There are so many fabulous handbags under $1000 for the spring 2024 season, it is unnecessary to spend thousands of dollars on a handbag; unless of course you are absolutely in love with it and know you will get a lot of use out of it, but I digress. . .

The spring 2024 is still all about the anonymous handbag. The ultimate IT bag is a bag no one knows, unless of course, they know! haha

Handbags right now are all about high quality, expert craftsmanship, and no loud logos. Think, investment handbags!

While fun colors are hot for spring, neutrals and black are also hot right now. A fun color can be an investment just as much as a neutral or black handbag. When shopping for a color, look for a hue you love and can picture yourself wearing every spring/summer season. Don’t buy a color because you think it is trendy, buy a shade you love and will cherish for years. That will make a colorful handbag a true investment.

So, without further ado, here are a few fabulous handbags from around the web priced under $1000 and investment worthy. Love!

I hope you find your forever bag under $1000!

Thanks for stopping by!

Shoe capsule wardrobe spring 2024

This spring season is a bit warmer than last year, enabling me to store my boots and reach for lighter footwear. Loafers are a classic style which is still popular for the spring season. This season, I picked up a new pair of loafers which have orthotic-level arch support inside. I don’t need to move my doctor prescribed orthotics into these shoes, they have all the support I need. Love that!

In addition to loafers, ballet flats-also a classic shoe style, are currently the “IT” flat of the season. (They were last year too, so if you have a pair, you are in good shape!). These ballet flats also have built-in orthotics, so I can wear them all day! They are amazing! If you have planter fasciitis too, you might love these shoes!

The loafers and ballet flats are both by Vionic, but they seem to be sized differently. The ballet flats run true to size, but the loafers are slightly large. I needed to size down by a half size.

Onto casual footwear! These rose and white sneakers are so pretty! I love them on casual days. I also love these casual grey boat shoes which are lightweight and ideal on warm days.
