Is your fall calendar quickly filling up? Whether your activities are academic, professional, or social, you know that the right outfit can make all the difference.

Yet, every fashionista knows that it's the bag that makes the look. From super-sized satchels to dainty clutches, there are many different kinds to shop and adore. Throughout history, they've played an important role in helping us feel more posh and polished.

Feeling a little overwhelmed? We're here to help. Today, we're sharing a quick guide to help you choose the perfect bag, no matter the occasion!

Luxury On the Go: Belt Bags We Love

Gone are the days when around-the-waist belt bags were only associated with theme park visits. Today's models are sleeker and more high-fashion than ever before. They're the perfect accessory to grab when you're heading out for a day in town. 

If you're new to this look, check out our Green RENSA Leather Waist Belt Bag. Available in green, cream, or black with a vegan leather upper, it's as practical as it is beautiful.

Most belt bags are adjustable and built to accommodate any size. In addition to cinching yours around your waist, try wearing it across your body for an unexpected, hands-free style. It will also fit easily inside of a larger bag to help you make the transition from one event to the next!

The Office-to-Drinks Bucket Bag

Few bags are as versatile and flexible as the do-all bucket bag. Designed to be extra spacious, it has plenty of room to store all of your favorite necessities. 

Looking for a laptop bag that isn't too stiff or plain-looking? We suggest taking our Apricot DEXIA Buckled Leather Bucket Bag to work with you. Featuring a leather upper, one top handle, and a gold bucket detail, it's ideal for storing your office essentials. 

The best part? Once you've clocked out for the day, a bucket bag also makes the perfect accompaniment for a night on the town! Stylish and eye-catching without being too bulky, it looks just as gorgeous over cocktails as it does in the cubicle. 

Everyday Essentials: Casual Cross-Body Bags

If you can only invest in one bag, then it should be one that can take you anywhere you want to go. A cross-body bag fits the bill, keeping your hands free and your outfit well-embellished.

Take our Pink RILEA Metal Lock Leather Cross Body Bag, for instance. Not only is the light blush color the ultimate neutral, but the gold metal lock and sturdy shoulder strap offer function and beauty, all in one.

Roomy enough to hold the basics but not too big that it will weigh you down, cross-body bags are destined to become new staples in your closet. The RILEA is also available in other hues including carmel, yellow, and white, so you're sure to find the right one for you.

Night Out Glamour: Top Handle Purses

Sometimes, you just want to have a little fun with your bag! The next time you're getting dressed for a fun night out, why not reach for a piece that's a little bolder?

Top handle purses are a great way to express your personality, especially when they're decked out in colorful faux fur, like our Pink CALNA B Embellished Fur Tote Bag! This particular style is also available as a mini cross-body bag with a metal chain strap, for those days when you want everyone to notice your look. 

Like faux fur, glitter can also make anything a little more chic. If you want something a little more subtle, check out our Pink PIKIA Diamante Glitter Tote Bag. You can also find this style in blue, silver, and gold!

Elegant Evenings: Clutches to Keep

Are you planning to attend a wedding this autumn? What about a formal work event, or a special date night?

When you're all dressed up, you need a bag that doesn't compete with your outfit but complements it instead. You also want to make sure it's the right size to help you keep up with all of your must-have essentials. From your smartphone to your lipstick, there are a few favorites you'll need to keep within easy reach.

While there are many different bag styles that would work for these occasions, few can match the classic elegance of a leather clutch. Our Black KLISH Gold Chain Leather Pouch is a stunning example. Made of strong vegan leather, it features a gold chain strap that you can wear over your shoulder, or tuck in for a simpler look.

Looking for a little more bling? We also love this Silver VONNE Braided Metallic Metal Bag. You'll turn every head in the room with this bold, reflective beauty!

Classic Carry-Ons: Oversized Bags for Travel

It's no secret that luggage collections are more stylish and on-trend than ever before. This is especially the case with carry-on tote bags. For years, these were made of restrictive canvas that didn't match anything and looked dingy after just one use.

Now, the tides are turning. Today's totes are made of high-end materials like supple vegan leather, and feature thoughtful details like built-in snap closures and durable double handles. Our Dark Coffee RALEN Leather Tote Bag is a brilliant example. 

The deep brown tone goes with anything, though we wouldn't blame you for choosing a few different bag colors to round out your wardrobe. This same tote is also available in tapioca, cream, and black.
