- By Niraj Kakade

Leather accessories are the unsung heroes of fashion—no logos screaming for attention (most of the time), just impeccable craftsmanship and the quiet confidence of owning something that will outlast your latest existential crisis. From Hermès' equestrian-inspired elegance to Bottega's minimalist marvels and Louis Vuitton's Pharrell-approved audacity, these are the leather goods you'll want to flaunt, casually and confidently, all year round.

HERMÈS PURSANGLE TOTE BAG

Think of this as the Beyoncé of totes: versatile, effortlessly stylish, and endlessly talented. The Hermès Pursangle blends canvas and Clemence leather with playful wool accents, creating a bag that whispers 'summer in the Hamptons', even if it's just brunch plans. The signature "H" stripe doubling as a pocket? Pure chic practicality. Go bold with brighter shades for a statement or stick to neutrals for that understated, rich-uncle vibe.

▲ HERMÈS H PASSANT WALLET

This isn't just a wallet—it's practically an heirloom. Sleek Epsom leather meets the iconic "H" closure, turning even mundane errands into a luxurious affair. It's designed for cards, passports, and smartphones, making it an everyday essential.
