Bags to Complement All Your Light Jackets
Style your many layers with confidence.
- Summer is coming to an end, which means it’s time to start preparing your closet for fall with all your seasonal layers.
- Learn how to style your light jackets with a bag that serves as an extension of your personal style.
As summer winds down and a crisp autumn chill fills the air, it’s time to reach for all those cozy seasonal layers. From super soft flannels to smooth leather jackets, these staples are an essential part of any fall capsule wardrobe. But after months of walking out the door with no jacket at all, it’s not always easy to style these layers with confidence.
Read on for the handbags that will complement all your light jackets, with styling tips for each.
Leather Jackets
Leather on leather is always a cohesive style statement, whether you’re going for an off-duty vibe with a slouchy carryall or more of a formal look with a polished shoulder bag. Style an all-white tee and baggy jeans with a leather bag-jacket duo (bonus points for styles in the same shade, too).

Denim Jackets
Denim is inherently casual and incredibly versatile, meaning a denim jacket pairs well with a variety of different bag styles and materials. For a cohesive yet trendy look, team your denim jacket with a denim handbag. Or, if you want something a bit more subtle, you can always go with the unmistakably iconic Little Black Bag (aka the Tabby, of course).

Bomber Jackets
Bomber jackets are a go-to casual style for all your quick outings—think running errands, grabbing a coffee or strolling through campus. And what better way to match your laidback look than with a canvas bag that’s equally relaxed? Sturdy and lightweight—and printed with our iconic pattern—Signature Canvas is style for your everyday.

Flannels
Keep it cozy all season long by pairing your favorite flannels with an extra soft and luxurious suede handbag. Thanks to their soft, supple exterior that molds to you, these bags often have the slouchy silhouette that feels just right for fall. Go for a roomy suede style (like the Chelsea or Brooklyn) for that effortless, off-duty vibe.
