With labels like Chanel giving a major nod to the 90’s by way of poppy pink heart-shaped bags with pearl embellishments to brands like Chloe and Ulla Johnson who opted to remain true to their boho-chic heritage, it goes without saying that the handbag options for spring 2022 are endless. If you’re anything like us and like to keep a close watch on what bags you add and subtract to your wardrobe, thoughtfully making purchases, without buying for the sake of buying, then you probably don’t think this post is for you. But I beg to differ – despite the few funky or impractical bags we saw coming down the runways, there were surprisingly far more bag trends that spoke to the “everyday” aesthetic, like you and me. From oversized totes and bucket bags that can fit everything to hand-held pouches perfect for date night, you’d be surprised at how many bags were dare I say, wearable! Now that we’ve got your attention, here are the six handbag trends you’ll be seeing everywhere next spring season.
