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!

Fall 2018 fashion trends: western inspiration

fall 2018 fashion trends western style

Fall 2018 fashion trends western inspiration from top left: black denim western style shirt / western style dress / studded brown saddle bag / plaid western style shirt / ivory western style booties / ivory saddle bag (under $300!!) / black studded saddle bag / distressed black western style bootie (I bought this pair for fall-love!)

The fall 2018 fashion trends are starting to hit store shelves, and one of the biggest breakthrough style trends to make it from the runways to the streets is western inspiration. Store buyers are loving boots and booties with cowboy details; and they are loving studded bags, turquoise belt buckles, and rodeo-ready apparel. Yee-haw!

This is a fun trend to rock this fall. Instead of a regular tee with jeans on casual days, we can all up our games by adding a western inspired accessory or article of clothing to our everyday looks to make our wardrobes fresh, and hot off the runway. Love this!

I’m not one to sport a western shirt, but I do love the cowboy boot inspired booties, belt buckles, and studded bags. What can I say, I am an accessories girl! I already purchased this belt, which happens to be on sale, and this pair of booties. Both items are on my list to wear at New York Fashion Week next month!

If you already own a saddle bag, you’re set when it comes to western inspired handbags for fall! The saddle bag is a classic western handbag and works perfectly with the seasons trends. If not, then look for one with studded details for fall 2018. Cowboy boots are a classic boot style, chances are you have a timeless pair in your closet, if not, why not invest in a pair! If full boots aren’t your thing, western inspired booties are hot this fall season. Look for one with a western silhouette and modern flair like this pair.

fall 2018 handbag trends black handbags from top left: stamped croc mini satchel (under $500) / small cross body bag / top handle circle bag / saddle bag / slouchy vegan tote (under $1000) / north south hobo bag /

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!
