Runway shows aren’t the only reason to love Fashion Week in New York. If you’re a fan of celebrity outfit stalking, this week is probably one of your favorites, as it brings to town all of the industry’s best-dressed A-listers, who, when they aren’t dressed to the nines for NYFW shows and events, are showcasing stellar displays of off-duty style.
Case in point: Dakota Johnson, who was spotted out and about in Manhattan after attending a number of fashion events, including a Bulgari Tubogas event in Brooklyn and a Kering for Women dinner. For her stroll around the city, Johnson chose a fall ensemble seeping with both ease and timelessness, from her taupe-colored Leset trench coat and vintage-wash jeans to her The Row eyewear and slouchy brown hobo bag. On her feet, she wore Adidas sneakers from the German sneaker brand’s collaboration with British designer Craig Green.

To be honest, though, I barely clocked anything from the outfit apart from her brown suede bag. My eyes were drawn to it immediately, specifically because I’d been searching for one just like it for weeks. Though it’s being called fall’s top bag trend by many in fashion circles, I can’t entirely agree. Rather, I’d call brown suede bags a hard classic in the handbag world, up there with buckled top handles and clasp bags. Sure, it’ll see spikes like the one happening right now, but if you have two buzzy bags in your shopping cart and one is brown and suede and one isn’t, go for the former. It’ll outlast any trendy style and get use for years—even decades—to come.
