10 Holiday Purses You’ll Want to Tote Around This Season

My favorite part of the holiday season — aside from getting together with family — is getting glammed up for all of the parties. I love amping up my makeup and picking the perfect purse to finish off my outfit. In my opinion, this is the time of year to go all out with your bag, opting for sparkles, bright colors and maybe even a fun pattern. Nordstrom has endless options of designer and affordable handbags, and I rounded up their best holiday-esque picks. You’ll always get compliments when you tote around one of the following 10 designs.

1. The Bow on Top: Rich red hues are perfect for the holiday season. The color reminds me of a pretty bow on top of a present, and the unique knotted handle on this Olga Berg bag gives the purse a similar effect. Plus, it’s covered in rhinestones! — $95 at Nordstrom!

2. Twinkle Tinsel: The holidays are the perfect time to break out your metallic accessories. You can’t go wrong with either color of this Madewell Mini Bag. Since it’s on sale you might as well get both silver and gold — $53 (originally $88) at Nordstrom!

3. Star of Wonder: If the night sky inspires you, you’ll adore this celestial studded shoulder bag from Staud. It can be the finishing touch to any holiday outfit, but it will also make a statement when worn year-round — $350 at Nordstrom!

4. Shimmer Shimmer: For those who don’t want to go for a head-to-toe sparkly look, a good place to incorporate sequins is with your purse. This sapphire MZ Wallace bag has the perfect amount of sparkle — $185 at Nordstrom!

5. You’re A Star…and so is your purse when you walk in carrying this quilted leather star crossbody from Kurt Geiger London – $185 at Nordstrom!

6. So Fancy: I have a feeling that Audrey Hepburn would’ve worn something similar to this Nina glitter clutch to one of her holiday parties. It’s timelessly elegant — $55 (originally $78) at Nordstrom!

7. Something Green: While many people will opt for a neutral bag, dare to be different this holiday season with this green JW Pei handbag — $50 (originally $129) at Nordstrom!

8. Stylish & Sleek: If sparkles aren’t your thing at all, you can’t go wrong with a sleek red leather handbag. People often forget that Sam Edelman makes great options (yep, the brand has more than just shoes) and this pick is one of our favorites! — $165 at Nordstrom!

9. Feathers! I like to break out my ostrich feather coat for special occasions. and this year, I’ll have this purse from Olga Berg to match! — $84 (originally $125) at Nordstrom!

10. Lookin’ Luxe: Few fabrics look as opulent as velvet, which is why this Tory Burch quilted velvet crossbody will be the perfect holiday companion – $398 at Nordstrom!
