In a vibrant neon lime, Versace’s Biggie Xbody will elevate any outfit, while Givenchy’s Logo Camera Bag in slick black leather is a true fail-safe. Feeling romantic? Bottega Veneta’s cult Jodie Bag in pastel pink is sure to turn heads while Saint Laurent’s Hobo Calfskin Bag might just be the one they’re ready to commit to forever with. We can’t get enough.
