Brown Bagging It
Purse trends to carry throughout fall
Style readers, it’s time to celebrate! Gone is the season of the micro-bag, where fitting all your necessities inside required a Tetris-like miracle. Fall/winter bags are all about luxurious style AND practical space. Relaxed totes, east-west silhouettes, and structured top-handles are all in demand, as well as tactile materials such as suede and woven leather.
Leading the most-wanted list this winter is the elegantly simple brown suede bag. For a little extra arm candy, layer on a chunky swag charm à la Jane Birkin. And hey, throw in that extra lipstick — you have room!
