Crystal Bags Have My Heart This Winter—12 I Can't Stop Gawping at

This party season, we've spotted one glistening common thread amongst the fashion set. Instead of opting for a does-it-all black bag or a handy crossbody style, the fashion-forward have developed magpie tendencies and are all sporting glittering crystal bags this winter.

When paired with a simple LBD or a chic, pared-back party look, a crystal bag is the easiest way to dress up an outfit, no matter the occasion. If you're ready to go all out this festive season, dare to layer sparkles on sparkles, or play with textures such as feathers and velvet for a head-turning party look you'll want to wear on repeat.

Simple yet eye-catching, a crystal bag is the winter party piece that will keep on shining year after year. From early December get-togethers right up until New Year's Eve, rhinestone-embellished bags were made for fun.
