A good black leather bag is an extremely safe bet when you want to look instantly chic, and this week it seems celebrities understood the assignment! As it’s fashion month, this also makes a lot of sense, and we’re putting this trick in our back pocket. When in doubt, go back to black!
It’s not just black bags we’re seeing, either, but all-black fits too, like Tate McRae’s Parisian night-out ensemble and Charli XCX’s London dinner outfit. While it may not be an original look, it is an easy, effortless, no-fuss fashion uniform that’s perfectly acceptable for celebrities (and mere mortals alike).
Tate McRae
Tate McRae kicks off our black bag parade in a head-to-toe black look, pairing her signature micro shorts with a sleek leather jacket and patent kitten heels for a night out in Paris. The Gen Z favorite waved to fans while carrying a Miu Miu Solitaire bag.
Margot Robbie
Riding on the heels of the Wuthering Heights hype, Chanel girl Margot Robbie kept it effortlessly cool while out and about in Sydney. She wore a chic new (and not yet released) East/West shoulder bag from Matthieu Blazy’s Spring 2026 collection.
Charli XCX
Charli XCX wore a look that was so brat for dinner at the Soho hotspot Rita’s Restaurant in London. She paired thigh-high boots with a shiny patent Baguette bag by Khaite.
Selena Gomez
Selena Gomez was spotted wearing the ultimate in cozy fits, pairing a maxi cardigan with Uggs on a chilly day in LA. The shining star? Her Valentino Garavani DeVain bag.
Jodie Turner Smith
Jodie Turner Smith kept it casual while traipsing through a farmers market in LA before jetting over to LFW for the Burberry Fall 2026 show. The actress wore a hoodie with light-wash jeans with a not-so-casual bag choice—a classic black Birkin.
