Trust us to come up with an excuse to buy a new bag for every season! We have scoured the runways for this season’s hottest bag trends, and ranked them with our top 10 handbags from The Luxury Closet.
Chains
Chain handbags are back in this Winter and this gorgeous burnt-orange Gucci handbag is one of our favorites. The warm and festive color, matched with golden hardware is the perfect way to brighten up your darkened Winter wardrobe.
Velvet
If you hadn’t already noticed, we’re pretty obsessed with velvet this season and this navy Chanel piece is no exception. The regal blue and contrasting gold chain gives off an opulence that Kate Middleton’s engagement ring would envy.
Sequin
You can’t survive Winter without a shiny new handbag. That’s a TLC law. This all-over sequin number from Louis Vuitton is guaranteed to have you feeling festive over the holidays. It’s perfect for parties with it’s handy wrist-strap and if nothing else, it’s a portable disco ball!
Metallic
Keeping with shiny things, this Chanel handbag is crafted in metallic animal print and we can’t get enough of it. The giraffe print is glamorous, while the structure is classy… Really it’s just ticking all of the boxes.
Backpacks
Travelling over Winter? Backpacks are a great way of making sure you travel comfortably, and can fit everything in your hand luggage! School-style trends don’t have to be childish with this vibrant mustard-yellow handbag from Valentino. Rock this studded piece with some sweats and the last thing anyone will notice are the bags under your eyes.
Exotic skins
All hail the Birkin. Every luxury shopper has one of these on their Winter wishlist and this incredible purple crocodile edition will make sure no-one misses it.
Fur
Whether you’re pro-faux or prefer the real thing, no outfit is complete without something warm and fuzzy. Take this Fendi hobo handbag as an example. Ear muffs, hats, coats and scarves have been done before, so step out with a fur handbag and that way it doubles up as a teddy bear.
Satchel
Adding to the school-style trend, satchel bags are also back this season. A great size for taking an extra cardigan or perhaps your hat and gloves, with the added bonus of versatile straps. Leave it to Louis Vuitton to steal the show on this classic design.
Patent
Add a sense of occasion to your handbag choice with patent leather. The glossed material is perfect for making a statement, and this cherry-red Gucci tote has us reaching for our matching Louboutins.
Structured/Boxy
Structured handbags definitely seem to have taken over the A/W runways, as opposed to squishy summer hobos. This silver handbag from Louis Vuitton has doubled up on trends with this boxy metallic tote.
