Oh! I'll mention this in the weekly round-up, but: StyleFind asked a bunch of stylists and their favorite fashion bloggers to help them select the must-have bags — the stylists have chosen their top 10, and there's one spot left for a blogger's bag choice.
(Can I just say how honored I am to be included in their list of favorites?)
If you could please vote for my bag, it would be hugely appreciated — you can vote for me, enter to win all 11 “it” bags, and check out all of the other bloggers' choices here.

Hunting for a great professional purse? In 2026, readers are loving affordable crossbody bags like those from Cuyana, Lo & Sons, and Madewell — also check out Clare V's bags.
In terms of a designer bag to suit your life as a professional, readers have been loving affordable(ish) luxury brands like Polène, Tory Burch, Strathberry, DeMellier, and Mansur Gavriel, as well as more designer bags like Chloé (particularly the Marcie line) and Mulberry. (If money is no object, Loewe and Bottega Venetta are always worth a look!)

Cute Prada bag, though I can only imagine how much that puppy costs. Great photo, too, Kat! The other bags are a bit “meh” for me, though. I can’t wait till this old lady purse trend is over.
I totally agree – Kat’s choice is the only interesting one of the bunch!
Kat’s winning right now! Go Kat!
I find it horribly ugly. Sorry, Kat, I just can’t vote for that.

Hi fantastic blog! Does running a blog similar to this require a large amount of work?
I’ve very little knowledge of coding however I
was hoping to start my own blog in the near future.
Anyhow, if you have any ideas or techniques for new blog holders feel free to share.
I know this is off topic however I simply had to ask. Thanks!
