As the temperature starts to drop we reluctantly pack away our casual, beach-friendly accessories in lieu of more structured pieces that work with our fall wardrobes. We’ve spotted croc-embossed bags on a multitude of style stars in recent weeks and think they are the ideal investment for the upcoming season. Available in a variety of sizes and rich hues, the luxe-skin accessory adds polish to every ensemble. This structured top-handle style is the perfect pairing for ladylike separates, off-duty outfits and winter coats. Here are some of the best options available now.

To prevent a petite croc-embossed bag from feeling too '50s avoid wearing it with a full skirt. Instead, choose a fluted version like this and pair it with a crisp button-up to keep the overall look polished and modern.
