Get your shopping wish-list together for spring 2024’s handbag collection!
The styles on the runways this year are diverse, ranging from practical and functional to whimsical and fun.
The Paris and New York shows have wrapped up and we’ve had some time to digest the go-to handbag trends for spring summer 2024.
Handbags and accessories are the real money makers of any fashion business.
Women prefer investing in purses, jewelry and shoes, to investing in designer clothing, because there's always a chance that measurements will change and the clothing will no longer fit.
A great handbag will always fit. Handbags are also a great choice for investing in trends because they're usually smaller and cost less than, say, a statement coat.
This spring, designers from Bottega Veneta to Tory Burch played with unusual proportions, materials, and style to stand out from the mass competition.
If you're not in the market for a Tory Burch or other designer handbag, you can still make use of the most popular spring bag trends.
We've distilled the trends into categories and have vegan suggestions to help you make fashionable, yet ethical, choices for spring 2024.
There are too many bag trends to name, so we have rounded up our favorites for spring 2024 (many of which are also in style for summer 2024), along with our suggestions for vegan versions.
Our picks for these 2024 spring bag trends will keep you fashionable while keeping animals safe.
