When we think about accessories this season, the first thing on our mind is getting our hands on a new bag to add to our collection.

Whether from the High Street or a designer boutique, we have chosen a selection of our five favourites.

Mini satchels are everywhere at the moment and if you don’t want to break the bank, try this lovely brown one from NewLook.com. Work the snakeskin trend without going all out with the beautiful oversized clutch from UrbanOutfitters.com. Great for a night out and it will actually fit in all that make-up!

For something a little more classic and wearable everyday, we love this Belen Echandia shoulder tote bag. Sometimes we need a new everyday bag and this one is just what you’ve been looking for.

For something with a little more glamour, why look any further than Browns. It takes a little investment to look this good but with a Lanvin masterpiece on your arm it’s definitely worth it.

Finally we turn to old reliable Topshop.com for the in between of affordable and luxury. What we came up with? The leather classic lady bag. The perfect way to add a bit of elegance without dipping into the overdraft.
