The It Bags of 2017 Have Just Arrived

While recently scrolling through the vast luxury e-commerce hub that is mytheresa.com, I couldn't help but be drawn to the new-in section of bags. Thanks to the Cruise 17 collections dropping online at this time of year, there are not only new iterations of your favourite power handbags (think J.W.Anderson's cult-adored Pierce or Chloé's Faye), but also some brand-new styles to join the elite lineup. Victoria Beckham has introduced a tote so perfect for work that we'd be happy to skip the Christmas break and stay in the office holding it close.

Perhaps you're in the mood to self-gift—give yourself a pat on the back for working so hard this year—or your mind is turning to S/S 17 and the ways you can start wearing the latest trends now. No matter what your aim, the best place to start is with a wardrobe-refreshing new piece of arm candy. And we'd say many other savvy girls are of the same mind-set—some of these standout buys are already selling out.

To enjoy (read: shop) the current selection of fresh It bags, simply keep going…
