Winter vs. Spring: Bag Style Swap

• When the seasons change, so does your wardrobe.
• While plenty of handbags are versatile enough to wear year-round, swapping out your bag as the seasons change is an easy way to transform your style.
• Read on for our winter to spring bag style swap recommendations and styling tips.

As the weather changes, so does the way you express yourself. From cosy, oversized sweaters to lightweight vintage tees, it’s only right that your wardrobe adapts to the new season—while still remaining true to your own personal style, of course. And while many high-quality handbags are versatile enough to move with you from season to season, sometimes you just need a bag style swap to feel refreshed and put together for the new chapter ahead.

From winter to spring style, these are the swaps that will tie together your entire wardrobe.

If you’re currently carrying a suede shoulder bag in a warm neutral like maple or dark stone, make the swap to a straw shoulder bag—it’s lightweight, carefree and embraces the newfound warmth in the air. Plus, it’ll give off the same understated, effortless style in a texture that feels a bit breezier.

While darker shades and neutrals are ideal for colder weather, swapping to a bag with a bit more colour in the spring will add warmth to your wardrobe. Go from black to biscuit, pecan or even chalk for a bag style that goes with all your warm weather pastels—the Tabby has plenty of shades to choose from.

It’s finally time to shed some layers, which means you can transition from a larger bag silhouette to a smaller one—especially if you’ve been using your bag to carry your hat, scarf and gloves. Make the bag swap simple by choosing a style that comes in two different sizes with the same silhouette. If the larger style went with all your favourite winter outfits, chances are the smaller one will complement all your springtime looks.

Signature Canvas is style for your everyday—regardless of the time of year. However, if you’re hoping to incorporate the same sophisticated pattern into your all go-to looks but with a slightly different feel, try swapping maple Signature Canvas for melon pink Signature Canvas. Same iconic design, different season.

When you’re layering chunky knit fabrics to stay warm, incorporating a smooth leather bag is the best way to add textural contrast and dimension. But when the spring weather starts to hit, choosing a casual, versatile bag material like denim is always a good idea. Go for a denim-on-denim look and pair your shoulder bag with a jean skirt or contrast your all-white lightweight linens—either way, denim goes with pretty much any style.
