We all need large totes that carry our essentials and extras, but let’s not forget to keep a few smaller bags handy for when the occasion calls for it.

Miu Miu’s Wander matelasse nappa leather mini hobo bag in red is pretty iconic, characterised by its sophisticated, three-dimensional effect and its hobo shape which blends retro inspirations and contemporary elegance.

Made from Monopaname lambskin, Louis Vuitton’s Square Bag features a green-and-blue Monogram pattern, evocative of the colours of a Parisian street-sign.

Fans of the Harry Potter franchise will be thrilled to add more merchandise to their collection, like the items in Carlo Rino’s Harry Potter Special Edition range. It includes the Harry Potter wristlet short wallet, available in Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, and Slytherin colours (yellow, red, dark blue and green).

If you thought Barbiecore was on its way out, think again! Steve Madden’s BHeart shoulder bag in faux leather is as pink as it gets, with gold hardware to complement.
