While each decade has its own television shows that leave a mark, the 1980s was full of some truly great comedy television. It was the era when we first met Michael J. Fox as Alex P. Keaton on Family Ties. We met the Tanners on Full House and the Seavers on Growing Pains. Then, there was Cheers, The Golden Girls, The Cosby Show, Family Matters, and Silver Spoons. And we can’t forget about iconic shows like Miami Vice, Roseanne, Murder, She Wrote, and Unsolved Mysteries.

The minimalist agenda took over fashion throughout the past few years, especially in the handbag department. Neutral tones, sleek asymmetrical shapes, and nostalgia-heavy styles replaced the maximalist handbag trends of the late 2010s. But fashion’s pendulum is swinging once again, and maximalism is back in vogue. It’s time to have fun again.

“People are ready for something new,” Joni Pangsaeng, the senior director of design and merchandising at Reformation, told The Zoe Report, blaming mini bag “fatigue” as the predominant reason for the big bag...

Assuming you weren’t distracted by her Maryam Keyhani hat, you likely spied them in the snaps of Sarah Jessica Parker filming scenes for the forthcoming season of And Just Like That: those sensible, faintly chunky clogs peeping from beneath her vintage Ossie Clark dress. In fact, Parker’s character Carrie Bradshaw has almost (I said almost!) as much history with Scholl’s Pescura clog as she does her Manolo Blahniks. Getting the perma-heeled Bradshaw into Birkenstocks required a hip surgery storyline in season one of the Sex and the City reboot, but she was wearing Scholl sandals way back in the mists of time – or at least, 2002 – in the original series.

The luxury market is rife with $3000 handbags with splashy logos. Strathberry is not interested in participating. Instead, the brand has excelled in what its founder calls the "attainable luxury" space. With most of its bags priced between $500 and $975, Strathberry appeals to customers seeking the same quality and craftsmanship of designer bags at a quarter of the price. Instead of paying sky-high markups for a loud logo, Strathberry fans are investing in premium leather products meticulously made by hand in Spain. A single Strathberry bag takes a minimum of 20 hours to craft—the exact opposite of fast fashion.
