Just because a piece may be considered trendy, doesn’t mean it won’t become an invaluable investment for your wardrobe. Three popular fall bag trends (including tote bags, portfolio clutches, and top handle satchels) are classic and sophisticated styles that will look chic both today and well in the future. The key to finding a bag that will last for years is to look for quality construction, simple detailing, and a streamline design.
Tote Bags provide ample space to toss all your daily necessities into, from laptops to a change of shoes. Instead of opting for soft cloth or straw tote bags (which are more appropriate for going to the beach or pool), choose a structured leather version. This provides more versatility, thereby enabling you to wear it to the office or for casual outings.

Portfolio clutches up the ante on traditional work-wear by adding bold detailing (such as dramatic studs or playful color blocking), while still looking professional. You’ll never get a “Case of the Mondays” with these bags, since you’ll be excited to get the week started in style.
Featured Portfolio Clutches (Middle Row – Left to Right):
- ASOS Slot Through Portfolio Clutch Bag
- 3.1 Phillip Lim Portfolio Oversized Leather Clutch
- Christian Louboutin Romeo spiked leather portfolio clutch
From Nob Hill to Park Avenue, every elegant and refined lady owns a top handle satchel, knowing that it’s a bag that will never go out of style. Whether you prefer traditional designs with minimal detailing (such as this Michael Kors bag), or enjoy more glamorous and dramatic looks (like this Dolce & Gabbana stunner), there’s a top handle bag out there for you.
