You've got granny bags, orange bags, mock croc bags, and even bags that look like, well, this. And honestly, we're pretty smitten with them all. To make the search for your go-to handbag a tad easier, we scoured the Internet to find the handbag trends that are making the biggest splash this summer. Ahead, click through the 8 bag trends to buy up now.

Crossover Bags
The top handle bag is a sartorial favorite, but it's hard to find a style that looks somewhat unique. In comes the crossover, a slight but style-enhancing detail that brands are incorporating into their summer collections.

Pencil Case Bags
We've graduated from using pencils and highlighters 8 hours a day, but that doesn't mean that we're over the cute-sy pencil cases we carried them in. Thankfully, our favorite designers are bringing pencil cases back with these long, skinny shoulder bags.

Orange Bags
First there was millennial pink, then Gen Z yellow. Now, the color au moment is orange. And if you're looking to embrace this trend, the best place to start is in the bag department.

Fringe Beach Bags
Since Jacquemus introduced this oversized tote in his SS19 collection, we've been seeing every fast-fashion brand, jump on-board — and good thing they did, because at this rate, there won't be a single Le Baci Bag left for us to get our hands on.

Barrel Bags
These mini duffles have a long history, with Louis Vuitton's ubiquitous logo'd silhouette going down as one of the early noughties' most iconic handbags. And just like most trends from that time, these are back and better than ever.
