Goodbye bucket bags! From beach-friendly straw totes to cool cross-bodies with adjustable straps, the circle bag has fast become the official “it” bag of 2018. We love how this Instagrammable handbag shape feels classic yet current and has the ability to elevate any outfit (the fact that Meghan Markle is a fan doesn’t hurt either). Also, many of our favourite brands, from Chloé to Zara, have mastered the trend, meaning that there’s a version for pretty much every budget. With this in mind, we’ve put together a list of 11 covetable circle bags you’ll want to round out your wardrobe this spring.
