Later Bag Wood

Later Bag Metallic Silver

The JC Later handbag is polished and pretty but still has an urban cool to it. It has lots of potential to be a good everyday bag as it will go with lots of different styles. In the wood leather color, it looks quite 70s and bohemian but then you see it in silver and it looks very 60s mod and futuristic.

The Later bag also comes in Metallic Green. All of the bags have cool buckle closure and metal hardware.

Later Bag Green Metallic

Here are a few ideas for what to wear with the Jeffrey Campbell Later bag. This bag is great because as I mentioned, you can just throw it on crossbody style and have hands free for a day of shopping, running errands etc. Also great for a music festival or night out for the same reason. Especially good, because it doesn’t look “hippy dippy” or messenger bag like – it looks like a real purse, which I think is a good thing.

The Later purse would be cute with vintage dresses of course – 60s mod shifts, 70s long maxi dresses, 80s everything. It’s perfect with a pair of leggings and a long tee and some layers as it gets colder. A pair of flat boots, tall booties, or ballet flats and you are good to go – sneakers even.

Poppy Red Peplum Dress $58
Zoey Black Dress SALE $81.95

As far as dresses – I think the Later messenger bag is way cute with a body con girly dress, especially in the silver color. I’d pair the brown wood look leather one with a cute 60s bohemian dress like this awesome one by (FAV brand) For Love and Lemons.

Animal Instinct Long Sleeve Blouse $68
Black and White Stripe Skinny Jeans $90

The JC Later is also great with jeans or leggings. These black and white striped skinnies by Motel are super hot – a great t-shirt or tank plus the bag and you’re golden. I like the addition of this fun leopard animal print long sleeved shirt for fall. I think either the metallic green, the silver metallic bag or the wood leather would be terrific with this look – add a pair of short boots or flats – some cute menswear oxfords perhaps, for an easy look.

Sam Edelman White Flat Shoes $100
Jamison Black Boots $125

Both of these shoes would look great with the JC Later bag – there are tons of rad JC shoes that would be amazing too – the Lita of course and lots of killer fall options. These white shoes are ideal because they are flat so you don’t have to worry about high heel pain if you are walking around for hours. If you like at least a bit of a heel, the Dolce Vita Jamison booties are favorites for their classic shape, comfort and of course their good looks.

You probably have a billion things in your closet now that would look awesome with the Jeffrey Campbell Later handbag – so get to it and start putting outfits together!

Big Mike Clutch Wood

This leather envelope clutch has a modern feel with the grainy wood look of the leather making it very unique and special. This particular clutch is cool because it doesn’t look super dressy and stuffy but it will still look terrific with dresses for evening. Here are a few options that I think would look fabulous with Big Mike.

Lacy White Peplum Dress $58

Raspberry Pumps $80

This little ivory peplum dress is so sweet – paired with a great pair of heels and the Big Mike in faux bois leather – stunning.

The Big Mike Clutch bag is also available in a clear black plastic (fully lined and a pocket inside) in the same cute envelope shape. Magnetic closure and a black leather wristlet handle – it’s easy, sleek and great for a night out.

Big Mike Clutch Black Plastic

I think the clear black Big Mike would look great with some of these pieces for a night out:

Faux Leather Skinny Jeans $78
Cross Heels $400

These Friends of Mine Cross Heels are so insane. A bit of a splurge for me but if my size still remained, I would probably not be able to resist. Such statement boots. They’d look amazing with so many things but for this look, I’m pairing them with the clear Big Mike clutch, a pair of leather skinny leggings and a drapey top and biker jacket for fall. (And a sexy bra top or bustier for the heat of summer as an alternative.)

Sheer Fishtail Ivory Tee $38

Wool Blend Biker Jacket $110

Dressed up or down, the Big Mike makes a big splash as a nice oversized envelope clutch to hold all of your essentials.

Bridgeman Bag Black Leather

Bridgeman Bag Leather Wood Look

With a ladylike vibe, a classic shape but a slightly funkier feel, the Bridgeman is a great work bag or everyday bag. It comes in black and in a stunning ‘wood’ leather. Bridgeman is boxy, has pockets and shoulder straps and along with a top handle so it has a multiwear functionality; you can wear it as a backpack!
Here it is in black:

Now, check it out in the faux bois style wood look leather – so cool:


Wood Bridgeman Bag

Here are a few outfit ideas that I think would look awesome with the JC Bridgeman handbag.

Multicolor Woven + Leather Jacket $378
Red Belted Dress Pants $78

I like the idea of this bag being one that is cool for work and then you can throw it on your back and go do what you need to do with your backpack on. I think this leather jacket with a rainbow of color detail is so pretty and looks dressy but still really cool and could be super casual with some sneakers or flat booties. I like it with jeans, leggings, shorts or for work, with these red dress pants – really easy to wear. The Bridgeman bag goes with the sophisticated vibe and you can just have a super sexy bustier top underneath or to change into and the outfit changes.

Black T-Strap Wood Heel $60
Patent Neon Yellow Pumps $99

As far as shoes, tons of options – I really like these t-strap style platforms. This pair is kind of a knock off of the JC Foxy or the Jessica Simpson Dany (which I own and adore) and for $60 is a steal. Because of the wood heel – they are a perfect match for either one of the Bridgeman bags. If you need a closed toe shoe for work, this neon yellow pump in patent leather would be fabulous with the Bridgeman handbag (black or wood) and would look stellar with the jacket, and/or the red pants above. Super sexy and in charge.

Tangerine Bell Sleeve Dress $70

Studded Short Biker Boot $140

For a cute weekend or out and about day – this little orangey red dress is adorable with a pair of flat boots and the Bridgeman. This pair of studded short boots is perfect – they’d also be a really versatile pair to have as they go with pretty much anything. This dress, these boots + the black Bridgeman = SO CUTE.

If you love the Jeffrey Campbell Bridgeman, hurry and get it – there were only a few left in wood and in black when I last checked!

Posh and cool, the Jeffrey Campbell Jay bag is one of my favorites from the fall collection.

Jay Bag

This bag has many elements – leather, beige fur, bronze leather and a beautiful large shape for a girl who likes a big bag (me!).

The shape is elegant and the details are funky and interesting with a unique combination of textures and colors.

Do you like the JC Jay purse?
Here are a few pieces, shoes and clothes that I want to wear with the Jay bag.

Jeffrey Campbell Grayson Patent Black Beige $189
Caged Black Bustier Dress $68

This bag looks wonderful with the Grayson patent booties by JC. It’s also a natural with a LBD – this body con dress with strappy rib cage detail is super sexy. The Jay bag elevates it for me – just add a nice jacket and go.

Faux Fur Coat $78

Opening Ceremony Wool Stripe Flared Onesie $430

Love this adorable faux fur leopard jacket – looks far more expensive than the $75ish price tag in my opinion. So cute with leather pants, with shorts, over dresses, maxi skirts, jeans and so on – great little statement jacket year round. I like it paired with the Jay bag. This jumper onesie in fall colors is also fantastic. Wear it with a tie neck blouse or with a simple thin long sleeve tee as shown – add the classy Jay bag and all you need are shoes.

If you like a small bag, the Jay is probably not for you but if you like a roomy, large tote, the Jeffrey Campbell Jay is a pretty tote for fall.

In black pony hair with cool rock and roll details, the Davie bag is a Jeffrey Campbell bag favorite.

Black Davie Bag

The Jeffrey Campbell Davie bag is a luxe black pony hair bag that can be worn as a cross body bag or a satchel with the look of an uber chic oversized fanny pack. The zippered pockets are covered in stars and studs – metal! The JC Davie measures 18″ W x 15x tall. It has an adjustable strap with a 13″ drop.

Here are a few things I want to wear with the Davie bag.

Motel Freya Fur Jacket $138
Black Sequin Mini Skirt $48

Leather Panel Silver Sequin Pants $528

One of the most fun pieces I’ve seen for the season is the bright teal fur jacket by Motel – the Freya Fur -adorable, fun and ultra glam as well as affordable. With the Davie bag, a pair of sequined leggings or pants — so rock and roll. This pair of silver sequined pants with leather panels is pricey but sooo gorgeous for inspiration. A sequined skirt or pair of shorts would be rad too. Jeans, black or print pants would look terrific too.

Grey Cutout Shoulder Tee $38

Super Skinny Dark Jeans $40

And a few shoes ideas to wear with the Davie bag.

Lita Spike $190

Dolce Vita Dempsey $150

Naturally, the Lita Spike is an obvious choice to pair with the Davie – cool, edgy, spikes on a black leather Lita bootie. I also really like these boots by Dolce Vita – with a cool silhouette, an interesting heel and great details – these boots are really good for fall.

Black Fold Down Spike Boots $289

Glitter Moto Boot $245

Glitter ankle boots are fun for fall and this pair is a great compromise between stylish and functional with a low enough heel to walk around comfortably. I love these fold down spike covered flat black boots too. Amazing with jeans, little dresses and more.

If you are looking for a basic luxe black leather backpack, check out the GWHIHS McCarthy Backpack.

The latest in McCarthy – the McCarthy Puppy Tapestry backpack. Whether you own a pair of the hot JC Puppy Dog tapestry Shoes (Litas or Lanas) or not — this puppy dog backpack is way fun.

McCarthy Puppy Dog Tapestry Backpack

This one reminds me of the super classic backpack shapes I had as a kid but done in a rich tough black leather with cool canvas detail.
If you love the puppy dog tapestry print but the backpack shape isn’t your thing, the print also comes in an amazing iPad case available HERE

McCarthy Backpack Black Leather

The JC McCarthy Rose Backpack is a bright and fun bag – perfect to bring some floral into the wardrobe. In punchy bright pink and red on a white background – the Girls We Hated in High School McCarthy Rose Bag is adorable and vibrant.

Cute things to wear with your McCarthy backpack:

Jeffrey Campbell Rose Backpack

Hot Little Red Shorts $48

Steel Cap Lita Black Silver $175

I think the bag would also be great with a little dress. This affordable cute dress in lace would be great with the McCarthy and a pair of booties or combat boots. On the right, some seriously hot leggings. Safety pin leggings with some attitude, a JC bag and a great pair of shoes – all you need for a good look.

Lace Dress 60s Style Sheer Dress $58

Snake Bite Leggings $192

Finally, work the black leather backpack with a pair of equally fierce boots. This awesome major black boot is by edgy cool brand Unif but you could also do some great JC combat boots or something else. A great thing to wear them with would be a pair of bright sexy jeans – these Kink purple high waisted jeans are great looking and would look as good with a pair of sexy heels as a pair of sneakers – meow!

Purple High Rise Denim Jeans $88

Hellbound Booties

Obviously, with the simplicity of the McCarthy, you can really rock it with anything – jeans, shorts, skirts, dresses and more.

If you are looking for a backpack that is a little funkier and more JEFFREY, check out the already famous Rizzler Backpack

What will you be wearing with your Jeffrey Campbell McCarthy Backpack?

Continuing with the cool girl backpack trend, the Jeffrey Campbell King rocks the backpack in a royal way.
New King just released – the King II in monkey tapestry – bananas!

King Backpack Monkey Tapestry

So much fun – the Jeffrey Campbell Monkey Tapestry Backpack is a rad way to add some happy cuteness to your wardrobe. It is black leather and tapestry with a drawstring top and multiple pockets to keep all your stuff handy.

Jeffrey Campbell King Fuchsia Jaguar

King Backpack Jaguar

Currently available in a black and white jaguar print, the King backpack has a cool shape and in black and white animal print, it looks good with everything.

With spots, buckles, zip pockets and accented in with grey black canvas – this bag is edgy and sophisticated. I like how the edges look a bit rough in some places. It’s a really cute bag.

Here are a few ideas of things I want to wear with the JC King Backpack.

I’m loving a bright body con dress like this citrus yellow neon one. The black and white jaguar bag is a cute print with the neon yellow dress. For something a bit more casual, try this cool raw edge Unif Inverted Skull tank. I love it with the GWHIHS King backpack. Pair if with shorts, jeans, pants, a maxi skirt, a mini – and add a jacket or sweater when it starts to get chilly.

Neon Citrus Yellow Cutout Dress $68
Skulls Cross Tank $65

I also love a more wintery cozy look with the King Backpack. I always have coats and boots on the brain. I like layers, what can I say? Digging this contrast leather jacket. With quilted leather sleeves and a big oversized collar in a wool blend – it’s cozy and sleek.

Viper Leather Contrast Jacket $240

Leopard Zip Pants $128

Are you feeling an animal print bag for everyday or more of an outfit specific print for you?

Are you a backpack kind of girl? Do you plan to carry a backpack like the JC King this fall?

One strong contender for hottest eye catching bag is the Abatte purse. In the brightest neon colors, and striking shape with three buckle front on a messenger style flap bag – this one wins look at me points across the board.

Buy Neon Abatte Bag

The JC Abatte messenger comes in neon yellow, in neon orange and neon pink. The bag will certainly add punch to any outfit with its juicy colors and futuristic style.

If neon isn’t your thing, check out some of the other terrific and fresh JC Bags where you can find bags in black leather, navajo print and other cool prints, colors, shapes and sizes.

The Abette bag packs a punch – get your Jeffrey Campbell Abatte bag in your favorite neon color for summer and wear it all year long.

Another fun bag in the GWHIHS line up is the Jeffrey Campbell Afner. It’s a cool crescent moon shaped bag with tassel pulls, zippers and a long strap for a cross body carry which I love.

Black Canvas Afner

The JC Afner hobo comes in a few different color options. You can get the Black Canvas Afner, which has black leather details on a grey black distressed canvas fabric.

The Afner purse has a long strap so you can wear it cross body – it’s also adjustable so you can wear it on the shoulder and shorten the strap as you like. Check out the tassel zipper pull and the cool zipper pocket detail on the front. Afner has a removable inner coin purse. How big is the Afner bag? Here are the measurements: it is 16″ wide x 9″ tall and 3″ depth.

The Jeffrey Campbell Afner also comes in a snake suede pattern. The reptile embossed suede pattern in grey and white really works on this hippie crescent moon shaped bag. The mini coin purse is also in the snakeskin print.

Here are some photos of the bag – a close up so you can see the little mini purse

Snake Print Afner

Do you like the snake python print or the black canvas black fringe Afner?

Here are a few pieces that inspired me when thinking about outfits I’d pair the JC Afner with.
The bag obviously works with tons of outfit options – you can wear it with dresses, with vintage pieces, drapey pieces, jeans, shorts, and so on. This is just a little peek at two different options I like and think look great to wear with Jeffrey Campbell bags focusing on the Afner here of course.
Look one
I’m thinking black jeans – these Brigitte Won Hundred Skinny Jeans are pretty nice.

Black High Waisted Jeans $150

Add a cool tank or t-shirt or blouse – here are two options I like.

Skeleton Tank $68

Pale Tribal Print Tie Blouse $38

Then, add a cardigan or jacket for a chilly night or colder day. I think a leopard cardi is pretty versatile and you could throw it on with lots of outfits and it works with either the snake print Afner or the black one. The abstract silk Arizon kimono by One Teaspoon is stunning and would look terrific with either bag as well. A little motorcycle jacket would be cool too if the weather was cooler.

Slim Leopard Cardi $88

Silk Abstract Kimono $298

Now, the icing – a pair of Jeffrey Campbell Booties naturally. I think this new Lita in Engineer stripes would work particularly well with this outfit and with this handbag.

Engineer Lita $162

I like the look below with these engineer booties too. Now, here is the second outfit option to wear with the Girls We Hated in High School Afner bag.

And the bag of course

Look 2:
A maxi dress, a fitted jacket, the Afner and a pair of heels.

Start with the dress:

StyleStalker Addict Black Maxi Dress $78.40 on Sale

Add the jacket

Stylestalker Youth Brigade Jacket $259

And like a true JC girl, rock the O’Wilde Shoes in either Burgundy Velvet or Black Velvet for a head to toe amazing look.

JC Velvet O’Wilde Heels

And of course on the way out, grab your bag and you are ready for a night of looking fabulous and having everything you need in your bag in the most glamorous hands free way possible.

Buy the Afner

Do you like the Girls We Hated in High School bag line and what do you think of the Jeffrey Campbell Afner in particular?

For those who like a small bag – the JC Hoffman Bag, an adorable little mini with an ultra long strap is great. My latest favorite Hoffman purse is the Brown Pony Hair. Check it out:


Brown Pony Hair Hoffman

Chocolate brown suede, pony hair detail, suede tassel, tiny shape perfect for going out or for a long day when you don’t need to have everything on you – this little number is great.

The Hoffman is the perfect substitute for a wallet and is great for a night out or for day when you don’t want to be lugging around a huge purse. The JC Hoffman comes in purple with orange and fuchsia and has all of the little cool details you expect from Jeffrey Campbell purses. The colors are fun, the tassel is adorable, the strap is nice and long so you can wear it cross body or hanging long on your shoulder. You could throw this little bag into your backpack or larger purse so it’s ready to go when you want to ditch the big bag.

Get the Orange and Purple Hoffman

If bright color is more your thing, check out the orange and purple Jeffrey Campbell Hoffman – saturated shades of orange and purple on a little bag adds a nice little pop of color detail to the outfit. In other bright color shades, the Hoffman comes in a bright blue suede. A little bit 80s, a little bit rock and roll – the blue is deep and dark and not over the top on this little bag.


Blue Suede Hoffman

Snake Print Hoffman

The Hoffman also looks amazing in snake print. Python like this works great as a neutral so this bag would look good with so many outfit options. Besides the snake Hoffman, you can also get a metallic Hoffman. The Metallic handbag comes in gold and silver with a black tassel and black trim. This little number is totally disco chic. It is perfect for nights out or to wear when you don’t need to carry much with an all black ensemble. It has just the right amount of metallic shimmer without being cheesy.

Metallic Hoffman Bag

If something a little lighter and more subtle suits you better, check out the Hoffman in natural woven fabric with a bright cornflower blue contrast. The strap and the flap are blue leather while the rest is a cool ivory natural woven fabric.


Blue Leather Natural Woven Hoffman

The Hoffman is such a versatile little bag. Here are a few things I want to wear with the JC Hoffman crossbody.

Rock it with a cool leather or faux leather skirt – this pleated one with a swingy shape is awesome and I think would be so cute with any of the Hoffman color combos. It would look super rad with the python or metallic one with a bustier, vest or tee as pictured. Pair it with booties, oxford flats or combat boots. If you want a really stand out pair of shoes, check out the black magic platforms without heels – super crazy and definitely a good time to have a hands free bag like the Hoffman in case you need to hang on to something.

Vegan Pleated Leather Skirt $148

Black Heel Less Mega Platform $118

Love the cross body bag with a hot vibrant body con dress. This electric blue twist middle dress is one of my favorites and it works with really any kind of bag – super cute with the JC Hoffman in any color – the pink and orange, the metallic, the python, black. Naturally, a pair of jeans is a good pick. These super skinny jeans are fun and 80s sexy. The shoes are pretty phenomenal too – Jeffrey Campbell Safety wood platforms – hot!

Electric Blue Dress $68

Super Skinny Jeans $78

Jeffrey Campbell Safety Platforms $145

For a night out or a day of shopping, the JC Hoffman is a fun easy hands free bag.

The Girls We Hated in High School bags are super hot for summer and like JC Shoes, they add instant cool to any outfit. Which is your favorite Jeffrey Campbell GWHIHS Hoffman?
