e may not be pulling coats out
of storage come Labor Day, but
we sure will tote the newest handbags of
the season. Splurge on a statement bag
or touch on fall runway trends for a
guaranteed update to your look this
September. The autumn palette fea-
tures rich traditional browns as well
as deep aubergines, burnt reds and
spicy pumpkin shades. Textural ani-
mal prints, luxe skins and plush velvet
mix with metallic shimmer and glossy
leather in all your favorite shapes and
sizes. Rounded sacks and curved satch-
els are the hot silhouettes and the clutch
is no longer meant just for evening. Give
fresh play to your faithful friend — the
handbag — a key accessory investment.
Making an investment in a fall fixture
like a great handbag can be money well
spent to achieve the look that will get
the looks (of appreciation and envy)
from all you survey. It can creates mo-
ments to remember and serve a purpose
as well.
