For many of us, Halloween was probably our first occasion to go out into the world clutching a bag. It might have been a bag meant for candy instead of a purse for our daily necessities, but a relationship to accessories has to start somewhere, and it might as well be with a sack full of chocolate and sugar. In honor of that accessories anniversary (of sorts), we’ve scoured the Internet for bags that seem the most Halloween-appropriate for us. That means anything from bags that are genuinely creepy (stop peeking at us, Fendi Peekaboo) to bags that simply look like they’d be a great addition to some sort of very high-end costume (Versace, natch). So settle in, grab a fun-size Twix bar (or a dozen, no judgment) and let these purses put you in the holiday spirit.

I can’t for the life of me understand how that Paco Rabbane bag can cost upwards of 10G. It looks like an arts & craft project gone wrong.
I think the Charlotte Olympia clutch is adorable. The rest, not so much.
I love the Charlotte Olympia clutch and I think the Fendi peekaboo is genius! Love it!
That Charlotte Dellal girl is amazing ! The Nicholas Kirkwood of bag design !
Not all bags look so fantastic in real life, unfortunately . When you spend over 1k on a quirky clutch you would expect it to look far better than the Kate Spade version.. . but I love the “book of spells”
Unfortunatelly I haven’t had a chance to look them up IRL :/ That’s the disadvantage of living in southeast Europe – non exsistant luxury department stores and one Burberry store per 10 countries !
ha ha … tell me about it .. I am based in sunny Balkan Bulgaria – zero designer stores … but I do get to travel a fair bit
You lucky thing !! 🙂 I’m based right next to you, small Macedonia.
awww … Balkan sisters !!!!
I’m in love with the Fendi Peek A Boo! So cute!
the only scary thing about these is the prices because some of these are god awful ugly.
the Louboutin bag can be an effective weapon if you start to swing it around …
I just love the creepy Peekaboo
i can’t think why alexander mcqueen skull bags – especially in silver (that’s my halloween bag this year!) – aren’t really on the list! even the black would do well!
