The latest designer handbags ticking all the autumn 2018 trends have dropped, and there’s no better time than the present to invest in one. Now I appreciate it’s a big purchase, so to save you time and effort, I’ve rounded-up the best designer handbags from the new season that suit all tastes, styles, daily needs and budgets (yes, really).

If there is one piece worthy of investment each season, it has to be a designer handbag (and if you don’t believe me, some brands like Chanel are literally a better financial investment than gold). And while many designers are on-trend with their offering, there are also some classic styles that never go out of fashion out there too.

The best arm candy for AW19 ranges from the super-sized, with the coolest carry-alls in every colour, prints and texture imaginable – faux croc and snake are very big right now – to must-have micros, the small yet perfectly formed little numbers for minimal effort, with maximum impact – look to Fendi and Jacquemus for those.

For an altogether sportier vibe, belt up with the bumbag, or break out a funky beach bag in classic straw. Yep, they’re not just for summer, and if you don’t believe, ask Net-A-Porter, who have invested in the style have seeing a huge spike in sales (mainly thanks to Loewe let’s be honest).
