Consider this the perfect guide to your next big handbag purchase. The Fall 2015 runways gave way to the ultimate wish list of both old styles and fresh trends we can’t wait to try out. The new shape this season? Well, let’s just say it’s hip to be square. Even straps are getting an update, as is your grandmother’s tendency to match her dress to her purse. But for those looking for something more timeless, be thankful that the runways were still filled with classic trimmings, like exotic prints and fringe. Getting excited? Take a look at the bag trends that will be on your shopping list soon. Source: IMAXTREE

Boxy
Every season, a specific bag silhouette seems to take center stage. This Fall, give your bucket bags a break and go for something much more square. Box-shaped handbags, whether in the form of legitimate hard cases or merely made with four distinct corners, aren’t just for your evening clutch anymore. Now, the more structured style is giving top-handle purses and even crossbodies a new look.

Slip-Through Straps
We love a good clutch, but there’s something about a handbag with a handle that is just so much more practical. It appears designers have taken note: slouchy clutches with a well-placed strap, just wide enough to slip a wrist through, have started showing up on more than a few runways this season.

Furry
Allover-fur bags have been carried down most of this season’s runways, some much fluffier than others. Whatever the size, it’s more about texture than volume. From wispy poufs to shaggy prints to hairy layers, not a single square inch is left uncovered in this season’s furry purses.

Oversize Chain Straps
Delicate chain straps are a luxe handbag staple. But chunky chain straps, made of plastic or lucite, add a cool edge to a more standard carryall. Plus, in bold colors and prints, the thicker chains add a bold — and literally loud — statement before even getting to the bag itself.

Fringe
The ’70s-style trim has fully taken over the Fall 2015 runways on jackets, skirts, and boots, and accessories are no exception. Some bags get the full fringe treatment, while others are adorned with fringed tassels — either way, it’s a nod to a more bohemian aesthetic.

Matchy-Matchy
They say never to match your shoes to your handbag, but come Fall 2015, matching your handbag to your dress is a styling must. The latest iteration on the trend is more than just pairing a red dress with a red clutch for a monochromatic feel. It’s now about exact matches in not just color but fabrication and texture, too.

Snakeskin
One of the most timeless handbag styles is coming back in a bold way for Fall. Whether real or faux, exotic prints — particularly different types of snakeskin — are showing up on bags in both natural tones and more saturated shades or orange, green, and red.
