3 It Bags You Need ASAP

Yes, we’ll always love the Birkin and the Speedy. But for 2016, we’re switching up our love triangle a bit. How can we resist these totally trending shapes?! The truth is, we can’t. Here are three new It bags (of every shape and size) we’re coveting this year.

The Petite Clutch

Alexander McQueen Knuckle Long-Box Clutch

Unchain your go-to clutch and opt for this bag’s knuckle rings instead. They make it easy to hold – and they add rockstar edge. Bonus: No jewelry necessary.

The Midsize Bag

Chloé Clare Tricolor Leather Shoulder Bag

Named for the label’s creative director, this coloblocked beauty adds a feminine yet structured aesthetic to any outfit. Plus, its sleek shape holds more than you think, so it’s the perfect everyday pick.

The Big Carryall

Valentino Single-Handle Leather Bag

We love a good tote, but this single-handle version is its sleeker, more ladylike cousin. It’s just as roomy, but it feels fresh for 2016 – and we can guarantee everyone will be lusting after its of-the-moment shape.
