Every season, I try to invest in one new, high quality bag that I will use for years and I think fall bags might be my favorite. This season, I’ve gotten two that I just can’t live without. There are still a few more I really want, so I wanted to share all of my fall favorites here.
Satchel:
I’ve already completely gushed over this bag in another post, so I won’t repeat myself, but this bag is the PERFECT fall bag. The wine color paired with the clean structure make for a great bag in any setting. Its size and style makes it appropriate for a work setting, while its fun pop of color makes it great to spice up a casual look as well. This bag will definitely be my go to this season!
Backpack: Vera Bradley Quilted Amy
I’ve already make my obsession with backpacks clear, but I just had to share my all time favorite with you: the Vera Bradley quilted leather backpack. I didn’t share it before because it’s new, but this bag is everything. The smooth, buttery leather is not what you’d expect from Vera Bradley since they’re new to the leather game, but they totally did this right. The quilted effect gives the bag some interest and the functionality of this great bag can’t be beat. Get it in black for the perfect fall backpack.
Clutch:
What’s special about Gigi New York clutches is their wide array of colors, the fun tassels, and the gorgeous, exotic textures. I own one in the stone color and the neutral tone goes with everything. Although I’m not much of a clutch girl, when I do wear one, this is it.
Crossbody: Chanel
Let’s be honest: I can’t afford Chanel. And even if I could, I would probably feel guilty paying $5,000 for a bag. I mean, I could feed a village with that. But thankfully there are stores like Bella Bag where I can trade in my old designer bags for new (to me) bags. Which is exactly what I plan to do very soon! These gently used designer bags are in excellent condition & hey, no one has to know that you weren’t the first owner!
Tote:
Every time I wear this bag, I have to fight off all the people clamoring after the beauty. Well, maybe that’s a slight exaggeration, but for real, I get compliments nonstop on this one. The gorgeous print is fun, but still clean due to the black and white color palette. It’s the perfect fall tote that I will definitely continue to wear into winter.
What is your favorite bag this season?

I’m still incredibly partial to my J.W. Hulme crossbody bag in cream. It’s not a bright summer white, so I feel it’s almost a year-round color. And the lighter hue really pops against the sea of blacks, burgundy, and browns going on right now.

Such beautiful handbags picks! I don’t usually buy a lot of bags but the one time of year that I am tempted is fall! Im particularly loving structured bags in an oxblood color for this time of year.

Right?! Fall is so great for bags!

Thanks! I was so on the fence about it, but I am SO GLAD I got it!!

This fall, I’m in love with A Pop of Color by Saint Laurent.
October 21, 2014 @ 12:52 pm
Definitely going to have to look that up!

I really love the Vince Camuto Eli Bag – the color is amazing! I usually pull out a LV Speedy 30 this time of year – but I’m thinking I may need the VC! Thanks!
October 21, 2014 @ 3:15 pm
Isn’t it though?! You should totally order it!
October 17, 2014 @ 8:23 pm
I absolutely love the Vince Camuto Eli satchel! ! You are right it is the perfect color!

Thanks! It really works well – I get to splurge every once in a while and it’s enough to hold me over so I make responsible decisions!

Neat! This is a great post.
October 21, 2014 @ 3:19 pm
Thank you!

I am right with you on this. I haven’t found a Fall bag yet but I really love the Vince Camuto Eli Satchel. The color is perfect!
October 21, 2014 @ 3:20 pm
It really is! I love this bag so much 🙂

I wish I could afford a Chanel as well…forking over $5k at any point in my life for a handbag seems silly. I’d rather have an amazing awesome vacation.
October 21, 2014 @ 3:20 pm
So true! I feel like unless I have too much money that I don’t even know what to do with it all (which I definitely don’t see happening any time soon…), a brand new Chanel bag is not something I’ll ever purchase.

The bag is gorgeous! Love your entire outfit.
October 21, 2014 @ 3:21 pm
Thank you! 🙂

That bag is the most gorgeous colour.

Thanks!

These are all great picks!! I always just stick to black bags so I can carry them all year round. I’m a bit boring ~ sigh.
October 21, 2014 @ 3:22 pm
Well it’s good you found something you like! I actually rarely carry black bags no matter what season it is!
