For most women, one really great purse — a cute, versatile something with the ability to hold essentials (and then some) — is more than enough. But Taylor Swift clearly isn't "most women." This style star has a full collection of superfierce options, and while each new addition is better than the last, they almost always have key factors in common.

For starters, Taylor never carries anything too trendy: every bag she owns qualifies as "classic." She also makes sure she can wear it with multiple outfits, from gym gear to fit-and-flares, and really enjoys structured designs. Scroll through for eight options Taylor's toted on multiple occasions, then check out how the singer's style changes with each new boyfriend.

Taylor's newest go-to is a simple black tasseled option, and it's easy to see why: it's the perfect no-fuss, hands-free option to rock while traveling, which is just what she was doing with new boyfriend Tom Hiddleston.

If you're looking for a wear-whenever bag, Taylor's got the perfect pick — she even takes her structured Prada tote to the gym! It's a classic, structured option that'll never go out of style, which means it's a great one to invest in.

If your go-to color scheme is a bit lighter, Taylor also owns the same Prada bag in a beige color. That's how much she loves it!

Taylor isn't above rocking a good ol' Michael Kors bag, and we love the contrasting handle detail. It's simple and statement-making, all at the same time.

This star loves retro options, so it's no surprise she enjoys wearing this black and gold Dolce & Gabbana purse. While it's the perfect complement to a feminine sundress and a red lip, Taylor's been spotted wearing this bag with short shorts and warm Winter looks.

If you assumed Taylor had budget-friendly bags sitting in her closet, you were correct! The singer snagged this satchel from Aldo, and while it's no longer available, this option teaches an important lesson: a sleek, simple design always looks elevated, and darker colors like marsala act as neutrals.

Black doesn't have to be boring — especially if it's embossed leather. This little detail really took Taylor's classic Elizabeth and James bag to the next level.

Sometimes, Taylor opts for a pop of color to pair with her look, much like her trusty Elie Saab crossbody. It's no longer available — this bag is actually from Spring 2012! — but we're ready to follow her lead and try a bright hue.
