Continuing her streak as the best/only good thing about 2017, Céline Dion birthed a new collection of handbags today as part of her much-anticipated lifestyle brand launch. So far, nine styles ranging from $78 to $298 are available exclusively at Nordstrom, including a clutch, a backpack, and several types of totes. And according to WWD, Dion’s collection will eventually include about 50 styles overall.
Now, I know what you’re thinking: Much like the French-Canadian icon’s impressive vocal range, that’s a lot to take in! But don’t fret; I’m here to help you figure out which of Dion’s new bags will suit you best. All you have to do is pick your favorite Céline Dion single!
If your favorite Céline Dion song is “My Heart Will Go On”:

Still get choked up every time you listen to Titanic’s epic love theme? Like the ocean itself, this bag is very blue and very huge — and costs a hell of a lot less than Rose’s massive diamond.
If your favorite Céline Dion song is “Beauty and the Beast”:

One side’s sweet and looks great in gold; the other may seem plain, but it’s worth a second look. Sound familiar?
If your favorite Céline Dion song is “It’s All Coming Back to Me Now”:

Just as Céline can’t shake the memories of her long-lost lover, certain trends — like the ’70s-style hobo bag, which cycles in and out of favor on a near-annual basis — just keep coming back (to you now).
If your favorite Céline Dion song is “Because You Loved Me”:

With its three (count ‘em — three!) interior compartments, structured shape, and metal feet, this is one seriously organized, sturdy-ass office bag. In other words, it’ll be your strength when you’re weak (i.e. hungover, sleep-deprived, and/or hangry).
If your favorite Céline Dion song is “The Power of Love”:

With lines like “Whenever you reach for me / I'll do all that I can” and “Lost is how I'm feeling / Lying in your arms,” Céline’s sweetest love song deserves an equally sweet bag. This tote decorated with gold honeycombs ought to fit the bill — and the fact that it comes in the color of love doesn’t hurt, either.
If your favorite Céline Dion song is “I Drove All Night”:

Big enough to fit a small laptop, snacks, reading material, and more, this backpack is ideal for commuters — even if you’ll be stuck in transit for hours.
If your favorite Céline Dion song is “That’s the Way It Is”:

Nordstrom calls the Octave “the pièce de résistance of Céline's debut handbag collection” — so why not pair it with the singer’s musical magnum opus? (Yes, “That’s the Way It Is” is the best Céline Dion song. Do not fight me on this. You will lose.)
If your favorite Céline Dion song is “All By Myself”:

You seriously need to rethink your song choice. But here, have a crossbody bag.
