Trendy Fall Handbags: Soft and Slouchy Favorites - Brahmin 

August 2025

Relaxed Style to Carry into Fall

As the crisp air rolls in and layers become our everyday essentials, we’re turning to one of this season’s most relaxed and elegant handbag styles: soft and slouchy. Designed to seamlessly move with you and complement the richness of autumn, these styles offer a fresh way to embrace fall style and timeless luxury. 

Spotted on runways and on the streets of your favorite cities, less structured handbags bring a sense of ease to your wardrobe. Think buttery leathers, soft suede, and elevated textures that drape naturally over the shoulder or fall perfectly under your arm. Not only is soft and slouchy a clear choice for a fashionable statement, but Brahmin handbags are also known for their exceptional functionality. 

Whether you are on a casual stroll the park, enjoying a warm pumpkin spice latte at the local coffee shop, traveling to your favorite fall destination, or attending an elaborate dinner party, Brahmin’s soft and slouchy handbags exude casual refinement, high standards, confidence, and an elevated taste in fashion. 

How to Wear Softer Leather Handbags: 

1. With Refined Layers 

Pair your new handbag with your go-to trench coat, a chunky knit sweater, or a tailored autumn colored blazer. The softer and lighter structure offers a beautiful complement to high quality materials like cashmere, wool, and leather. 

2. With a Monochromatic Look

Hand select a handbag in a shade slightly deeper or lighter than your outfit to add depth without distraction. A toffee-colored soft handbag paired with light, brown-toned separates brings balance to a minimalist look without losing its quiet elegance. A smooth green leather handbag paired with a deep, rich autumn green outfit instantly delivers a modern look and feel.

3. Day-to-Night Versatility

Opt for slouchy shoulder bags or soft clutches that can transition from office to evening to weekend plans. Styles with adjustable straps, metal hardware details, or subtle exotic texture make it effortless to dress up or down for any time of day.
