We're all for avoiding buyers' remorse at all costs, but when it comes to indulging in that great new fall bag, we're willing to give in to temptation (just a little). And our guidelines for the perfect autumn carry-all are simple: Timeless shapes with a little something special to welcome the new season in a fresh way...it's really just enough to justify a hefty price-tag or a cheap thrill. But try not to measure with money here! The right bag is as intuitive as it gets--how it looks is just as important as how it feels against your body and molded into a firm grasp. If it's right, you just know. Sure, the falling leaves might be triggering thoughts of pumpkin patches and apple cider, but for us, 'tis the season for beautiful bags in their entire canvas, leather, and nylon glory.
