Happy National Jewel Day 2024! This fabulous day celebrates jewels, heirloom jewelry, jewelry designers and jewelry in general. This makes today the perfect day to invest in a piece of jewelry you will cherish for a lifetime; and hopefully pass on to the next generation.
To celebrate, I want to give a shout-out to some of my favorite jewelry designers. A few of my favorites include Lois Hill Jewelry, Tiff’s Jeweldom, Kendra Scott, Sheila Falj, Swarovski, and Compass Rose Design. I am able to link to my favorite pieces below through LTK with the exception of Compass Rose Design. Please visit Compass Rose Design at CompassRoseDesign.com.

Spring is in the air! This means the spring 2024 handbag trends are in the air too, and on the streets; and hopefully on your arm! Love this!
The spring season is all about lighter hues, investment dressing, and easy, breezy styles. Your outfits should not be fussy, and your handbags should be equally effortless. So, if you have been collecting investment bags over the years, you are in luck! If not, then this is the time to start your investments.
Spring 2024 is all about the anonymous handbag, and classic styles. If you have been keeping your Chanel bags in boxes in the back of your closet, pull them out! The chain bag is back with a vengeance; not that it ever went out of style, but you get my drift. So, check out this list, pull from your archives, keep what you wore last year, and invest in what you know you will love for years to come.
Chain Bags: The chain strap shoulder bag never went out of style, but it definitely is having a starlight moment. Pull out your chain bags from the back of your closet if you stored them, and rock them on a daily basis. If you don’t own a chain bag, here are a few in various price ranges which are both classic and fabulous. Love!
Hobo Bags: The hobo bag is still going strong. You can wear soft hobos, structured hobos, large hobos, small, hobos, and everything in between. It’s all about the hobo!
The Anonymous Handbag: Keep on storing your logos, they will return eventually. In the meantime, this is the moment for timeless beauty made from high quality materials, expert craftsmanship, and chic style. People who don’t know, will need to ask. Those who know, will know!
Happy Colors: If you are bored of neutrals and black, this is the season to have a little fun with color. Look for happy colors such as green, yellow, blue and pink. A classic style, with anonymous branding and a fun color will be the perfect pairing to your spring ensembles. I’m a yellow handbag fan myself. Love!
Small totes: The small tote continues to be a favorite handbag style on the streets. It is small in stature yet offers a roomy interior for its size. Plus, small totes are easy to get in and out of while going through a busy day. I recommend one with a zipper for safety on public transportation and in busy areas. My go-to is pictured above. Love it!
Satchels: This classic handbag style is hot in every imaginable version. You can go structured and doctor-bag-like, or soft and slouchy. Also, this includes top handle bags you cannot define, as well as Lady Bags. A satchel with a shoulder strap is the ideal workhorse. As always, I am huge fan of the Givenchy Antigona, but there will be more affordable styles hitting store shelves soon. So, stay tuned if you don’t already have the perfect one!
Here are a few of my favorite, on trend handbags for spring 2024 which also happen to be classic styles you can wear well past spring and 2024.
What is your favorite spring 2024 handbag trend? Stay tuned for more spring coverage, I am just getting started!
How cute are these ballet flats! I didn’t think I would ever be able to wear flats again once I started having chronic plantar fasciitis pain, but I was wrong. These ballet flats have a removable orthotic inside which is just as supportive as the ones I purchased through my doctor. It’s amazing, I can wear ballet flats again!
If you have any foot issues, or you do a lot of walking and/or standing, you might be interested in these flats. They are so supportive, and I can wear them pain-free throughout the day without switching into sneakers. Love that! I definitely will be investing in more shoes from Vionic, and a review of the brand in general will hit the blog later this month-so stay tuned!
In addition to ballet flats with support, this week on the blog the anonymous handbag continues to reign supreme as well as spring pieces and investment jewelry. Loving the classic look!
Throughout March, continue to invest in timeless pieces as needed, and you can instantly update your look with spring nail polish. Love!
Thanks for stopping by!
XOXO Cathy
