Salvatore Ferragamo stays fashion forward with this elegant top handle satchel.

It makes sense for Salvatore Ferragamo to create a purse like this. Similar top handled satchels are enjoying a fashion renaissance, and the high end label is always on trend. The classic flap-over ...

Michael Kors is one of those American designers that I often forget about. His flagship line is pretty underwhelming, as far as I'm concerned. His diffusion line, however, is kind of perfect. It's trendy, but a little subdued, and totally affordable. This  School satchel is ...

If a retro shoulder bag hooked up with a piece of carry-on luggage they might give birth to something like Hayden-Harnett's Nackie Satchel.

This handbag has a very unusual look. It seems almost as if two bags have simply been sewn together. That quirkiness will never appeal to ...

In recent years we've seen Harveys evolving from a basic accessories label to one that's a bit more fashion forward. It still plays with seatbelts, but with the Studly it's also added a dose of heavy metal.

While the Studly shows a label attempting to modernize its image, ...

Guess puts its best foot forward with the Alfie Dome Satchel.

I haven't warmed to the label's showier styles, but it gets things right here by looking to classic fashion elements. The Alfie's domed shape has a playful retro feel, while the burnished hardware brings the ...

Fine Italian craftsmanship and classic style combine on this elegant Berry Red Woven Handle Satchel from Fontanelli.

Etienne Aigner gets colorblocking right with its Melinda Satchel.

The trend has prevailed for several seasons, but I'm still wondering when the tide will turn. When it does a subtly colorblocked bag like the Melinda will endure, while ones with wilder color palettes will date quickly.

None ...

The Wild West meets the African plains with this daring Wild Side Satchel from American West.

The competing influences make a strange blend on this satchel, and one which I personally find obnoxious. There's nothing subtle about the leopard print gracing the haircalf body, ...

Carry everything you need and then some in this classic Bedford Bowling Satchel from Michael Kors.

I'm sure you could carry your bowling ball and those quirky shoes and have to spare, but I couldn't bear to put sporting goods inside such a quality ...

BCBG Max Azria reinvents the quilted satchel with the Hanna.

The angular stitching on the Hanna looks much fresher than the diamond quilting other designers favor. Panels of tightly quilted leather decorate the front and back of the domed satchel, creating a contemporary finish ...

I'd all but given up on Gwen Stefani's L.A.M.B. line, with its signature patterns adorning a seemingly endless stream of lackluster handbags. But then I saw the Miles Satchel, a design so striking that I'm sure there's life in this celebrity designed line yet.

Of course any bag ...

With its unusually textured yellow leather, there's no ignoring the Emeraude Plage Satchel from Joy Gryson's Olivia Harris line.

The military look might have fallen out of favor in recent seasons, but Brynn Capella looks to bring the style back with the Zee satchel.

While its aesthetic isn't on trend, the Zee doesn't really look dated, perhaps because Brynn Capella hasn't gone overboard. Its chevron ...

I generally believe grown women should steer clear of handbags that pay homage to cartoon characters. However this Hello Kitty satchel from Loungefly has encouraged me to change my tune.

I still believe my rule holds true the majority of the time, but this satchel is ...

I've always considered Jessica Simpson a fashion follower rather than a design innovator. Her handbags are nice enough, but they generally seem like affordable alternatives for recessionistas rather than serious fashion contenders. However the pop star's Fontana Satchel has forced me to change my tune.

It's ...

Alexander Wang marries style and substance with this Rocco satchel.

It's unusual to find a bag whose image comes from a feature so functional. The etched studs which cover the base are really striking, but they also work for us. The bone colored leather base would ...

There's nothing wrong with taking a traditional path. White leather always makes an impression, at least when it's brand new and free from stains, and a simple shape maximizes storage space. It's just that there's not too ...

Tignanello takes us back to the 70s with this Color Me Classy satchel.

I'm not sure it's quite as classy as its name suggests, but the combination of tan and chocolate brown has a charming sense of nostalgia. It's very 70s, but with that ...

Sonia Rykiel keeps the studded trend alive with this Domino satchel.

She doesn't do things by halves here. This simply shaped satchel is covered in hundreds of large and small brass studs. I really like the way the accents pop against the tan lambskin, but I'm ...



In the tradition of its Alexa Bag comes Mulberry's Travel Bag range, the latest addition to its accessories line.

Some media outlets have dubbed the newest design the Alexa's "love child," and it's not hard to see why. Its satchel shape, braided leather handle, ...

Rampage gives the classic boxy-shaped satchel a modern makeover with the Caden.

At its core this is a very traditional satchel, but its tough attitude makes it much more contemporary. I'm not usually a fan of metallic hues on large handbags, but the weathered finish on the gunmetal ...

Puma shows us good things can come in small packages with the Avenue.

What I like most about the Avenue is that it doesn't really look like a gym bag. Its fabric body isn't very sophisticated, but the petite dimensions help it seem a bit more ...

Marni encourages us to hang on to winter a little longer with this Knitted Cotton Bag.

I've never been a great fan of knitted bags, and this one does little to change my mine. There's something awkward about it, like it was once a sweater that's been squeezed ...

The Getaway takes us back to the 50s with its clean lines and structured shape. The sparkly ...

Longchamp blows its own trumpet with this Legende Sports Satchel. I'm not sure its destined to be the legend that Longchamp hopes, but it's quite a stylish satchel.

Don't let the sports part of its moniker confuse you; this isn't the sort of satchel you want ...

Middleton was the name on everyone's lips last year, whether you were admiring the poise of older sister Kate or the curves of young Pippa. So it's quite canny for London Fog to use the famous surname for this satchel.

While its name will encourage eyeballs ...

Gwen Stefani’s taken an uncharacteristically conservative approach to fashion with this Marlene satchel.

Ordinarily L.A.M.B.'s accessories feature loud Rasta inspired color schemes, neon colors, or checkerboards, but there's none of that flamboyance here. Instead the soft tumbled leather finish is classically rendered with diamond quilting. The black color ...

Kathy Van Zeeland's gotten in touch with her feminine side to create this Pretty Young Thing Satchel.

I was surprised to see KVZ's name attached to this conservative satchel. Its hardware is remarkably reserved, and its flap-over shape an elegant ...

Ghibli gives the classic black and white color combination some retro flair with this Flap Satchel Bag.

I really like the playful way Ghbili has interpreted this traditional handbag style. Black hues are wardrobe staples, but Ghibli's added more interest by using matte leather and nubbly soft suede. ...

Just like the Amazon goddesses that inspired it, this Fural Amazzone satchel knows how to make a big impression.

It had me at that lush metallic color. I rarely warm to metallic leathers, but this one is just subtle enough to win me over. Called Argento, it's a ...

Frye takes a traditional approach to design with the Kira Karry Satchel.

Its alliterative name might remind you of the Kardashians, but this satchel is much more sophisticated than the socialite sisters, or any accessory they've lent their name to. While the Kardashians play with synthetic ...

Emilie Sloan serves up another cute and practical accessory with this Sonja satchel.

I'm smitten by this satchel's domed shape, and the pop of the patent leatherette lime trim. The shiny green piping and handles look gorgeous against the delicate Asian inspired floral fabric.

The midsized interior ...

Shocking pink leather helps this Mallory Satchel from Elaine Turner stand out in a crowd.

That bright raspberry hue is probably what will make you love or loathe the Mallory. It's so distinctive that it's impossible to sit on the fence about it. I love the ...

Cole Haan serves up traditional design with a touch of the exotic in this Hayden Charlott Satchel.

This satchel has the structured design and clean lines of the most sophisticated handbags, but its exotic finish is what really makes it special. A large lizard ...

Needless to say, I'm enamored with this chic satchel. I love ...

I must admit, I've never taken a lot of notice of Carla Mancini. Her accessories typically tend to blend into the background. However with this Jackie satchel she has me swooning.

There's a lot going on here, but Mancini handles it so well that it doesn't ...

Calvin Klein's created a classic satchel for the pack rats with the St. Moritz.

The satchel takes its name from a Swiss ski resort, but it seems more like a metropolitan miss than a snow bunny. There's no fur or knit, none of the ...

Bulga serves up classic good looks with a modern twist with the Bunt Satchel.

It seems strange to ever call an orange handbag with such unusual details classic, but somehow despite the quirks Bulga makes sure this satchel is reserved. The color is unexpected, and so is the ...
