This £25 Bag Is Fast Becoming Part of the It-Girl Uniform

Topshop's Instagram feed is currently an explosion of snake, neon and embellishment—it's one of the boldest accounts out there right now. There's one piece that's really standing out, however: a £29 faux-pearl tote bag with a large loop handle. Within days of it being posted online, influencers were snapping it up and posting it on their feeds at lightning speed, with our sources at Topshop confirming that it's been one of the most in-demand items of the party season.
The fact that it's still available online is surprising—pleasantly, of course. However, it's not the only arm candy that deserves a shout out. There are tonnes of new styles for the taking on the website: fluffy finishes, jumbo chain-link handles and diamantés to tote with joy, to name a few.
Topshop's dresses may have been getting all the attention this season thanks to the polka-dot pinafore dress and an endless stream of printed midis. However, the handbag department is really strong right now—from XL totes to mini buckets. Keep scrolling to shop the 15 bags that will make any outfit look 10/10.
