top ten handbag trends for fall 2016

My five favorite handbags from the top 10 handbag trends for fall 2016 from top left: box bag / snakeskin black shoulder bag / mini bag / saddle bag / circle bag

The fall 2016 fashion season is upon us. Stores are starting to stock their shelves with the very best from the fall  2016 runways, and this means it is time to think about the top 10 handbag trends for fall 2016.

The fall 2016 runways gave us many fashion trends to think about for the upcoming cool weather season. The 1970s are still in full swing, and neutrals are the new color palette. Pops of autumn hues such as burgundy, navy, dark mustard, and hunter green will add dimension to our charcoal, black, and white ensembles. Texture, embellishments, and flowing silhouettes will shape the way we put our outfits together. Best of all, our handbags will complete our looks; showing the world how fabulous we really are. Because let’s face it, you are never fully dressed without a handbag, and a bright smile!

There are some handbag trends for fall 2016 which are continuing from last season, and there are some which are emerging for now, and the fashion future. Whichever handbag trend catches your eye, you are sure to find at least one trend in fall handbags to suit your own personal style. So, without future adieu, here are the top ten handbag trends for fall 2016.

Graphic Dimension

Cross Body Satchels

Circle Bags

Fringe, Tassels, and Embellishments

Saddle Bags with a 1970s vibe

Mini Bags

Snakeskin

Box Bags (Train Cases) and Camera Bags

Logo Prints

Smartphone Mini Bags

 

The size of one’s handbag has always been up for debate every fashion season. For the fall 2016 season, we are starting to see a shift from small and mini bags, to acceptance of large bags. As slouchy handbags make a resurgence in the background, signalling a possible rise of the hobo bag in future seasons, medium and large handbags are starting to move into mini-bag territory. So if the mini bag has become a complete bore to you, and cross body satchels put you to sleep, think about investing in a Circle Bag, a Smartphone Mini Bag, a logo fabric bag with vintage appeal, or a soft and slouchy bag such as this one by Proenza Schouler.

There you have it! The top 10 handbag trends for fall 2016. Which handbag trend tickles your fancy? I am looking forward to the Circle Bag trend, the continuing Saddle Bag trend, and getting back into logo fabrics. Perhaps a Smartphone Mini Bag would be handy to have around too.

Happy handbag shopping, and stay fabulous 😉


Georgine fall 2016 New York Fashion Week

Georgine sent her fall/winter 2016/2017 collection down the New York Fashion Week runway on February 16, 2016 at the Skylight Clarkson in New York. The collection featured shades of blue, texture, luxurious fabrics, autumn patterns, and lace. It stayed true to Georgine’s style, with an infusion of seasonal, on-trend touches which made the collection downright fabulous!

For fall 2016, designers in New York favored texture, lace, shades of blue, and pops of red. Georgine’s collection delivered on these current trends while offering classic silhouettes, a little bit of Hollywood glamour, and a few edgy touches.

Unfortunately I was unable to attend Georgine’s show this season since I had to fly home from New York Fashion Week early, but thankfully, Georgine’s PR team was able to supply me with these beautiful photos so that I could still share her fall 2016 collection with you! I’m so thankful, the collection looks beautiful!

I am in love with the floral midi skirt paired with the fur-trimmed green top, the navy coat, the red coat, and all of the blue dresses. They are fabulous! Which pieces from the Georgine fall 2016 New York Fashion Week runway are your favorites?
