Well, it is quite obvious that 2023 was all about chic, timeless style with a little bit of sass on our nails; with the exception of pink, that is a very classic hue!
As we move into the new year, timeless handbags, clothing and accessories will continue to rule the fashion landscape. We will also start to see more pastels as we move into spring and summer mixed in with soft neutrals. What is interesting about this, is that you already shopped this way in 2023! So, chances are, your wardrobe is ready for the new year. Isn’t investment dressing fabulous? Love!

Winter handbags under $1000

This is a beautiful time in handbag history. Since the anonymous handbag is thriving, we have been blessed with many handbag brands who not only concentrate on high quality and craftsmanship, but they also keep their designs free from loud logos and flair. Many of these beautiful bags speak for themselves and are priced fairly instead of priced for a label. This is beautiful because we, as the consumer, have a large range of handbags to choose from which are not only timeless, but are hotter than hot; and priced under $1000. Love that!
Some of my favorite luxurious handbags priced under $1000 include Coach, Mansur Gavriel, and Demellier. In addition, there are luxury brands with a few handbag styles we can snag for under $1000. These brands include Mulberry and Tory Burch.
As we move into 2024, handbag trends are still logo-less, with clean lines, high quality materials, and impeccable craftsmanship. Handbags should be timeless, and blend into your wardrobe for years to come; not just one season. We will continue to look for handbags in neutral hues which can withstand the test of time, and brands which have a good quality reputation in 2024.
The handbag styles which will be important in 2024 include shoulder bags, east/west totes, north/south totes, satchels, lady bags, doctor bags, and hobo bags. Look for soft leather, floppy silhouettes, and structure. There is a lot of leeway when it comes to handbag styles! Go for what fits your lifestyle and taste. Love that!
Here are a few of my favorite handbags for winter 2024 priced under $1000:
What are your favorite handbag styles for the winter 2024 season and as we move into the new year?
Thanks for stopping by!
