A handbag is the perfect finishing touch to any look. There's just something immensely satisfying about that functional pop of a little something extra. I was gifted designer bags from my family for special occasions growing up, but recently, I've taken more of a personal interest in the high-end-handbag world. I decided to do a deep dive into designer brands and particular styles that have caught my eye over the years so I can start building a collection that I'm proud of.

Whether you're on a budget or want to invest in a higher-ticket style, I've got something for you. With the new season quickly approaching, it's definitely time for a spring accessory refresh.
