The best and biggest bag trends to shop in 2024

Spring has sprung! Whether you’re out enjoying the sun or dealing with April showers, it’s time for a wardrobe refresh, especially for all you bag girls out there. 

If you want to add some new items to your bag collection, here are this season’s hottest it-bags.

Red was undoubtedly the breakout shade of 2023, and it’s not going anywhere in 2024. A bright red handbag is the perfect way to add a pop of colour to an otherwise muted outfit, and there are plenty of mid-range and designer options in all the shades of red your heart desires.

Also known as the fashion person’s backpack, bucket bags are the unsung heroes of the bag world. This year fuss-free, classic designs are all the rage: circular bottoms and deep barrels for the perfect cylinder shape, and tonal, versatile shades. This spring there’s no need to reinvent the wheel.

In a world of quiet luxury, dare to be loud. Bejewelled bags, especially bags adorned with chain handles, are one of the trending bag styles of 2024. The chains, meant to resemble necklaces, will make your bag look oh-so-precious.

With their classic, timeless appeal, top-handle bags rarely (if ever) go out of style, and this year we’re mixing them with 90s minimalism. A demure top-handle bag is a piece you’ll find yourself reaching for for decades to come.

Leopard print is back, and not only when talking about clothing. When it comes to trending bags in 2024, mock-croc, cowhide, snake, leopard, and everything in between are fair game. If you’re not a huge fan of red, animal print is another great way to add depth and interest to your neutral-hued looks.

When it comes to tote bags, the secret to effortless elegance is in soft materials and shapeless styles. This is great news for all the overpackers out there: your overflowing, oversized, “bare minimum” survival kit will fit comfortably in one of these slouchy totes.
