They can also accessorize your glam dresses like sequin dresses and metallic skirts for all the festive occasions later in the season. Something about adding studs brings an extraordinary touch that we all crave. Studded bags are indeed a promising way to rock your outfit on some of your dull times.
Fur bag
Not surprisingly, the new Fall / Winter 2022 collections include a portion of good old handbags made of faux fur. You can find exquisite, furry items in the collection of renowned fashion houses, such as Chloé and Saint Laurent. There are no definitive rules this season: you can choose a bag with a furry detail or all fur evening bag. Faux fur bag, a hand-held statement of unparalleled luxury, this Fall is either entirely topped with fur or features just a few plush fur details. Although it is a trend to die for, sit down and relax. If you want to show off your fashion-forward side remember, you can’t get a cheap fur bag without commiting a fashion disaster.
Backpack

From many different styles we saw on the runways, the ones worth your attention are: the most convenient clutch with a handheld strap, sexy boho-inspired clutch with a fringe detail, and monochrome croc-embossed clutch.

And yes, we’re happy with this laid-back style that can easily hold all of our daily essentials.
