Monochromatic bags are right on trend at the moment, so it’s a good time to get acquainted with this MICHAEL Michael Kors Large Satchel, if you’re into that sort of thing. Bright white, with a pop of black trim for contrast, it depicts the jazzy two-tone effect perfectly. With a lean and adjustable crossbody strap, it’s perfect for slinging on during the busy daytime hours before transitioning to handheld for a dinner date. Available for $358 at Bloomingdale’s.

How I love Michael Kors. Even the plainest designs somehow look interesting thanks to his skilled hand. From his MICHAEL Michael Kors collection, the Large Jet Set Logo PVC Duffle Bag is all set to accompany you on your wildest summer adventures – that trip to Europe, the annual beach trek with the girls, the family trip to Disney, whatever. It’s as spacious as you’d expect of a travel bag, and it’s sturdy enough to support heavy loads without weighing your look down. Available for $48 at Neiman Marcus.

As a former competitive tennis player, I can tell you that fashion very rarely entered my mind on the court. In fact, I was – and still am – a huge fan of classic tennis whites. Many pro players have done their best to change the canvas a bit, but in this case, at least, old school still reigns. That said, every now and then something comes along that kind of calls out my name. The MICHAEL Michael Kors Jet Set Neoprene Tennis Racket Case would actually contrast very nicely with a stark white skirt and shirt, and it’s not priced too badly either. It would definitely be a fun gift idea for that stylish budding Wimbledon champ in your life. Available for $138 at Neiman Marcus.

While I can’t personally envision spending over $100 on a wallet that I’m just going to slide right into my purse, I can see the appeal of the MICHAEL Michael Kors Striped Continental Wallet. It’s made of gorgeous leather, for one, and it epitomizes Kors’ penchant for perfect Americana style so beautifully. Any Kors aficionado would be thrilled with it. And since spring is finally here, it’s a good time to show those stripes, too! Lesson learned: not all wallets are meant to be hidden away. Available for $148 at Nordstrom.

This may be the sleek bag of the season. The MICHAEL Michael Kors Tilda Saffiano Clutch is available in several colors, including this bright yellow, plus navy, black and white. I’m partial to a little color (maybe because it still feels like winter and adding a little yellow to my life reminds me that this icy blast is only temporary), and this adds just the right pop to simple and dressy looks alike. Given how much you’ll use it, the price is perfectly reasonable. Available for $198 at Neiman Marcus.

If you’re shopping around for a simple, neutral bag for the warmer months to come, you almost can’t go wrong with the new MICHAEL Michael Kors Berkley Clutch. It’s available in three varieties: luggage, mocha and tangerine. Each is made of natural raffia and trimmed with one of the three colors. I’m partial to the mocha seen here, because the contrast is striking enough to be evident. With a sleek cutout handle adding a little glamour to the mix, it evokes a sunning-on-the-beach flavor – just what you need as we move into spring. Available for $188 at Neiman Marcus.

Surely there is no better way to embrace the start of a warmer season than with a pop of sunny yellow, and that’s probably why Michael Kors dipped his Gia Large Leather-Trimmed Woven Straw Shopper in it. Better than just average yellow, though, this is ostrich-stamped leather in the brightest of lemons – an uplifting color that breathes life to what would otherwise be a rather plain bag. Available for $795 at Net-a-Porter.

This Michael Kors Blake Crocodile-Embossed Satchel reminds me a bit of a Ralph Lauren bag. From the no-frills silhouette to the croc-embossed front panel, it adds a touch of heritage-influenced style to your wardrobe. Though it’s made primarily of khaki fabric, the leather and gleaming hardware up its price point a bit. It’s a great choice if you’re in the market for a classic, old-world style. Available for $1195 at Neiman Marcus.

Ooh, I really wish this was part of his lower-priced line. Let’s see here: fire engine red, pebbled leather, a cool and somewhat eclectic, retro-influenced shape? Do we really need to be talked into dropping a few hundred on this Michael Kors Moffit Boxy Pebbled Shoulder Bag? I’ve already have convinced myself! You may scoff at the sort of basic, less-than-exciting idea of a red bag, but check out the oversized golden plates on the sides. It’s a gorgeous finishing touch and makes the bag so special. Available for $995 at Neiman Marcus.
