Fun fact: I’m a huge proponent of cleaning and clearing out one’s closet regularly. Not only does this help reduce clutter and potentially earn you some money through resale, but a curated wardrobe also lets you see and, thus, get more use out of all the truly great items you have. However, the one thing I never get rid of is handbags. Ask my husband; no matter how high they stack in my bedroom, something about purses makes me too nervous to ever part with them, for fear that an older one has a chance of coming back in style (which, as we all learned from the Dior Saddle redux of 2018, happens more often than you’d think). Plus, you can never grow out of them! Major perk.
So, as you could probably guess, aside from hoarding bags, I also love researching them—and occasionally snagging one too. For that reason, I always have my eyes on what’s new and my mind on what might be the next big thing. If that sounds of interest to you, just keep scrolling to see and shop the 20 new It bags I think are going to be everywhere this year.
