Lady Like Bags are Back...



and I couldn't be more thrilled! After several seasons of oversized hobo bags (which I must admit I appreciated because they worked well as diaper bags!) Grace Kelly's style has returned!



This season, take a cue from your grandmother's closet and search for the ultimate tailored bag. They come in all sizes so chose the size that works for you. Most of them have a handle and some of them come with a detachable shoulder strap. Put some thought into how you will use it and make a choice that works for you.



Here are a few of my favorite trinkets, tokens and treasures:




Treasures:






The Hermes Kelly Bag was named for the iconic Grace Kelly who used it to cover up her baby bump! You don't need a bump to pull of this this look though. It is certainly and investment bag but one that can be passed down for generations. This season, choose one in a fun bold color to accent you fall pieces.BVLGARI's colaboration with actress Isabella Rossollini resulted in a bag that I just adore. Although it also come is a warm camel color, I adore this black bag with it's dark green accents. It is so chic and I am dying to get my hands on one!




Tokens:







Elaine Turner's Jackie Metallic Suede Snake Bag is a fantastic fall choice. It is a lot of bang-for-the-buck at $295. The inside of the putty bag is hot pink which makes me smile and the detailing is wonderful. It also comes in bronze. You will be right on trend with this bag that was inspired by the amazing Jackie O.




Trinkets






On sale now (from $149 to $107.99), you can steal the look from old-school Doctor with the Guess Leona Bag at Macy's. This structured bag comes in Black and Camel (super hot color this season!). I love the modern lines and contemporary take on such a classic style. Unlike some of the other lady-like styles this season, this bag has plenty of room to hold everything you might need for your busy day. It is perfect for the gal-on-the-go!
