Spring 2025 IT bags under $1000

spring 2025 IT Bags under $1000 from top left: studded bag / boxy tote / belted tote / suede bucket bag / east/west bag / studded strap bucket bag /

This is the golden era of handbags. We are no longer bound to expensive designer handbags adorned with recognizable logos and wannabe status silhouettes. The current IT bag is not recognizable. It is made with quality materials and craftsmanship, and it is an investment which will withstand the test of time. Love that!

Spring 2025 is all about quality, and the handbag styles we are loving right now include slouchy bucket bags, east/west bags, belted totes, studded handbags, boxy bags, mini baguettes, and hobo handbags. In addition, suede, neutral hues, shades of mocha, and flat studs or grommets are hotter than hot right now. So, look in your closet and pull out what you have stored and what you have been wearing for the past few years, because they are still hot!

When it comes to investing in a new handbag this season, this golden era of handbags is offering us plenty of options priced well under $1000, $500, and even $200. Love that!

So, without further ado, here are my favorite spring 2025 handbags priced under $1000 which also make fabulous investment handbags.

What is your favorite handbag this season?

Chanel nail polish spring 2025 act II Camelia Futura Collection

chanel nail polish spring 2025 review

Chanel nail polish spring 2025 Camelia Futura Collection: Chanel Pionniere / Chanel Utopiste /

Chanel has given us a second collection for the spring 2025 season. Love that! In this collection, which is a modern interpretation of Coco Chanel’s favorite flower, the Camelia, we have an avant-garde pink, and an off-season black.

Pink is one of the hottest nail polish colors for the spring season, so it is only natural that Chanel would give us their own, fresh version of this classic spring hue. Chanel Pionniere is a medium pink with sparkles. Love that! It has a gelly-like color which is roughly ten percent sheer, and ninety percent opaque. It offers a spicey version of pink for the spring season.

When it comes to black nail polish, we normally associate this hue with cooler weather. Black nail polishes are typically found in fall, winter, and holiday collections. Chanel has decided to place a heavily glittered version of black in their act II spring collection. Fun!

This is a beautiful black nail polish, with opaque coverage and tons of sparkles. It is festive and evokes an upbeat vibe; despite being black. I am trying to wrap my head around this dark hue in the spring, but nevertheless, I do love this version of black.

I tested out both spring nail polish colors with one base coat and two coats of color. So, without further ado, here is the nail polish from the Camelia Futura Collection for the spring 2025 season from Chanel.

Outfit inspo early spring style

Outfit idea from top left: wide leg jeans (avl in petite, reg, and tall sizes) / spring sweater / hoop earrings / necklace / fisherman sandals / east/west bag /

Spring is upon us, so it is time to put some spring outfit ideas together! Shades of mocha are hot this year, so these classic and neutral pieces are perfect to mix and match now. Wide leg jeans are still hot, so this neutral pair is perfect for a spring look while keeping us warm during the cool spring weather.

Fisherman sandals are a hot trend this year and so is the east/west bag. These are two IT styles which will play well with all the spring and summer trends. Love that!

This spring season is all about chic and understated looks. Stay away from tight clothing, logos, and flashy looks.
