The fall season is here, and there are so many IT bags to covet this season! Thankfully, you don’t have to break the bank to snag a fabulous bag for the cool weather season. There are plenty of hotter than hot handbags for fall priced well under $1000. Love that!

The baguette is still a hot, emerging handbag silhouette; and no bag under $1000 is better than the Coach baguette. My favorite style is this beautiful black version; oh, and this one is actually under $500. Love that even more!

Camera bags, and anything Gucci, have an IT factor to them; so it comes as no surprise this camera bag by Gucci is a hot IT bag. Love that it is priced under $1000! Plus, pastels are an emerging color trend from Milan, so this bag is ahead of the fashion curve. The only problem it, which color to choose?

Mansur Gavriel can do no wrong. Pretty much all of their bags are IT bags. This pouch clutch is so hot right now, it might burn you if you touch it! Ha! Of course, their classic bucket bag is a must-have. This two-tone tote bag is the newest bag from Mansus Gavriel’s line-up, and it’s going to be a hit. You might want to grab yours before the wait-list begins.

Here in Silicon Valley, Issey Miyake is a cult favorite. The BAO collection is on the arm of every fashionable women coming out of a home priced well over $5 mil. You can spot them also on the arms of ladies emerging from their Tesla’s. This is the current IT bag in the San Francisco Bay Area right now! This fall blue is my favorite hue. Which color do you choose?

Lastly, geometric bags are hot for fall, and this bag by Staud is the best way to rock the trend this fall season. Love that it’s priced well under $500! I can’t decide which color I like best. Which one do you prefer?

BAF Weekly IT List from top left: blue sweater / fall nail polish / blue jam jar (on major sale!) / loafer slides (under $150) / bucket bag /

The BAF Weekly IT List is here! This week was the first official week of fall, and I am here for it! The nights are a little bit cooler, pumpkin spice everything is on store shelves, and we can all walk around in our fall clothing without feeling out of season. Loving fall! Now, if temperatures can just stay low, and NOT go into the 90’s next week as predicted, the beginning of fall would be perfect. Fingers crossed!

Now, let’s chat about this week’s five IT items! This blue sweater is absolutely amazing. I am waiting for cooler weather so I can wear mine all the time. It comes in other colors too; so pretty! It’s the perfect go-to pull-over for fall. Love!

None of us can get enough of these classic loafer slides for fall. This pair is priced under $150, so if you haven’t picked up a pair yet, what are you waiting for? Snap them up now!

If you haven’t updated your nails for the fall season, do it now! This is my favorite nail polish hue of the season, and it’s a classic! You can wear it now and well into the holiday season. Love that!

Are you a Fiestaware fan? I recently became one. This cute little square jam jar is a limited edition Fiestaware piece, and it’s on major sale right now! Snap one up in your choice of color ASAP before they are gone! This would also make a great holiday gift if you have a Fiestaware fan, or colorful housewares fan, on your list. Can’t beat that price! I snapped one up in Turquoise, Lapis, and Mulberry. Love!

Lastly, this classic bucket bag is a must-have IT bag. If you don’t already own one, now is a great time to invest in one to wear now and forever. I love mine! It’s a total workhorse bag I can stuff multiple water bottles inside, as well as an entire cardigan sweater. It’s roomier than it appears; and very strong!!! Perfect when you have kids like me, or just need to carry a lot of stuff around.

Pouch Clutch at three price points, from top: Designer IT Bag / IT brand pouch clutch priced under $1000 (this is the one I own and I love it!) / affordable pouch clutch priced under $70 /

Thank you for all the great feedback last week on my new weekly series, designer or deal! This week I thought we would talk about the pouch clutch, which is a hot IT bag right now. There are so many versions out there, it’s hard to pick the right one! So, I thought I would show you the three best versions of the trend.

Of course, you can go for the pouch clutch that started it all; the Bottega Veneta pouch priced just under $3000. There is also the moderately priced version from Mansur Gavriel priced well under $1000. This clutch also has IT bag status on the street, so you can’t go wrong saving a few bucks with this one! I own the black with flamma interior version and I love it. It’s very comfortable to carry around, and it is quite roomy! Love that! Lastly, you can get a ton of bang for your buck with this pouch clutch priced under $70. It’s a great deal; especially if you want to rock the pouch clutch trend but don’t think you’ll wear it often. This is a great choice for occasional use.

The return of the square toe for fall 2020

fall shoe trends square toes

Square toe shoes for fall 2020: black stamped croc pumps / (My toes love these shoes!)

The square toe was a huge shoe trend ten to twelve years ago. Over the past few years it has been trying to make a comeback. For summer 2020, we saw several designers give their sandals a square toe; marking a comeback for the toe shape.

As we move into the fall 2020 season, the square toe is taking the fashion world by storm. Many designers included square toe styles in their collections, giving buyers a choice between more traditional, rounded toes, and the edgier square toe. Which will you choose?

Fall 2020 is giving us a lot of classic looks for the season, so why not mix things up with a square toe? This toe shape is proving to be able to make a comeback right now. This signals potential growth for the trend as we move in the 2021 seasons. We will start to see more shoes in the winter and spring seasons reflecting the squared off toe box on boots, loafers, pumps, and sandals. It’s the hottest shoe trend in town!

I absolutely adore the square toe for the fall. This shoe style offers more room for your toes! A roomy toe box is key when you do a lot of walking and standing. Toes can sit in a more natural state within the shoe, instead of being crammed into a pointy toe which does nothing but cause pain. Loving this trend!
