On-trend bags

Bags are the fashion item that helps a woman navigate her life every single day and carry the things that matter most to her. It’s a considered purchase often driven by functionality and beauty in equal parts.

So ladies, before you consider which clothes to invest in, look to the runway first for the Spring/Summer 2020’s top handbag trends poised to overtake the high street any day now.

Bags highlighting buckles, stripes, dreamy florals and thick chains are on-trend in 2020.

There are a number of Irish brands that capture the essence of catwalk trends, but for a fraction of the price.

Remember, the right handbag can transform your wardrobe pieces from standard to fashion forward and on trend.

Statement-making Buckles

It’s all about the details for spring 2020 with statement-making buckles – both front and centre and more subtle.

Small, square purses at Proenza Schouler had their minimalist vibe disrupted by a large buckle going across the centre, adding contrast.

On velvet bags at Tommy Hilfiger, the oversized buckles gave a structural touch.

Finally, statement buckles decorated a whole range of Michael Kors bags, with the straps going over the bag vertically.

The buckle tote pictured from DICE (RRP €58), is available from Shaws and stockists nationwide.
