I'm a Fashion Editor—I Whispered "Yes" to Myself When I Saw These Shoes and Bags

I love bags and shoes. Period. You too? I’m glad we’re on the same page. This one is for you. As a fashion editor who focuses on shopping content specifically, I spend a hefty chunky of my week scrolling through pages of merchandise from a range of retailers to uncover special gems to recommend in my stories. When something really catches my eye, I’ll often whisper a faint "yes” to myself. When this happens, it’s a good one in my book.
Below, you’ll uncover an edit of the gorgeous shoes and bags that have my stamp of approval right now. On the bag front, you’ll notice a smattering of investment-worthy silhouettes (like my favorite Gucci silhouette). Interested in adding a new pair of shoes to your wardrobe? There are stunning flats, loafers, and heels ahead. Keep scrolling for all of that and much more.
Next, check out the best shoes to buy at Nordstrom.
