With the beginning of a new season, comes time to ditch the darker tones of winter in favor of brighter hues. And what better way to start than with your handbag?
Bags need to be just the right size. Too small — they can’t hold your essentials. Too big — you can never find what you need when you need it. I’ve always coveted medium-sized bags, and my Coach tote has been my go-to season after season. But after straining a shoulder while carrying the sucker around Manhattan on a few occasions last month, I thought there had to be a better way.
Enter the satchel. Call it a satchel or a crossbody, these babies may be a life-saver (or at least will save my shoulder!). The array of colors and styles available means they can accommodate everyone from minimalist to pack rat. I’ve rounded up a few of my favorites above, and I can hardly wait to welcome a satchel to my closet this spring.
Which satchel is on your spring wish list?
I love these bright colored bags! My problem is I can’t justify buying a bag unless it goes with every outfit so everything I have is boring and neutral.

I had that same problem a while back, Christina! It’s why I have tons of black bags now. Try a color blocked one. It will still go with lots of looks, and it will add a pop of color to your style!
I have nominated you for the ”The Liebster Award” because I love your blog!

Coveting that bright blue Zac Posen satchel. So vibrant and cheerful for spring!
Taffeta & Tulips
Isn’t that a nice bold color for spring, Kate? I love the style, too.
Spring is just about letting the dark go away !!
I really like the first bag, the color is so lovely and bag nr. 5.

Thanks, Meron! I’m eyeing that Mossimo bag, too. I love the color for spring…and the price!
Gorgeous picks! My favorite is the Topshop bag – I was certain it was a Proenza Schouler and was thrilled to see it was under $100!
Isn’t that Topshop bag perfection, Molly? I loved it when I spotted it, and I couldn’t believe the price. I think I will definitely be welcoming it to my closet this spring.
I love the bright spring purses!! I think the bright blue one is calling my name! 🙂

I know the feeling, Yuliya!
Such lovely colours! I do love bags and don’t really have any bags which are light in colour. If I were to opt for one it would be a blue design, one of my favourite shades.
Some great items here, nicely picked out. I would opt for the first one in each row, I like rounded styles of handbags which fit nicely on your shoulder.
Thanks for sharing!

Thanks, Annessa! Phillip Lim bags are my fave, too.
I love the gray and black Philip Lim! I think I might stick to the Topshop option though, it’s a little more budget friendly! Awesome roundup!
Thanks, Kasie! I love Phillip Lim’s bags, too. The Topshop one is perfect for spring — and you can’t beat the price!
Love your picks!
