Geometric Handles
Make your handle the focus of your bag, no matter what silhouette you choose. This season, designers like Roger Vivier have turned the artistic factor up a notch on otherwise classic handbag styles with statement-making geometric handles.
Raffia
Always a seasonal favorite, consider a raffia bag this season. It’s just the right amount of beach vibes, while still remaining totally appropriate for the streets you call home.
Feathers
Birds of a feather really do flock together, especially when it comes to this retro 1960s-inspired trend that’s back for all your head-turning eveningwear needs this Spring.
Fanny Packs
Function and fashion come together in this season's army of fanny packs. With practicality top of mind, sporty meets utilitarian in these waist-bound bags that manage to be edgy and fun at the same time.
Cloud Pouches
It’s hard not to have your head in the clouds when it comes to these bags. A soft, pillowy silhouette, the handbag style does double duty as a secret catch-all, fitting more than you could imagine in its cloud-like grasps.
Oversized Totes
These totes are not your average plastic bag, making grocery shopping and city-strolling all the more fun — and chic. With bright colors, PVC coverings, large shapes, and more, you’ll have your very own Mary Poppins bag at your fashionable disposal this season.
