Handbag capsule wardrobe winter 2023

The winter season is here! This means it is time to switch into my winter handbag capsule wardrobe for the new year. For the winter season, the bags I plan to rotate are simple. The winter season is short, and I plan to attend casual events as well as keep things more on the casual side. This means I will be reaching for handbags which are casual, practical, and on trend.

The hobo is still going strong, as well as moon shaped handbags. For the winter season, I plan to wear my caramel hobo handbag when I need a roomy bag, and my smaller, moon shaped handbag when I am in a trendier mood. Love them both!

Of course, shoulder bags are hot this year too. I plan to rock the green handbag when I want a pop of color, and the black one when it is time to be classic. Both of these shoulder bags can also be worn cross body when I am running errands or I want to be hands-free; even though cross body bags are over, sometimes it is nice to have that versatility.

Hobo Handbags

Classic Shoulder Bags

As we move into 2023, handbags trends are moving into quieter territory. Steer clear of logo bags, and any bag that is trying to show off or grab attention. The quiet handbag is all the rage. Invest in bags this year which are high quality, versatile, practical, and simple. Colors are fine, as well as neutrals. As long as the bags are simple and chic.

Size matters in 2023. Oversized bags are over. Of course, when you are going somewhere and need a tote bag, by all means, wear a tote! That being said, wear the smallest bag you can get away with and carry what you need to bring with you when you leave the house. Mini, small and medium bags are what’s hot for 2023.

Rule of thumb for 2023: Small, simple, and chic.
