Because every step is better when it’s shared.
Hi friends,
As we move into the holiday season, I’ve been reflecting on the incredible journey of building my handbag line — a journey filled with joy, challenge, growth, and so many unforgettable people. Creating a brand I love has been one of the most meaningful chapters of my life, but it has also been one of the hardest. I truly couldn’t do it alone.
Today, I just want to say thank you.
Fall is here, and one color that is standing out everywhere — from runways to real-life wardrobes — burgundy. Rich, elegant, and surprisingly versatile, burgundy is the shade to wear this season. Whether you're dressing head-to-toe or adding just a pop of it with your favorite accessory, this deep wine-inspired hue brings a sense of luxury and warmth that fits perfectly with the colder months ahead. I personally love this color and tend to wear it with grey, navy, and blush pink. ✨ Why Burgundy Now? Fashion moves in cycles, and as the weather changes we tend to crave comfort paired...
There’s something about spring and summer that makes color feel extra exciting. After months of neutrals and layering, the fashion world is bursting with fresh shades — from dreamy pastels to bold brights — it's time to have some fun with color!
At Stephanie Taylor Handbags, color is a big part of my design process. I hand-select leather from Italy and Spain not only for its exceptional softness and quality, but also for its rich, dimensional tones. So naturally, I have a few thoughts on this season’s color trends — and my own take on how they translate into timeless, versatile bags. Because let’s be honest: the right bag has a way of pulling everything together.
How to Spot a High-Quality Leather Handbag
A great leather handbag isn’t just an accessory—it’s an experience. The way it feels, the way it ages, and even the way it smells tell a story of craftsmanship and quality. But with so many options out there, how do you know if you’re investing in the real deal? The secret is in the leather itself. Let’s break down the different types of leather so you can shop smarter and with confidence.
A logo is more than just a symbol—it tells a story. It represents the values, experiences, and inspirations that shape a brand. For me, every element of my logo is intentional, carrying deep personal meaning and reflecting the journey that led me to where I am today.
