the Pandora.
Givenchy Mini Pandora Box Bag
$1,995 via Net-a-Porter
I wonder what it's like to get a free box of Givenchy bags in the mail.
Hermès Birkin
It's impossible to pass from child to woman in the Kardashian-Jenner clan without acquiring a Birkin. It's a rite of passage.
Hermès Birkin
I am totally obsessed with Kylie's black-and-white outfit mixed with a red bag and turquoise nails. It's such a perfect color palette.
Hermès Birkin
I'm always surprised to see one of the sisters carry a tan bag; it's really not their neutral.
Hermès Kelly Cut Clutch
This may be Kylie's first exotic, but I'm willing to bet non-trivial money it won't be her last.
Louis Vuitton Palm Springs Backpack
$1,900 via Louis Vuitton
It strikes me as a good sign for Vuitton that Kylie's carrying one of
its newest bags; she's become something of a youth culture gatekeeper,
and youth culture is often how brands become widely trendy again.
We're not sure whether it was Chanel or Moschino who made this bag, but I'd be shocked if it wasn't one of them.
Moschino Mini Biker Bag
$1,295 via Shopbop
This entire outfit is almost distractingly uncharacteristic of the Kylie we know and love.
Saint Laurent Nano Sac de Jour Bag
$1,990 via Nordstrom
This outfit was part of a whole-family color coordination for Easter,
and it included several SDJs, even though they're not a usual
Kardashian-Jenner pick.
Stella McCartney Falabella Backpack
$1,295 via Barneys
We don't talk much about it, but somehow, almost every star we
profile has one or two Stella bags in her collection. It's almost
uncanny.
