Summer 2023 handbag wish list from top left: turquoise mini bag (under $1000) / studded handbag / sparkling handbag (IT bag under $500) / top handle bucket (IT bag under $1000) / beige shoulder bag / tan shoulder bag (under $500) / grey tote bag / pale turquoise tote / black hobo bag /

Well, as you know, I love handbags! I have a huge handbag wish list, and for the summer 2023 season, my list is long! Of course, I will not be able to indulge in all of these bags, but a girl can dream, right?

This summer 2023 season, I really want to add one, beautiful investment bag to my collection. A beige or tan bag would be ideal since my collection is mostly black bags. In addition, I don’t have a grey bag! I have always wanted to invest in a grey handbag, but some other color always catches my eye (cough cough, black). So, I need to really focus and invest in a grey bag! I love this beautiful and classic tote bag in grey. It is a style which transcends trends and can be worn in every season. I have had my eye on it for quite some time, so snapping one up in grey would be a wise investment.

I also love fun colors in the summer months! How cute is this little mini bag in bright turquoise?! I love the pop of color for summer.

Studded bags are always a favorite of mine. I had a medium brown Prada bag twenty years ago with beautiful studs on it, and when I stopped wearing it on a regular basis, I sold it. It is the one bag I regret selling. I will never sell a studded bag again! This beautiful, slouchy ivory bag with studs is high on my summer investment list. Isn’t it fabulous? The studs are edgy, yet the ivory hue and slouchy silhouette give it a relaxed and feminine vibe. I am in love!

Spring 2023 wish list from top left: stripe top / neutral tote bag / silver necklace / green sweater jacket / lavender earrings / top handle bag / Mary Jane shoes / straw tote / black loafers /

Spring starts next week! How is that possible? I am a little slow this year in getting my spring capsule wardrobe on the blog. The weather has been so cold and stormy, spring has not been on my radar. My capsule should definitely hit the blog next week! In the meantime, I still have a spring wish list!

This spring season, I am not sure how often we will have warm weather. Therefore, I am pairing down what I buy for the spring as it appears I will still need to integrate some winter clothing into my daily outfits. It is cold, and the ocean is falling from the sky! Despite the fact that it is March, our weather is acting like it is still January. What type of Twilight Zone is this?? But I digress. . . let’s talk about spring shopping! It is way more fun. haha

For the upcoming spring season, I would love to get a new pair of Mary Jane shoes, since the style is hotter than hot. In addition to this hot shoe style, ballet flats are back with a vengeance, and I have a pair buried in my closet. Those will definitely be brought back out this spring season! Loafers are also a must have this spring as they are the perfect match to balance the ongoing menswear trend we are seeing in fashion. Keep wearing your blazers with jeans, and rock those power suits at work. Love!

Straw totes are always a favorite of mine, and since I have the perfect small tote, I would love to add a larger tote to my collection. I have my eye on this beautiful straw tote. The straps and ombre weave are beautiful. I. Must. Have.

As you know, green is one of the hot colors this spring season, and this cute, yet structured sweater jacket, seems perfect for brightening up the day, looking springy, and offering some warmth. Love that!

Would it be spring without nautical stripes? Of course not! I love this long sleeve, nautical tee. I have decided I need it in my life.

Have you seen Tory Burch’s new tote collection? They are simple, chic, and available in tons of colors and sizes. I am drawn to this neutral hue. What do you think?

Lastly, how cute is this shamrock necklace? I would love to layer it with my little star necklace. So cute!!

Handbag wish list spring 2022

Spring 2022 handbag wish list from top left: straw top handle bag (perfect for late spring and the summer season) / chic white top handle bag / fun soft yellow shoulder bag / practical green tote for work / chic white shoulder bag / trendy black bulb bag for everyday wear /

So many bags, so little time! As you know, I am a huge handbag fan. There are so many fabulous handbags on the market every season, unfortunately I cannot possibly purchase all of them! Aside from the cost, there simply are not enough days, or outfits, to wear them all! Therefore, I have put together my seasonal wish list filled with the top six handbags I want the most. I usually figure out what I really need each season, and snap up one or two. Right now, these are the bags I feel will serve me well during the spring and summer seasons. I hesitate to call this my spring/summer wish list, since the summer season presents new needs; such as tote bags for travel and the beach!

One thing that is huge on my wish list right now is a white bag. While I have a medium size lady bag in white by Gucci, I would like a smaller bag that isn’t fussy. In addition, my ivory Chanel 2.55 is fussy because it’s lambskin and I need to be extra careful while wearing it. The white bags on my wish list have sturdier leather which and be cleaned and also be worn stress-free. Love that-need that!

Hobo bags are huge right now, and I am all set with one structured hobo and one soft hobo. That being said, the bulb version of this style is a cross between a bucket bag and a hobo bag, and I feel like I need one in my life! This classic black version would be perfect as a go-to, everyday bag. It is roomy and easy to wear over the shoulder. I would love to have one in my closet!

I am due for a new work bag! This green tote is a beautiful shade of green, and the square tote is on trend for 2022. I love everything about this tote. It is very high up on my wish list due to practicality and sheer beauty. Love!

Who doesn’t want a fun bag for warm weather? This straw top handle bag, or this bright yellow shoulder bag, would be perfect for the spring and summer seasons as my fun bag. Which shall I choose? What do you think? Do you have a favorite?
