Fall Essentials: Bags

Fall is a season of incredible highs and lows. One the one hand, there’s cooler (let’s be honest, better) weather. On the other, we are left to deal with the unfortunate grotesque proliferation of pumpkin spice flavoring pumped into every edible product across America.

Fashion in the fall however, always reigns supreme. The right temperatures coupled with an incredibly rich autumn color palette guarantees the perfect environment in which style truly percolates to its finest degree. That is of course, if you do it right.

This year, pistachio and burnt orange tones have taken center stage on Fall 2019 runaways, along with asymmetrical cuts and a particular focus on texture – the more knitwear the better.

This is all good news for bags and accessories, who while having their own seasonal, trend-focused forecasts, are there to compliment and amplify your sartorial choices in all the right ways. Of course, it goes without saying that if you’re planning outfits around bags rather than the other way around, you’re absolutely on the right track as far as the StockX Bags department is concerned.

However you proceed in the coming weeks, a new bag is guaranteed to lift your mood and then some. Check out our curated must-have essentials for fall and start the season off in style. Just watch out for the pumpkin spice puddles.

A relic from Galliano’s Spring/Summer 2000 collection for Dior, the Saddle Bag recently galloped back into our lives and has rightfully reemerged as a fan favorite. The Dior Saddle Bag features signature blue Dior Oblique jacquard canvas as well as leather detailing, and gold-tone jewelry.

The Louis Vuitton Pochette Volga

Virgil Abloh’s Pochette Volga is one of the most coveted accessories from the Men’s Spring/Summer 2019 collection and the kind of white you definitely can wear after Labor Day. Crafted in white monogram taurillon leather, this Pochette Volga features a detachable strap and a ceramic chain-link zip closure.

The Gucci x Commes des Garcons Shopping Bag

This distinctive brown paper bag tote encompasses both cool and casual. The Gucci x Commes des Garcons tote is incredibly roomy and covered in clear PVC and features Gucci‘s iconic red and green web stripe.

The Chanel Classic Double Flap

Chanel’s quilted lambskin in light blue is dreamy, and also giant. This classic double flap features gold chain and leather link straps with a gold Chanel CC turn lock and is the kind of bag that’s a feature, not an accessory – subdued, neutral hues will make it pop.

The Prada Tessuto Tote

The perfect transition bag between summer and fall, Prada’s shopping tote is crafted from sturdy tessuto nylon, the same material that reinvigorated the brand and launched it into a global phenomenon. It also features saffiano leather trims, golden hardware and a zip top closure.

The Chanel Vintage Flat Flap

This iconic vintage Chanel Vintage flat flap bag is crafted from black lambskin leather and opens up to a burgundy interior with a zip compartment. This vintage bag is a staple piece in your wardrobe no matter the season, but particularly shines in the fall.

The Fendi Mon Tresor

 With gold-tone hardware, this orange Fendi Mon Tresor bucket bag is a sheer delight. It comes with two detachable shoulder straps (one long, one short), making it a multifunctional bag that will carry you through the entire season.
