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!

Handbags for fall are back in black, and while I am playing with cliche’s, black is the new black. hahaa

You might be looking at this and thinking, black is always in fashion! Well, technically it, but for the fall 2018 season, black is the ultimate IT color for your bag. So if you love to invest in classic handbags, this is your season!

Black handbags are fabulous in a variety of styles for the fall 2018 season, but the ultimate fall 2018 handbag trends include fanny packs (aka belt bags), hobo bags (I know-stop trying to make them happen-they aren’t going to happen~but this season they might!), small or mini satchels, saddle bags. and geometric shapes. As long as you find the fall silhouette you love, just grab it in black! It’s as easy as that!

If you like structured or slouchy, this is your season. The slouchy totes and hobos bags are great for relaxed looks, while the structured geometric shapes, mini satchels, and saddle bags will offer the stiffness you desire for work or more formal dressing.

Black is a fabulous color to be in for the fall 2018 season. If you already own a black bag in one of the fall 2018 handbag trends, then you are all set for the season! If not, you can invest in a new bag without worrying too much about the color having a one-season shelf life. A black bag can be worn all year long, and year after year! Love that!

Any type of fabrication is hot for the fall season. You can wear vegan fabrics, smooth leather, soft and slouchy leather, suede, stamped exotics, tweed, or fabric. As long as the silhouette is right, and the color is black, you are ready for the fall season!

Fall 2018 handbag wish list

fall 2018 it bags

from top left: brown shoulder bag / black box bag / brown puzzle tote / black mini tote (under $300) / pink tote bag / blue shoulder bag /

Although the fall 2018 season isn’t quite here yet, it has hit stores with a vengeance. Since I couldn’t possibly walk around in a cozy fall sweater just yet, I could walk around with a new fall 2018 it bag on my arm!

Handbags, aside from nail polish, are the easiest way to feel like you have a head start on fall. Although makeup can also be worn now, the fall 2018 beauty looks are little too dark for our warm summer temperatures; and they look funny with shorts. Whereas nail polish and handbags always seem to be able to transcend seasons, and easily shift us from hot to cool weather with ease. Perhaps that is why I love handbags and nail polish so much!

For the fall 2018 season, we are still seeing circles, geometric shapes, and ties on our bags. In addition, we will begin to see more fringe as the season heads towards winter. When shopping for a fall 2018 handbag, we need to watch for these silhouette trends, as well as look for hues which are easy to wear on a daily basis. Perhaps that is why I am drawn to black and brown bags this year. As shapes become more prominent in the handbag world, I feel the need to counterbalance them with neutral hues.

My fall 2018 handbag wish list is quite long. Unless I win the lottery, I won’t be investing in everything I want. For fall, I plan to pick up a new shoulder bag, and a new tote. The question is, which ones will I choose?
