Black bags are out: Reese Witherspoon proves this color is so much more chic
Bored of your old black purse? We're right there with you. While black is obviously the classic hue and hard to avoid when it comes to accessories, this season, why not take a cue from Reese Witherspoon and swap your standard black purse for a burgundy style?
The rich, wine-colored shade is surprisingly versatile and feels so much fresher than old standbys like black and brown.
The 48-year-old Oscar winner was spotted carrying Cuyana's Ola Bag in New York in late January and we haven't been able to stop thinking about the style since. The petite burgundy number is made with premium Italian leather and features an architectural gold top handle, as well as a crossbody strap. Witherspoon paired it with a red and black look that was giving us all the Valentine's Day vibes.
Witherspoon's Cuyana bag is at the top of our wishlist, but it will likely have to remain there for a bit, seeing as it retails for a steep $458. While this purse is a great investment piece, you don't have to splurge to add a burgundy bag to your rotation (unless you want to, to which we say, treat yourself!).
