Since spring weather has arrived, I have already pulled out my spring capsule wardrobe for 2026. When it comes to handbags, my tried and true favorites will be front and center. Love!

As far as handbags are concerned for spring 2026, the anonymous handbag is still king. Handbags should be investment worthy and offer high quality construction as well as practicality. Love this era in handbags!

Spring 2026 is all about the belted tote, early 2000’s IT bags, pops of color as well as classic neutral hues, and drawstring bags. While I have a soft and slouchy drawstring pouch bag, I don’t find myself reaching for it, so I didn’t include it in this post.

My favorite handbags for spring 2026 are my small, belted totes, my Balenciaga City bag (moto style), my little green loop bag, this classic black shoulder bag, and my beloved caramel top handle bag. These are the bags I find myself reaching for often, and they are currently getting the most use.

My larger bags will be perfect during the day, and my small shoulder bags will be perfect in the evening, as well as days when I want to carry a smaller bag.

What are your favorite handbags for the spring 2026 season?

Thanks for stopping by!

Fall 2025 continues to be able soft silhouettes, autumn hues, and timeless style. Love! So, for my fall 2025 handbag capsule wardrobe, I am continuing to wear my favorite handbags in various sizes in order to ensure I have something for every occasion.

Suede continues to be hot for fall, so this suede tote and mini bag are perfect for when I need to carry everything and the kitchen sink, or when I barely need anything with me. Also, this black east/west bag is a handbag I find myself reaching for almost every day. It’s the perfect size and comfortable to wear. Love that!

My caramel top handle bag and belted tote are also great sizes for everyday wear, and they elevate even the most casual outfit. Love them both!

Lastly, this high-shine black hobo bag is fabulous for evenings out, and its flat width makes it easy to hide underneath my napkin at a restaurant. Love that!

Shoe capsule wardrobe fall 2025

Fall footwear hasn’t changed much from last year. We are still suede, Mary Janes, flats, neutral hues, and kitten heels. While I don’t have kitten heels at the moment, they are on my wish list, and I should have the other styles covered.

I love these two pairs of flats since they have built in arch support. It makes wearing flats not only bearable but comfortable. I can walk for hours in these shoes! Speaking of arch support, these high heels also have arch support built in! Love that! I plan to get a pair of kitten heel from the brand this season too. They are very comfortable-and I never thought I would say that about a pair of heels!

Now, we just need some fall weather so I can wear my chocolate brown suede boots! Love!

Thanks for stopping by!
