We may not be daring enough to purchase Chanel’s newest seasonal handbag right now, but we’re definitely ready to refresh our closet with a functional bucket tote or a stylish chain crossbody. You’re bound to see the following six handbags everywhere this fall—which is why we’ve rounded up our favorites at every price point.

Top-handle Bucket Bag
A structured top handle adds just enough polish to push our favorite bucket bag from casual to elegant. This midsize bag is dressed up without being stuffy and neutral enough to work with just about any outfit.

A Pop Of Neon
Electric yellow, hot pink, bright purple: Though this trend might bring you back to your music-festival days, a small neon-colored bag is just what you need to spruce up an otherwise neutral look. Think of it as a fun alternative to your classic black clutch.

Anything Sparkly
Fact: A bedazzled clutch gives an instant boost to even the most basic white-tee-and-jeans combo. As of late, we’ve seen these extra accessories practically everywhere (including on almost every Kardashian). Luckily, you don’t have to drop a zillion dollars for the latest Judith Leiber to get in on this trend. Plenty of less-expensive alternatives will give you the same look and feel.

Chain Crossbody
The chain-as-strap has moved beyond trend territory to become a classic detail, and we, for one, are glad it’s sticking around. This season, look for polished gold hardware paired with elegant details like knots and geometric quilting.

Anything Logo
Logo-embossed bags are back with a bang. Some of the biggest designers have rolled out new logo-centric designs on everything from mini crossbodies to large totes and top handles. If the price tag isn’t a total turnoff, consider investing in one.

Transparent Pvc Bag
The see-through trend you can’t get enough of is here to stay. Some of our most stylish heels and sandals sport PVC straps, and now we’ve got the handbags to match. They’ll never clash with your favorite floral skirt and they’re sure to stand out (in a good way, of course). Plus, you’ll never lose your keys again.
