Fall is upon us! If you haven’t thought about a fall handbag yet, now is the time! While black handbags, lady bags, and logo bags are still going strong this fall season, another new trend in the handbag world has emerged; the anytime sequin bag.

Sequin handbags are a classic evening bag look. They normally are found on small handbags we carry to semi-formal and formal events. While daytime sequins have been a recent trend on items such as jackets, skirts, and tops, the fall 2018 season is making sequins as common as cotton. Get ready to sparkle and shine!

The fall 2018 handbag trends are bringing us two extremes; classic black bags and understated lady bags, as well as “look at me” styles such as logo bags and sequin bags. There really isn’t anything in between. This season, you need to decide; will you be a classic fashionista, or street style paparazzi bait?

For the fall 2018 season, the sequin handbag trend is taking us to new heights. You can pair a sequin fanny pack with jeans and a tee on casual days to up your game, or you can toss a large sequin tote over your shoulder stuffed with your kids necessities when you head to the park. Sequin handbags for fall 2018, you can be fabulous at the supermarket, or out on the town! Love that!

You will find sequins on everything that is hot in handbags for fall 2018 such as fanny packs, lady bags, black bags, and classic flap shoulder bags. If you want to add sass to your casual look, just add a sequin bag!

Sequins are not limited to fall 2018 handbags, you will find sequins this season on everything from daytime shoes to blazers, to skirts, to every type of clothing imaginable. This sparkling accent can be worn to brunch, lunch, dinner, or for formal affairs. Sequins are everywhere, at any time of the day. Get ready to sparkle!

As you know, I am a huge fan of Brahmin handbags. So, when Brahmin announced their new fall 2018 collection, I instantly fell in love with the new mini version of their beloved Priscilla satchel.

Despite it’s small stature, the Brahmin Mini Priscilla is quite roomy. As you can see in the photos above, the Brahmin Mini Priscilla easily fits my wallet, sunglasses, phone, lipstick and key with plenty of room left inside the bag. The interior of the bag offers a slip pocket and lipstick pocket, along with a zipper pocket. These are great for placing your phone inside the bag, or keeping smaller items neat and tidy.

The exterior of the mini version of the Brahmin Priscilla offers a hidden pocket on the back of the bag which is great for keeping a phone handy, theater tickets, or anything you want to reach quickly. The shoulder strap is detachable and easily clips onto the front and back of the bag. The strap is also adjustable so it can be worn over the shoulder or cross body. Love that!

I love detaching the shoulder strap and wearing the bag as a small satchel when I am more dressed up. It’s very chic and offers a semi-formal look. When the shoulder strap is attached, I feel like the bag is perfect as a daily bag, or as a casual purse. I love the versatility!

The croc stamping offers a high gloss which is very modern and chic. I love the elegant look of the bag; and all the compliments I receive when I wear it! This is a great workhorse bag if you don’t need to carry files or a laptop. It works perfectly for day-to-day life and can easily transition into the evening. Love!

Fall 2018 handbag trends: saddle bags and top flap satchels

fall 2018 handbag trends saddle bags top flap satchels

Fall 2018 handbag trends saddle bags, top flap satchels or lady bags, from top left: striped saddle bag / black lady bag satchel (under $400) / blue and black pattern saddle bag (under $400) / ivory saddle bag / cobalt blue lady bag satchel / red lady bag satchel (I have this bag in black and love it!) /

The lady bag is back; and so is the saddle bag. The top flap satchel, otherwise known as the Lady Bag, is the hottest silhouette in structured bags this fall 2018 season. When it comes to a more casual look, look for the top flap shoulder bag aka the saddle bag.

There are plenty of fall 2018 handbag trends to look forward to this season. While we have logo bags still going in full force, belt bags taking the place of the cross body bag, black bags being the color of the season, and western inspired designs on bags; the classic lady bag and saddle bag are most likely in your closet. This makes them classic enough to invest in while, not worrying about longevity over the years.

Lady bags and saddle bags are classic; this makes them sound investments when it comes to handbag purchases this fall season. A lady bag can be used season after season for dressier occasions and for the office. A saddle bag is a classic, casual stand-by which is always in style.

If you can only buy one bag this fall 2018 season, look for a flap bag. If you plan to use your bag for work, or prefer a structured bag, then the Lady Bag is your bag of the season. If you are more casual and carefree, opt for a saddle bag. When it comes to color, the color of fall 2018 is black; but feel free to grab a color or pattern which speaks to you. Sometimes the best way to spice up a neutral wardrobe is with a colorful handbag!
