Summer is just around the corner. Once we've put away the chunky knit sweaters, last boots, and booties, it's time to break out the slip dresses, barely-there tops, and sandals. And there's no better finishing touch to your warm-weather wardrobe than a statement handbag. There are so many unique shapes, bright colors and fresh materials on trend for summer 2023. Here are seven of the chicest bag shapes you can carry around all summer.
Classic crossbody
Crossbody bags will dominate the warm season. Why? They go well with almost any summer wardrobe, they are easy to throw over your shoulder and free up your hands for summer walks. Whether you're still hanging on to your micro bag or are looking for something larger to hold all your essentials (and more), a crossbody will make your summer life a lot easier.
Work bag
Wherever you work - in the office or in your favorite cafe, you need a durable and stylish bag in which you can store your laptop, notepad and other things necessary for work.While a work bag may bring back memories of basic neutrals, now is the time to bring life back to the office (wherever that may be) with new textures and silhouettes. Look for options with plenty of pockets so you have plenty of room for small essentials like pens, lip gloss and your phone.
Baguette bag
Baguette bags have been making a comeback for a while now, but next summer they'll be everywhere. Brands are already releasing baguette bags in fresh and fun colors, so you won't have a hard time finding one to go with your favorite summer outfit.
Blast from the past
From Gucci's Jackie 1961 bag to Coach's shoulder bags, vintage handbag styles are making a comeback and looking better than ever. If you really love classic style, try finding a used piece of jewelry in your closet.
Bucket bag
Bucket bags are practical, fashionable and deceptively spacious. The cylindrical shape hides deep interior space, and the high, durable sides keep things secure. We love classics like the Mansur Gavriel, but the trendy mini bag is perfect for a night out.
Option with glitter
Jewelry is all the rage right now, and a sequined handbag is the easiest way to embrace the trend. Multi-colored mesh and rhinestone-embellished crossbody bags are an easy way to add a little Y2K love to your wardrobe.
Extended bag
Making its debut on the spring/summer 2023 runways, the longline bag is equal parts chic and functional. It has a flat base that keeps it upright when you place it on a flat surface, so you don't have to worry about it falling over and spilling its contents.Essentially, it's the effortlessly glamorous accessory your summer wardrobe is missing.
Dazzling bright colors
Bright colors for summer? Not exactly revolutionary, but still nice. This season, the brighter the better. No matter what style of handbag suits you best, try pausing on neutrals and playing with hot pink, neon green or orange.
Full circle
Coperni's Swipe glass bag has taken the internet by storm. If you're too nervous to carry a glass bag (which is fair), there are still plenty of ways to incorporate round shapes into your wardrobe.
