Spotlight on Bags

Investment Handbags
Like a fine wine, an investment bag only improves with age and this season brings a choice of timeless options to covet. From smart shoulder bags in timeless black and white to boxy totes in bold bright colours, AW21’s essential handbags are versatile, practical and eye pleasing. Visit the likes of Michael Kors, Furla and Coach and opt for styles with a loud-and-proud or studiously preppy feel.  

Statement Handbags
AW21 is all about bold unmissable colours you can spot a mile off and a statement bag is the ideal way to adopt the trend. Taking cues from the vivid hues lighting up the womenswear runways, handbags are turning eye-wateringly bright for AW21 – so don’t hold back. Marigold yellow, letterbox red and cobalt blue are all on trend. Check out the selection in Coccinelle or Furla and plump for strong, standout, shades.  

Clutch Handbags
The little black dress is experiencing a revival for AW21 and clutch bags are following suit. Rather than the all-out sparkle we’ve seen in previous seasons, this year it’s all about accessories with an edgier feel (think 1990s grunge vibes). Opt for clutches with studded silver or heavyset chain details, being careful to sidestep gold accents. Make a beeline for Armani and Karl Lagerfeld and seek out the rockiest clutch you can find.
