![Top-Handle Bags Are Everywhere This Summer — Get Yours Now](https://dailytimes247.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/11757067.jpg)
Calling all fashion enthusiasts: top-handle bags have been declared a handbag trend this summer. Celebrities and street style stars are incorporating the polished accessories into their warm-weather ‘fits, from posh ensembles like polo shirts, pleated skirts, and Mary Janes to summer dresses and the latest sneakers.
Fortunately, no two top handles are the same. The style ranges from sophisticated pillowy satchels to leather bucket bags to bejeweled mini purses. The best part is that some top-handle bags come with a detachable chain or leather strap that you can also fashion into a functional crossbody.
If you haven’t dipped your toes into the world of top-handle bags, we’ve got you covered. Our trendy list includes standouts from brands like Freja (seen on the arms of Hailey Bieber and Katie Holmes) and JW Pei (Gigi Hadid), as well as investment-worthy classics from the likes of Bottega Veneta. Browse the best top-handle bags ahead, and walk through summer on a trendy beat.
