J.Law and Gwyneth Just Wore the Bag Colour That Makes Any Casual Autumn Outfit Look Sophisticated
I can't be the only one who has found that the change of seasons—and therefore a fresh need for knitwear—is taking some adjusting to. Just as I'd got into my summer style stride it was suddenly autumn, and I'm now I need to remind myself how to look chic for the cooler months. Reluctant to be swallowed up in chunky knits and oversized jackets, I'm looking for ways to keep the sophistication of the past few months alive, and thanks to a handful of celebrities, I think I've happened upon the solution.
Right now, I'm calling on accessories to do the outfit-elevating for me. Inspired by the chic handbag trend that I've noticed some of my favourite celebrities using to add polish to their casual looks, this autumn, I'm officially in the market for a sleek burgundy bag.
Having spotted Jennifer Lawrence call upon the chic accessory to refine her relaxed outfits, I'm hoping a burgundy bag can do the same for me. Wearing hers with a slouchy cardigan, simple white tee and relaxed black trousers, Lawrence used a top-handle, croc-embellished burgundy bag to add some structure to her look. With an enviable collection of designer bags in her wardrobe, Lawrence is one of the first celebrities I look to for accessory inspiration at the turn of the season, and her crimson pouch has energised me once more.
Also choosing a handbag in a rich shade of merlot, actor Gwyneth Paltrow styled her Hermès Birkin with a relaxed V-neck knit and a pair of cropped, dark-wash jeans whilst in Paris this week. A casual outfit it may be, but Paltrow's chic hold-all instilled her outfit with the elegant energy she's so well-known for.
Nodding to the change of the season, the burgundy-bag trend taps into the rich colour palette seen throughout nature at this time of year. When added to an outfit, the opulent tone helps inject depth, giving an outfit another layer of dimension. Appearing across a host of autumn/winter 2024 shows including Chloé, Miu Miu, Jil Sander and many others, the runways affirmed that this wearable shade remains as relevant as ever.
Another elite member of the burgundy bag club is Sofia Richie Grainge, who tapped into the trend last month when she was also spotted sporting a Hermès style across her body for a shopping trip in L.A. Perfecting hands-free mum life, the rest of her outfit was just as low-key as Lawrence and Paltrow's respective looks, but her sophisticated bag choice made her ensemble feel all the more polished.
More than inspired to take on the trend myself, I've curated an edit of the best burgundy bags available to buy now.
