Black leather bags are one of the easiest and most versatile bags to wear and find. We all get into that rut where we complain about not having anything to wear or having a 'fat day'. Sanity is within grasp when we slip into our favorite pair of black pants, black shirt, and black shoes. After tossing on some baubles and adding eyeliner and lip gloss we feel sane again. There's just something about the color black that women love! Black leather handbags are a wardrobe staple because they can be used during the day, at night, for travel, and they come in various sizes. Leather bags are sturdy and durable and you can keep a leather handbag for several years.
This fall leather clothing and accessories are making headlines. Hardware adorns leather shoes, leather skirts, leather dresses, and black leather handbags. The motorcycle cropped leather bomber jacket is a must have. Designer versions by Alice + Olivia and Alexander McQueen, as well as low budget versions made available through frugal warehouses Forever 21 and Target, are being snatched up by stylistas across the United States. If you plan to indulge in this hot leather moto cross jacket trend, you better come correct with a fresh leather handbag as well. The splurge ($655) comes by way of Longchamp. This doctor inspired satchel is truly this season's it bag. It's midsize, shiny, and couture. The steal is a Betsey Johnson Snake Charmer ($208) tote. This tote rocks the hardware that we just mentioned. A thick chain hangs from the tote and adds some serious eye candy to an already hot bag. Other steals: Flote Black Mavis Handbag ($74) Jay Handbag by Joes Handbag ($160)

Sometimes you may not be interested in lugging around a larger tote. Don't misunderstand us. We love big totes just as much as you do. However, recent studies show that the some of the pain we experience in our back and shoulders is on account of our whopper sized bags and all the loot we tote around. When it's time to go out, keep it classic with a basic leather clutch handbag. If you're hip you may want to opt for a leather wristlet. These bags are small enough to hold and a big enough to keep the basic necessities: cell phone, check card, one or two beauty products.
This Nino Bossi string purse is a great version of the popular urban sling bag. Sling bags can be fashionable and Nino Bossi proves it with this affordable version of the style. Three zippers in the front allow instant front access and less digging around for your keys. The long strap allows you to carry the bag traditionally, or non traditionally across your chest. One purse, mucho functionality. Steal! ($56)
Bright day dresses and floral prints are back this fall, and the best type of bag to carry is something basic. Refrain from looking too busy and over the top. A simple black leather handbag will get more nods than you can count. If you plan on indulging in bright sheaths and floral print cardigans and dresses consider these stylish black handbags to tone down your look: Lulla Bella ($74) J Furmani Clutch ($33)
We're excited to invest in a splurge or snatch up a steal. We hope you're excited, too, because black leather bags are here for the long haul!
