Hobo Bags Are Making Slouch a Point of View
The hobo bag's relaxed shape is back in focus, balancing everyday capacity with the kind of softness that makes polished dressing less rigid.
Travel Totes Built for Long Days
A good travel tote carries everything for the flight and still looks smart at the other end. These picks cover structured leather styles, canvas and nylon totes, soft suede bags and a few weekend bags. Look for one with a zip or a closure if you plan to keep it under the seat.
The Leather Tote Still Has Work to Do

The BDG Cindy Shoulder Bag
The shoulder bag has quietly won back the territory the crossbody took in the 2010s. The BDG Cindy shoulder bag is the version that got there first at a level people would actually experiment with, which is why it spread. This edit lines up the colourways next to the rest of the label's shoulder bags.
Olive Green for Fall
Olive knits, army green jackets and trousers, and olive shoes and bags for a softer alternative to black and brown this fall.
STAUD's New Arrivals That Make It the Perfect Brand for Fall
STAUD is the perfect brand for fall. Our edit of the label's newest arrivals from Shopbop, from dresses and boots to cashmere sweaters, bags and tops.
The Tote That Works All Fall
An autumn tote only works when it fits the coat you actually reach for, which makes proportion and strap placement more important than a novelty detail. The shift toward roomier, softer carryalls follows the same move toward heavier fall layers. This edit sorts the totes, coats, and boots that are meant to be worn together.
Brown Is Doing All The Work
Brown spent decades as the colour nobody chose, filed somewhere between safe and dowdy. It has become the season's organising principle, absorbing everything black used to do while reading warmer and less severe. This edit follows what happens when an entire wardrobe commits to one temperature.
Suede Bags
Soft napped leather, slouchy shapes
The Case for Buying One Good Bag a Year
Buying one considered bag a year beats replacing one every time a feed trend shifts. The habit works because a bag earns its keep through repetition, the same handle showing up on errands, at work, and on weekends until it becomes part of how you dress. This edit gathers everyday totes, evening clutches, and a few distinctive designer shapes so the choice can be about which job your current lineup still fails to do.
Minimalism Grew A Personality
Minimalism spent the last decade meaning restraint to the point of blankness, all beige and no opinion. What replaced it keeps the discipline and adds material interest, which is a much harder thing to execute. This edit tracks the version of plain dressing that actually has a point of view.
Top-Handle Bags
Carried in the hand, on purpose
Fall, Narrowed To Five Houses
Fall shopping has split into two behaviours: graze everywhere, or commit to a handful of houses and buy the whole point of view. This edit is the second one, built almost entirely from five labels working the same dark, tailored register. The narrowness is the argument.
French Autumn, Rohmer Style
Camel knits, pleated skirts and a good loafer: the French autumn wardrobe, the way Éric Rohmer's films dress it. Here is how I would put it together for October, without a beret in sight.
Handbags 2026: The Shapes Worth Committing To
After several years of tiny novelty bags, the pendulum has swung back toward things that hold a phone and a book. Handbags 2026 is shaping up as a season of structure, soft shoulder shapes and hardware you can actually see. These eight are the shapes doing the heavy lifting.
Dressing For The Dark
Maximalism came back not through colour but through surface, which is why this season reads rich rather than loud. Faux fur, sequin, feather and crystal have replaced the stripped-back minimalism that governed the last few winters. This edit is about texture doing the work that print used to.
Everything Rides On The Outer Layer
For most of the year the outer layer was an afterthought, something thrown over an outfit that had already been decided. That has inverted: the top layer is now the piece the rest of the look is built around. This edit follows what happens to a wardrobe when you plan it from the outside in.
The School Tote Bag Grew Up And Got A Job
The school tote bag used to mean canvas and a slogan, and it now means a canvas bag from a house that also sells leather. Coach, Marc Jacobs, Tory Burch and Michael Kors are all making one. That shift is worth paying attention to.

Everyday Bags and Small Accessories
The short answer on everyday bags and small accessories: pick one anchor piece, keep the palette to two colours, and let the shoes decide how formal the whole thing reads. One piece should lead and the rest should stay quiet; two competing pieces read as an accident.

Birkin 40 Price: The Real Cost
What Birkin 40 Price actually costs is a range rather than a number, and the gap between the low and high end here is mostly materials and finishing. Small production runs cost more per unit, which is why a lesser-known label can be dearer than a famous one.
Lulu Keychain Wallet, Worth the Money?
The short answer on Lulu Keychain Wallet is below, and the honest version is that it depends on two or three things rather than one. Small production runs cost more per unit, which is why a lesser-known label can be dearer than a famous one.
