2Susie Straubmueller 
Inspired by legendary  European handbag designers, Susie Straubmueller learned the art of leather tanning and crafting at the factory that supplies Chanel and Dior with their materials. The European influence is evident in her aesthetic. Clean lines and no visible hardware make these bags out-on-the-town and office appropriate.

3Charlotte Max 
Growing up, Michelle Lockhart always admired her grandmother’s collection of Lucite bags. This obsession eventually turned into a business, which she named in honor of her inspiration. The clutches—anything but old-fashioned—come in an array of hues and shapes and are embellished with geodes, pearls, and rhinestones.
