Statement sparkly bags

Give the disco ball a run for its money: make an entrance with a statement sparkly bag. Not just perfect for parties, but sparkly handbag will dress up your daytime looks, too. Think jeans and an oversized shirt or a bright color coat... Love your daintier accessories? A mini sequin grab bag adds a twinkly touch to your Christmas party outfit without feeling too bulky.

Diminutive yet dazzling, this showstopper is covered in shimmery sequins from handle to base. Want to go hands-free to throw those secretly-rehearsed shapes with style? A shoulder bag is just the thing. Time to hit the dance floor...

Cute and mini grab bags

Consider a seasonal swap. For winter, a fabulously fluffy, faux fur grab bag is plush perfection. And a crochet grab bag will be your festival fave for summer. With their petite proportions, they're great for stashing your party makeup and phone (without distracting from your look). Wear with a mesh mini and a double-breasted suit jacket to be the ultimate style trail(blazer).

Evening and party clutches

Smaller but no less statement: every partywear collection needs an elegant evening clutch. With a neatly structured, boxy shape, a party clutch will upgrade that little black dress you’ve been longing to debut. For a look worthy of winning best dressed: pair your party clutch with black ankle boots and glittery party jewelry .

Quilted classics

Nothing screams classic sophistication more than quilting. For fashionistas who like a little more room, we recommend a quilted tote. Heading straight from the office to a party? These bigger structured bags are your handy travel companion, taking you seamlessly from your commute (in you go, laptop) to the venue.

A late 90s trend we’re loving: a quilted bowling bag is practical and pretty. The flat bottom and cylindrical shape are cool and compact but big enough for an extra top and your beauty bag. Wear with low-rise jeans for women and a tank top for some serious Y2K vibes.

Parties set somewhere bustling or on the go? A quilted crossbody provides peace of mind that your precious belongings won’t be left in a busy restaurant or a bus (phew). Whether it has an adjustable strap or a statement chain, a crossbody is a smart way to add detail to a solid color dress or women's sweater.

Structured shoulder bags

Whether big or small, sparkly or simple, we love how a structured shoulder bag makes an outfit look more put-together. Need organization on the go? These babies boast a structured packing space to stash spare layers and keep your essentials handy.  

With its adjustable shoulder strap, our structured tote is easy to style from your morning commute to a festive brunch. Use it to stash your outfit change: just take off the shoulder strap for a tote-ally party ready transformation.

Minimalist sling bags

Cute, compact and endlessly versatile, sling bags are having a moment. We have them in lots of colors to blend fashion with function. Consider them your new bag besties...

These sling styles stash all your essentials, like beauty buys for on-the-go touch ups. Use the pockets for easy-to-lose items – no more digging for keys on your doorstep. 

Classic black going-out bags

Not sure what colors to wear for your special event? Embrace some black magic with a black evening bag. It's a perfect pick with almost anything, like a showstopping midi party dress and strappy heels (we love their classic vibe). Rocking a metallic look? A black bag with gold or silver tone accents gives you effortless coordination.

Need to keep your hands free? Go for a black shoulder bag to carry all your evening essentials. Lots of our bags have spacious central pouches to safely store your keys, hairbrush and umbrella (no one needs rained-on hair when they get there...).
