’Tis the season for the calendar to fill up with festive invites and glittering celebrations. When the holidays arrive, your go-to bag will become more than just an accessory—it’ll be the ultimate confidence-boosting +1, and an integral part of holiday events. From dazzling dinners to New Year’s countdowns, or cozy get-togethers with loved ones, the right bag will add polish, practicality and just the right amount of sparkle. Here, we’ve curated some tips for getting in the spirit and finding the finishing touch to your holiday party looks.
The Statement Bag
For evenings that call for amping up the Wow!-factor, a bag crafted of beaded satin or a bag featuring shimmering crystal or metallic accents will catch the light and add shine to any room. If you’re wearing sequins or an otherwise dramatic look, you can balance out the sparkle with a neutral wristlet that can be worn over your shoulder by the strap.
The Convertible Carryall
When you don’t have time to stop home to change between events, a versatile bag will be your best friend. Bags with adjustable straps that can double as a shoulder bag or a crossbody will help carry you from celebratory brunches to evenings out with ease. You can also opt for a top-handle bag with a detachable shoulder strap for extra versatility.
The Mini Crossbody
Compact yet impactful, a mini crossbody will keep the essentials close at hand while still elevating your look. Match the fun size with a playful color or eye-catching embellishments for an accent that pops. Or, try a timeless hue that’s been quilted for a polished effect.
The Refined Shoulder Bag
With structured silhouettes and polished hardware, shoulder bags—like the Tabby Shoulder Bag 26 or a quilted Tabby with chain-link strap—will offer understated elegance for dinner parties and family gatherings alike. Pair them with slip dresses or tailored separates for effortless sophistication.
