5 Top Handbag Trends for fall/winter 2017/2018

I love handbags, designer handbags to be more specific. I’m not sure where my love for handbags came from, but I know more than a few women who share in my obsession. What I don’t love however, is the steep price tags associated with these bags. While looking at the new handbag trends online, I did a little research and found amazing discounts of 50% off (or more) on some of the top designer handbags for this upcoming season.

The fall/ winter 2017-2018 handbag trends on the runway this year are sure to influence what bags we all will be wanting in the coming months ahead.  There were a lot of plain leather bags in a variety of shapes and sizes, but there were also some extreme elements that I’m not sure will catch on. Below, see five of the top handbag trends for fall/winter 2017-2018. Also, I will show you where you can get some of these trends at a huge discount.

#1  MINI BAGS

So many of the collections this year had mini-purses. Some were paired with larger bags, but most just chilled on their own, just the right size for a smaller phone, a lipstick, and maybe a few dollar bills. Tiny bags for fall/winter 2017-2018 come in all kinds of shapes, colors, and styles. Here are some of my favorites.

#2  CIRCULAR PURSES

The pros of a circular purse: it’ll always stand out, it softens an outfit, and it is beautiful enough to fit any occasion. Cons: it might fall over if you try to put it on a table. The circular bags for this fall/ winter 2017-2018 are chic, gorgeous, and surprisingly very practical.

#3 BAGS WITH TASSELS

Tassels always add a little bohemian touch to an item, sometimes in a way that adds contrast, and other times as a natural extension of an already somewhat hippie design. Like the previous season, tassels will be a big part of the upcoming bag trends. I really like the first bag below which is available in 3 different colors.

#4 BAGS WITH CHAIN STRAPS

Chain straps were popular on the runway this year. Unique chain handles with a Victorian vibe and bags made of different shades of leather and crocodile skin. There are so many varieties to choose from  I love the styles with the strap made of a thicker chain and brassy metal.

#5 CLUTCHES

A clutch is a symbol of sophistication, and a testament that one is willing to sacrifice convenience for class. Almost every runway this season featured a clutch or two. Every girl needs at least one clutch in her handbag collection.

These are just a small sampling of the 2017/2018 handbag styles and trends expected to be popular this fall and winter.  I’m always on the hunt for a bargain and love finding things I love – at a discount. I hope my ideas save you some money and help you in your search for the perfect handbag.
