Since I can remember, I’ve been a handbag lady. Can family members recount how I usually wear small bag around as a toddler. It was an early sign of a lifelong passion for scrubbing resale site, sales and digital stand to find the perfect wallet. Of course, like all handbag lovers, I’ll admit it’s possible to own too much, but I’ll never believe this accessory to be mediocre. For collectors, we know that a bag can make or break an outfit. So even if we all enjoy watching new trend or give one rhinestones version, we know, at the end of the day, we have to have at least one basic bag that can go with everything.
What that staple bag looks like is up to our personal taste, but arguably there’s a definite must-have color: black. After all, this is the fashion color. It’s a must-have for every other accessory, so why not a handbag? It is an item that can attract all eyes and be worn anytime, anywhere. But to say that all black bags are created equal would be a lie. As a picky shopper, I know there can be bland black bags, and there can be stylish ones. You just need to do some digging.
Following that trend, I scoured the web to find the 42 best black handbags at every price point. From the distinctive hardware and materials to the shapes and sizes, the details of each bag prove that this staple doesn’t have to be boring.
