Best Bet: Petite Ombré Bags

New season, new bag. After hauling your work gear, gym clothes, groceries, and laundry around the city during the day, at night it’s time to give your oversize shoulder bag a rest. Sally Lapointe’s ombré leather pouches are stylish, versatile, and effortlessly petite. The wristlet is an easy accessory for stowing the basics — phone, debit card, lipstick — and the crinkly chain-link purse makes an eye-catching accent for any of your go-to all-black ensembles.

Sally Lapointe leather pouch, $70, and chain purse, $198, at Convent.
