No matter what you’re buying, you tend to want everything in your closet to do more than one thing. That’s especially true when it comes to bags. After all, who has time to run home from work and change before a night out? More often than not, it’s straight from the office to happy hour or dinner, and you need a bag that can keep up with your schedule—and look good any time day or night.
These are the best day-to-night bags for fall.
Stella McCartney The Falabella Shoulder Bag
The soft, flowing structure of this shoulder bag from Stella McCartney means you can pack it up during the day and leave just what you need at night to minimize its heft. The badass hardware gives it an edge no matter when you carry it, and fashion's reigning queen of sustainability has crafted it from luxe faux leather.
Metier Perriand Mini Suede Marrakech
Thanks to its clever square shape, this Metier Perriand bag holds a lot more than you'd expect. The suede is as soft as a cloud, while the hand-braided handles add a luxe touch—and make it easy to carry. Just remove the detachable shoulder strap and it’s ready for an evening out.
See By Chloé Joan Shoulder Bag
Put it in neutral with this shoulder bag crafted from textured leather. Signature See By Chloé details, like the braided gold ring and tassel, echo the house’s equestrian roots. Meanwhile, the suede front flap hides a pocket that’s perfect for storing your phone for easy access.
Mansur Gavriel Mini Leather Bucket Bag
Mansur Gavriel almost singlehandedly reignited the bucket bag craze when it introduced their now classic signature bag in 2013. Made from Italian leather, the bag works with anything you pair it with. And despite its petite size, you can fit an impressive amount inside.
Rebecca Minkoff Bedford Zip Leather Satchel
When you can’t leave anything behind, this streamlined satchel from Rebecca Minkoff will carry everything in style. Millennial pink is a hue that works everywhere with everything, and the grained leather gives the color gravitas. Skip the crossbody strap in the evening.
Brahmin Ella Melbourne Crossbody
Crossbody bags are ready to go, day or night. This one by Brahmin is big enough to fit all the essentials for your daily needs, but small enough to work after dark. Lots of pockets also mean you can stash your stuff and keep it organized.
Wandler Mia Medium Leather Tote
From the boardroom to brunch to a happy hour, this structured Wandler tote is designed to go the distance. Multiple strap options mean you can carry it whichever way works best for the occasion. It’s roomy enough to pack your tablet, but its sleekness means it works after hours.Shop Now
