Tough Totes

These lasting leather bags are more than a one season trend.

This trend is about as far away from boho as you can get, with classic leather handbags being all the rage.

There is no room for slouchy or soft-sided with this style—as designers like Givenchy and Michael Kors have made very clear from their collections of structured leather purses. Keep them as over the shoulder bags or held in the hand, never across the body, to achieve the polished look of a sophisticated woman.
