Your New Fall Bag: The Ladylike Top Handle
-
Tory Burch
You probably won't be matching your bag to your outfit exactly like the models on Burch's runway. But picking up a printed bag like this will allow you to incorporate a motif that you hesitate to put into your outfit. Do it!

Reed Krakoff
It doesn't get more chic than this. Reminiscent of a structured doctor bag, this number from Reed Krakoff has a more laid-back, modern appeal. Prepare the inside crook of your elbow, it's going to be doing some lifting this season.

Michael Kors
Micheal Kors is known for his upscale ladies-who-lunch collections, so of course he needed to feature the top handle. This bag in pure winter white is a show-stopper. The quilted detail and mirror-like hardware give it high end style.

Boysenberry
Not quite red, not quite purple, love the color of this bag. It's ideal for fall. And this one has a carpet bag vibe that makes me think its interior will hold all of your daytime needs and then some!
-
Croc
We've been loving leopard for a minute here, and are all primed for a new skin to lust after. Croc makes for super sophisticated accessories.
-
Locked
Again, gorgeous color that creates a departure from brown, but will look smashing with everything. And the longer strap creates carrying versatility. Definitely want to lock this one down.
-
Patent
I love this for a lunch meeting. Such a power color and the patent finish just feels, for lack of a better word, fancy. I can imagine this with a Hitchcock heroine look!
-
Mother of Pearl
Okay, I couldn't resist. I know we're talking about day bags here, but how adorable is this? More for nighttime fare, this top handle will look chic swinging from your fingertips.
-
Silver Star
Part utilitarian, part rock star, what isn't there to covet about this bag? The terms "urban jungle" and "weekend warrior" have new meaning now.
-
Gold Stud
Leave it to Betsey Johnson to make a classic fun, youthful and trendy. I sort of wish I had at least one stud on everything I own. This bag could make up the difference.

Candy Girl
Can you see this on a rainy day? The bright color will cut through drab weather. The transparent style makes me think of all those wonderful shiny rainy day accessories.
