There is something undeniably chic about an extra-large bag—and it works on everyone, no exceptions.
have always been a huge fan and proponent of the extra-large bag, as they are chic by nature. Size is the key—as is a fabulous silhouette.
Having said that, I often hear from clients who feel they are “too small to carry an extra-large bag,” to which I always respond, “Your size doesn’t matter.” The extra-large bag silhouette is seriously chic—regardless of your stature. Add one to your wardrobe, and mark my words—you will look incredible and incredibly chic.
As you peruse the selection I’ve shopped for you, you will note extra-large totes—the most generous size-wise of the bag categories—along with crossbody bags, shoulder bags, and top-handle satchels. However, the totes make up the lion’s share of the shopping—and they are magnificent! Leather, raffia, canvas, and even linen are represented.
Before you dive in, a few important notes that will absolutely aid you in your shopping journey. First, if a bag silhouette interests you, be sure to click through and note the actual size. Images can be very deceiving, and a bag that appears small may in fact be immensely oversized. Though all of these bags fall into the extra-large category, there is still a wide range of scale that may strongly influence your decision.
Second, many of these bags are available in multiple colors. While I’ve shown only one color for most, you will definitely want to explore the additional options—there are some truly fabulous choices.
And lastly, you will notice that many of these bags could easily fall into multiple categories. In some cases, they were so close that I had to make a judgment call on where to place them. For that reason, I strongly encourage you to peruse all categories so you don’t miss a single standout piece.
These fabulous bags are perfect for everyday use, work, travel, and even the beach or pool. Regardless of your needs, these are timeless treasures you will reach for again and again.
