Taylor Tomasi Hill, Style and Accessories Director, Marie Claire

Taylor explains: "A clutch is usually thought of as a special occasion accessory, but I love the idea of carrying one during the day – any day of the week. These are large enough to fit all of your essentials and the play between the textures makes a strong statement both at the office and at more formal events.”
High: Marc Jacobs beaver fur clutch, $1,382.65, at My Theresa
Low: Asos fantasy fur over-sized clutch, $47.18, at Asos

Kyle Anderson, Senior Accessories Editor, Elle

Kyle explains: "This season one of the big things is 'luggage leather' - very simple, great quality bags. Two of my favorites are very similar and actually everyone (high to low) has great bags like this. You can buy them now and pull them back out in 10 years and still wear them for sure."
High: It's great. Perfect size, perfect color and shape and only gets better with age. ChloƩ aurore leather bag, $1,995, at Net-a-Porter
Low: Again. I love it. It looks like a million bucks. It was in the October issue of Elle. Get a similar version, $139.90, at Mango online
