Favorite Fall Handbags

Oh Monday, we meet again! Anyone else feel that dread each Monday? They’re such downers! BUT on the upside it’s the best season of the year and today I’m talking about one of the best accessories a gal can have #itsgoodtobeagirl Since the title of the post kind of gives it away haha, I’m sure you already know, I’m talking about handbags. To me they are the absolute BEST accessory and my favorite to purchase. Each season I cannot wait to scoop one or two up! This season I seemed to have picked just a couple more up than normal. I really can’t help it, I come by it naturally – thank you grandma! 

So today I’m chatting about my six favorite bags this season. Some are old, most are new. Therefore if there’s one you’re eyeing you’ll easily be able to snatch it up for yourself!

This cross body is one of my daily go to bags. Especially on the weekend when I’m running out to do something real quick. I love the neutral color and quilted detail. It’s easy and simple yet super chic thanks to that quilted detail and gold hard wear. Everyone needs a neutral bag like this in their life!

This is an oldie but goodie. Also a constant go to for me. When I’m wanting to dress up a look, I always reach for this bag. This satchel provides the perfect pop of color while still being classic thanks to it’s structure and hardware. I also love the variety of ways it can be carried. Over the shoulder, across the body, or by the top handle. Making the handbag extremely versatile. P.S. this bag is seriously quality and I HIGHLY recommend it!

Obsessed. Seriously, out of control obsessed with this bag. Between the color, fabrics, shape, hardware, and built in card holder, I’m literally in handbag heaven with this beauty. I currently wear this handbag more than any other. While it provides a pop of color, the darker shade also allows it to act as a neutral. Easily matching with most items in my closet {hello blue jeans, perfect combination}.

Everyone needs a leopard bag in their life. Seriously it’s a must. You haven’t lived until you have one. Alright that might be a bit of an exaggeration. BUT your wardrobe really hasn’t lived until it’s been combined with some leopard. That one is a true! So many items in your closet will come to life with a little leopard on the side. The one I’m wearing is J.Crew last season but this season they have upgraded version and it’s to die for, shop here

#50Styles50States, Old Navy Pleated Tie Neck Swing Dress, Old Navy Classic Marled Crew Neck Sweater, Old Navy Oversized Flannel Scarf, Old Navy Suede Double Zip Crossbody

I picked up this little clutch on a whim and haven’t looked back since. The texture is fabulous for the fall/winter season and the color couldn’t be better. The gray is very muted allowing the bag to take backseat to the outfit. It’s the perfect compliment piece.

You already know how much I love this backpack {read all about it here, if you missed it}. A backpack needs to be at the top of your wish list/shopping list if you don’t already have one. They’re game changers. Especially leather backpacks. They can easily go from day to night, making your life extremely easy. And who doesn’t need life to be easier? Go get it backpack, you won’t regret it, promise.
