Italian Suede Small Shoulder Bag
$144 at Quince.com
“This Italian Suede shoulder bag is a staple in my weekly outfit rotation for a reason — and it seems Quince shoppers agree, considering it’s finally back in stock after being sold out for months. It looks strikingly similar to a Prada purse I had my eye on for months, and I'm glad I ended up forgoing it. This casually cool alternative is spacious enough for all my essentials, and the whiskey color matches practically everything in my wardrobe.” — Ali Faccenda, associate editor

Italian Leather Foldover Crossbody
$123 at Quince.com
“Hands-down, this is my favorite purse thanks to its sleek yet spacious design. At first glance, it looks like a classic black leather crossbody bag, but the top fold unzips to unlock even more room to store my everyday items like water bottles, sunglasses, sunscreen, and even a bottle of perfume. I’ve used it nearly every day since I first tested it last summer and have detected no signs of wear, which is impressive because I am not exactly gentle with my bags.” — Jackie Tempera, writer
Italian Leather Mini Barrel Shoulder Bag
$110 at Quince.com
“I own more than a dozen shoulder bags, but I needed one that was not only minimal and versatile but also offered ample carrying capacity for my daily schleps through New York City. This barrel option — a lookalike for The Row's 90s bag — ticked every box. It’s sleek and cool, but doesn't necessarily make a statement, making it complementary to any outfit. Plus, it can easily fit my wallet, phone, sunglasses, and my boyfriend’s essentials with room to spare. If you’re looking for an everyday winner with the durability to last years, this is my pick.” — Olivia Cigliano, senior writer

Italian Leather Pouch Crossbody Clutch
$130 at Quince.com
“I reach for this bag when a special occasion calls for it, and I want to feel classy, whether a wedding, graduation, or Friday dinner date. Of all the Quince pieces I own, this bag has the most buttery Italian leather. I love that the dumpling-like silhouette is flexible for loading lots of essentials, and the magnetic closure keeps everything secure. As a clutch, it brings such a rich attitude to sundresses or jeans and a T-shirt, and you can also wear it crossbody thanks to the adjustable strap (which easily tucks inside the bag).” — Olivia Cigliano, senior writer

Italian Suede Shopper Tote
$178 at Quince.com
“Suede is surprisingly trending for spring and summer, and I’ve been wearing this rich-looking tote on repeat. It's just as luxurious as some of my designer bags, namely thanks to elements like metal feet, thick canvas lining, and, of course, Quince’s supple Italian suede. But it’s even more practical than pricier (fussier) styles, with too many internal and external pockets for me to count, plus a laptop sleeve and key holder, making it ideal for work. It instantly dresses up any outfit and makes my commute all the more efficient — what more could I ask for?” — Olivia Cigliano, senior writer

Italian Leather Handwoven Mini Satchel

“This satchel is the goldilocks of shoulder bags. It's compact, but somehow fits all of my essentials, including my Kindle Paperwhite. As a certified organization lover, I appreciate the built-in separator that helps me keep everything in its proper place. It also has card slots and a zipper pocket for valuables. It’s wearable over the shoulder or carried as a satchel, and the woven leather is ultra-soft yet structured, never feeling clunky.” — Shea Simmons, senior writer

“This is my newest addition to my handbag collection, and I’m surprised by how much I can pack into this compact purse thanks to its zipper pocket and built-in card holder that allow me to ditch a bulkier wallet. The woven exterior adds texture to plain outfits, and the cognac color is simple to pair with spring and summer outfits. You can wear it as a shoulder bag or a crossbody, as it comes with two sleek, detachable straps that don’t dig into my shoulders.” — Jackie Tempera, writer
