SLOUCHY CHIC
Embrace the return of big bags! Soft leather and relaxed shapes have been spotted in trending bag designs. This comfortable and practical style is so versatile that it fits all occasions, be it for a day in the office, a night-out or a staycation. Slouchy bags have never been sexier, and we are loving it.
Santa Croce Big Forest Green, Dragon Diffusion
Handwoven with buffalo calf leather straps, this slouchy bag exudes sophistication and elegance. Designed in Brussels and crafted in India, the bag will soften and develop a one-of-kind patina over time. As a good wish for safe travels, an antiqued Saint Christopher medal charm is hand-sewn on the inside—a subtle touch of luxury and authenticity.
Primula Shoulder Bag L Nero, Furla
The hobo bag allows you to throw in everything you need and still has room to fit more. Great for everyday use, the Furla Primula is made of grained calf leather embellished with an arch logo hardware as a statement, and is a must-have if you want to jump on the big bag trend this year.
QUIET LUXURY IS THE WAY
Understated fashion has been gaining momentum since Gwyneth Paltrow’s courtroom appearances in a series of elegant outfits. The term “quiet luxury” went viral on social media, which resonates with the desire for refined material with minimal accents. Here are some classy bags to match your new aesthetic.
Marcie Clutch, Chloé
This new silhouette revisits Chloé’s iconic Marcie line. The design blends a feminine aesthetic with a 70s folk spirit and just the right amount of equestrian appeal. You can carry this clutch in hand or on your shoulder thanks to the removable and adjustable strap. The perfect go-with-everything bag that pairs well with classic preppy outfits.
Check Canvas Shoulder Bag, Burberry
Speaking of preppy style, Burberry always delivers. This shoulder bag revives an iconic 90s silhouette with the British label’s archival Burberry Check and is finished with a sleek buckled flap. A perfect addition to elevate your Y2K-inspired outfits.
CHECK THE “BUCKET” LIST
2023 is a great year for bucket bag lovers as we see many exciting and innovative designs popping up on the runway. Whether in natural canvas, bright colored suede, or classic leather, a bucket bag is always a promising investment.
Sense Bucket Bag, Chloé
The elegant day bag can be styled as a cross-body bag or a handbag with a sophisticated yet relaxed touch. Crafted from smooth calfskin with gold-toned hardware, the bag features a delicately embroidered Chloé logo on the handle. Its feminine and sleek shape will always be in style.
The Leather Bucket Bag, Marc Jacobs
This structured bucket bag adds a playful touch to the classic design, leaning more to the street fashion side of the spectrum. Adorned with branded embossing with textured rope handle and metallic hardware, this Marc Jacobs’ bucket bag is undoubtedly a statement piece to add to your wardrobe.
