Fringe

Fringe

Why we love it: Seventies-inspired style isn't just for festivals anymore. The trend is back in a big way — even more so this Fall — and we're crowning fringed-anything somewhat of an investment piece. The extra bits of material are a great way to add some flair to even the most ordinary of outfits.

Mini

Mini

Why we love it: Large enough to fit the essentials but small enough that it won't weigh us down, the mini bag was made for nights out or days when you don't feel like lugging around your extralarge work tote. Plus, Spring's new styles are just smaller versions of our favorite designs, rather than simple crossbodies, making them look that much more chic and on-trend.

Printed

Printed

Why we love it: Silly sayings and out-there graphics add an element of fun to our look, and it's time to make a statement with more than just our clothes. These patterned pieces will push us outside of our comfort zone and force us to mix and match. If our icons can do it, so can we.

Bucket

Bucket

Why we love it: This bag style is timeless, not to mention effortless, easy, and made for everyday use. After seeing how coveted Mansur Gavriel's model was, nearly every designer hopped on board and produced a bucket of their own, making this shape the hottest of the season.

Circle

Circle

Why we love it: It's not too often we come across a bag shape that's bold and different while being sleek and polished, and circles are just that. These cool crossbodies are just what our collection is missing, and quirky designs like baskets and fruit are perfect for those carefree, warm-weather seasons.

Ladylike Structure

Ladylike Structure

Why we love it: A part of us loves that classic, Audrey Hepburn vibe and enjoys anything that feels superfeminine. Another, possibly larger part is always looking for the perfect work bag. This style is the best of both worlds.

Oversize Clutch

Oversize Clutch

Why we love it: No more running out of space to hold stuff when it comes to your night-out bag — these extralarge babies have enough room for makeup, phones, keys, wallets, and more. They're also much more casual than those other itty-bitty clutches you own, making them perfect for grab and go and a killer street style look.
