September feels like the right time to replenish your stationery drawer, sort through your bookcases and even start off afresh with a new bag.
Finding one that holds your daily necessities and works from day to night can be difficult. But this season’s trends are loud and functional at the same time.
Faux fur is to autumn what iced lattes are to summer: predictable, perhaps, but what we’re all looking forward to. For autumn 2018, a faux fur animal print bag is the perfect way to insert some character into your look. Double points if it comes in a colour mother nature didn’t produce.
How we hold our bags is also changing this season. Crossbodies don’t feel as modern as wearing a bum bag over the shoulder, nor do they look as cool as a classic 90s shoulder bag.
Detailing is key – this season will see many interesting chains and tortoiseshell links are also trending.
Inspired by the revival of the iconic Dior saddle bag, carrying a mock croc bucket bag will make any outfit look as fresh as a brisk autumnal walk.
Here are some of our top high street picks this season to get you on track.
