With the arrival of warmer weather, I know many of you are looking to update your handbags, I know I am. I’ve stored away many of my winter bags now and taken a few lighter-weight old favorites out of their dust bags. Handbag shapes go in and out of style, the same way that jeans and shoes do, so an updated shape helps to make every outfit feel fresh and modern. Here are some of the best spring 2024 handbags I’m loving.
Woven handbags are always popular for spring and summer. This All Saints crossbody bag is a favorite I’ve carried for several years. It’s very lightweight, durable, and holds quite a lot. The strap is removable if you want to carry it as a clutch, and it has a magnetic closure on top. The straw coordinates with everything, and I love the black trim. Yesterday, I wore it to lunch with one of my favorite no-wrinkle shirts, my stretchy Eileen Fisher skirt, some sandals that are as old as the hills, and my liquid metal bracelet.
I adore my DeMellier Vancouver bag! The strap can easily be doubled to wear as a short-shoulder bag or lengthened to wear as a crossbody. Its structured shape holds quite a lot, and the clasp snaps closed securely. This bag comes in tons of colors here on their website and I opted for this taupe because it’s a seasonless color and looks great worn with white.
This straw crossbody bagcaught my eye because it’s the perfect size. It’s large enough to carry your wallet, cell phone, sunglasses, and other essentials and compact enough to look polished. I find shaped bags hold so much more than envelope types, and their design makes it easy to find what I need without digging through a non-structured bag.
Best Spring 2024 Handbags I’m Loving
Bembien Le Sac Bag
I’ve always been a big fan of the handwoven Bembian bags, which are handcrafted by artisans from around the world.This Le Sac bag is smaller than many of their large totes and comes in five colors. This one is the perfect size for all your daytime essentials and small enough to use for dinners out. I like the option of white woven leather which shows the weave nicely.
Tory Burch Robinson Chain Wallet Bag
The Robinson Chain Wallet Bag is the perfect size for ladies who prefer a compact bag! Its sleek design and handy size are perfect for shopping days, evenings out, or anytime you want a sleek bag in a timeless neutral. Tory Burch bags are made with top-notch materials, and their style is timeless.
Clare Vivier Petit Moyen
I’ve always been a fan of Clare Vivier’s bags. They’re crafted with attention to detail and high-quality materials in modern and unique shapes. This mini messenger bag exudes sophistication and adds a touch of effortless style in a small yet functional size. This weave looks like rattan, but it’s actually woven leather, which gives it a great spring look.
Clare Vivier Pot de Miel
I’ve had my eye on this Clare Vivier honeypot bag for several months. I think the shape is adorable, and the bamboo handle just adds to its charm. It also comes in vibrant green or beige with a tortoise chain handle. This type of bag can be carried as an evening bag or daytime. She also makes various shoulder straps you can add to carry your bag hands-free.
STAUD Moon Bag
I love the unique half-moon shape and sleek design of this Staud Moon bag. It has a sleek, modern feel, and the color is perfect all year round. I also found this bag in black or paper white raffia here.
Top Handle Wicker Bag
This top handle wicker bag is a nice polished blend of classic wicker with white leather and polished trim. This is sized more for a trim looking evening bag with a removable strap to make it a ladylike top handle.
Talbots Raffia Crossbody Bag
If you love adding pops of color into your wardrobe, this raffia crossbody from Talbots will do just that. The combination of the smooth leather, woven raffia, and shiny gold hardware makes this a lightweight bag you can carry for the day or evening. It also comes in indigo blue.
Naghedi Ecru St Barts Mini-Tote
These Naghedi woven neoprene bags and totes have been the rage for seasons. This mini tote is just the right size to carry your sunglasses, wallet, phone, mints, etc. It also comes with a shoulder strap. It comes in 4 colors and in other sizes here. I particularly like the shape of this crossbody in the same weave.
Talbots Canvas Crossbody
Sometimes, a tiny handbag just won’t do, and this canvas crossbody from Talbots has ample room to hold all of your extras, like a book or an e-reader! It also comes in a black leather version.
J. Crew Semicircle Rattan Clutch
Rattan is one of my favorite materials for unique-shaped spring/summer handbags. This semicircle clutch from J. Crew is an adorable shape and has a removable crossbody chain so you can carry it hands free.
