What we want from a bag isn’t always complicated. We want it to be made of supple materials that feel gorgeous to the touch. We want it to have a strap that’s a delight to handle, a clasp that’s simple to snap shut, and details that are pleasurable to look at. Little things that bring lots of joy. Here are the picks of this season’s most gorgeous, from a snuggly sheepskin-lined model to a lithe little cross-body clutch.
