The spring 2023 season is all about shoulder bags, hobo bags, small top handle bags, and the anonymous handbag. While I am on the hunt for the perfect top handle bag, my spring handbag capsule is full of my shoulder bags and hobo bags which are small or medium in size. They are also my bags without obvious logos.

While many handbags have a logo on them, since designers and brands like to identify themselves, the idea this season is not to wear a bag which screams the designers’ name. If the logo is large, and part of the design, then it is too loud for spring 2023. The idea is to have a bag people will have look closely at to identify, or even ask you about. That is the anonymous handbag.

In addition to the anonymous handbag, the size this season is small to medium. While the runways have also shown oversized bags you can fit the kitchen sink inside, the streets have not taken to the trend. If you want to try and bring it to the streets, power to you, but remember, you will need to allocate extra time in your schedule for finding your car keys. Those bags are huge!

Happy spring! I normally organize my capsule wardrobe a couple weeks before the season begins, but this year, the weather has been so wintery, spring was not on my radar and my capsule wardrobe was a little slow! In order to adjust to this year’s wintery weather pattern, my spring capsule wardrobe is a bit warmer than in spring season’s past.

This spring, I am incorporating knits which I will wear a layering tee underneath. In addition, these knits can easily be topped with a blazer or jacket to stay warm. Why is it so cold this year? Ugh. . .

Thankfully, blazers are still a hot trend as menswear continues to dominate the runways and influence the streets. This blazer has been a mainstay in my wardrobe over the past three years, as it is a classic tweed blazer which plays well with any color scheme. Love that!

As I move away from skinny jeans, I have fallen in love with the jeans from Express since they offer short lengths. You can read my full review here. These two pairs in the photo above will be perfect for the spring season.

Classic jewelry is always in style, and this year it is the ultimate jewelry style to wear. I am in love with these silver pieces from Lois Hill, you can read more about the designer here.

Stay tuned for more spring coverage!
