This season we think your handbag deserves some recognition—so much so that we’ve hand-picked outfits around the season’s freshest summer bags. Consider it a choose-your-own-adventure for the fashion loving set: An uptown, ladylike girl who favors Louis Vuitton’s Alma bag in punchy orange should keep her look girlie with a belted Proenza shirtdress, strappy Manolo Blahnik slingback sandals, and a classic Cartier Tank watch. For the romantic at heart, the Chloé Marcie saddle bag in soft blue looks sweet when paired with a vintage feeling floral sundress, a Current Elliot denim jacket, and Acne booties. Lastly, if you’ve got your pulse on the latest trends with a bit of an edge, the Givenchy two-tone Obsedia looks modern when worn with an of-the-moment Marc by Marc peplum blouse, skinny black pants by J.W. Anderson and, of course, zippered heels from downtown favorite Alexander Wang. —Nandita Khanna
