This autumn, a fresh colour trend is coming to the fore, and its earthy tones have me hooked. A palate cleanser to the black and grey bags that typically dominate this time of year, autumn's olive-green bag trend is on the up right now. Intrinsically appealing—olives are, in my opinion, one of the tastiest foods out there—this colour is inviting on so many levels. Naturally versatile, the rich green shade styles well with a broad palette of deep hues whilst contrasting nicely with brighter shades such as pink and yellow.
Adding dimension in a wearable way, olive feels fairly muted—almost akin to a neutral—making it easy to style with most autumn outfits. It's no surprise that the colour is coming through heavily this season, as the runways predicted its revival for autumn back in February. Showcasing olive looks en masse, brands including Burberry, Ferragamo and Ulla Johnson gave the underrated shade the love it deserves. Just as chic as the burgundy and brown we're seeing so much of, olive green is perhaps the most directional of the bunch, which is why fashion people are so drawn to it.
Already all over my Instagram feed, the emerging handbag trend is ready to be snapped up in stores. Cropping up across H&M, Reformation and Sézane, as well as at Loewe and Bottega Veneta, the olive-green bag trend is rivalling its black and brown counterparts this autumn.
Whether bobbing in my martini or sitting in my wardrobe, I'll always be into olive. If you're also inclined, read on to discover the best olive-green bags to shop this September.
