Following the style legacy established by her famous mother, the fashion designer Carolina Herrera, Carolina Adriana Herrera has shown us that elegance is undoubtedly in her DNA. This stylish mother is considered one of the best-dressed women in recent years by the fashion community. With her daily choices, this heiress gives us a lesson in fashion, even while fulfilling one of her main roles, being a mother.

The types of handbags she uses daily share common qualities: elegance, timelessness, and leather, always with a touch of that ‘je ne sais quoi’ that enhances and elevates accessories. Naturally, her look, which is often monochromatic, is perfect for making her accessories, such as her handbags, stand out.

If you are a fashion lover, you know who Kelly Talamas is. And if you don’t know yet, let me tell you. I became aware of Kelly’s existence several years ago when she was the editor-in-chief of Vogue Mexico and Latin America. I frequently saw her at the fashion weeks of the world’s most important cities. Her style was sometimes classic, sometimes with a refined masculinity, and other times displaying the boldness characteristic of women who love fashion—prints, statement pieces, and so on. Without a doubt, her style whispered that sense of female empowerment in street style during that time. Today, I can still observe that distinctive style that marks every current or former editor-in-chief of a successful fashion magazine (she is no longer the editor-in-chief of Vogue). As they say, fashion fades, but style remains.

Nowadays, Kelly continues to be a stylish woman, now sharing her passion for art and fashion with motherhood. Her choices in handbags and purses have always been timeless pieces, but with great attention to detail. For her, the interplay of textures is fundamental.

Following this fascination I’ve always had with editor-in-chiefs, I couldn’t leave out Nina Garcia. A Latina woman, Colombian, who is a style icon not only in Latin America but also globally.

Nina is the editor-in-chief of Elle USA, and in her daily life and street style, she gives us a lesson in effortless style. Her signature pencil skirt (which falls below the knees) and usually a basic T-shirt or blouse are the perfect match and canvas to elegantly highlight her accessories. Knee-high leather boots, stilettos, and sandals in black or nude, mostly handbags and clutches.

I’ve seen very little use of XL handbags… I get the impression that Nina is much more comfortable using small bags. It’s likely a personal preference or perhaps a trend more common among mothers of teenagers. It’s worth noting that Nina is the mother of two boys who are already in that wonderful and complex stage of adolescence—a stage I know well and identify with.

In any case, I’m quite certain that the use of small bags is characteristic of a woman who knows what she wants and therefore doesn’t need to carry more than what she needs.

To conclude my small tribute to these mothers who combine motherhood with style, we have Victoria Beckham. A mother of four wonderful children, she shares one of the most stable, long-lasting marriages in the media world with one of the most beloved (and handsome) former footballers, David Beckham. In an era where celebrity divorces are so common, their enduring relationship stands out.

Over the years, Victoria has shown the evolution and growth of her style. Initially, I wasn’t a big fan of her style, but as she has grown with her fashion brand, she has perfected her style and way of dressing. Today, she is an elegant woman, favoring perfectly tailored pieces that align with the chic and effortless Parisian style I mentioned at the beginning of this blog.

When it comes to her choice of handbags in her daily life, Victoria Beckham opts for bags with straight lines, mostly in leather, and in earthy tones or classic black.
