Bags can easily turn an around a simple outfit. They are investment pieces to us, pieces we got ourselves for a special occasion. And they’re having a moment. After Mini Kellys, pastell Chanels, and charmed Birkins have flooded the fashion world, a few new and strong pieces from other brands have become just as popular. And because there is always a bag of the season and a bag that we’re saving up for, a little light on current highlight bags is in order.

For the past seasons, bags have been the center of attention and just as much the center of fashion conversations. Big fashion houses have raised their prices and this opened the market for high quality mid range bags. And when it comes to trends, the fashion world is just as torn. Classic pieces are on trend like never before, giving the Chanel Flap bag, or Hermes’ Kelly or Birkin their (well-deserved) moment. At the same time, brands produce new and unique models, like The Row’s Margeau, Khaite’s Olivia series, or Bottega Veneta’s Andiamo. So let’s enjoy all the current options and style them.

Classic Highlight bags

Speaking of … Bottega Veneta and The Row have managed to introduce their timeless Modells and they’ve gained and gained in popularity. For a classic style wear them with a button down from The Frankie Shop, jeans by Anine Bing, and ballet flats from Alaïa. A simple look, that always works.
