This Fall, the handbag department is touting a lineup of rocker chic-inspired collections that feature oversized studs, gleaming silver and gold buttons, and chain handles galore. If you've always had a little bit of a rocker-girl style in you, this is the season to show it off! Some of the leading handbags of the season are designed with an edgy look with oversized hardware and darker colors for that tough-girl look you crave. From chain-handled shoulder bags to studded hobos, here are some of the leading looks in handbags for Fall:

1. Gunmetal hobos and satchels. While black is still a top pick for handbags this season, gunmetal silver and pewter shades reign the runways this year and are a great match for your rocker look. Look for charcoal, dark silver and pewter handbags and clutches that will accent any outfit with a fresh and sassy look.

2. Studs galore. From the miniature clutch to the oversized hobo, studs are cropping up on every piece of arm candy you can find. Look for matte silver and gleaming gold studs that look like they've been pulled right off a motorcycle jacket.

3. Chain handle shoulder bags. If you're looking for a versatile bag to last you through the season, stick with the classic shoulder bag embellished with chain handle accents. Chain handles are a top trend in handbags this Fall, and your best bet is the oversized chain style that becomes the focal point of the bag. Not only are these handles super-sturdy (yes, you can tote your heels, wallet and a few books without worrying about breakage), but they will give you that edgy, rocker-inspired look you crave.

4. Coil accents. Coils, oversized metal hardware and rings are some of the embellishments you'll find on the tough-girl bags this season. Look for crossbody bags and satchels accentuated with these details for a fresh and fun look.

5. Extra zippers. Zippers serve a dual purpose on hobos and satchels this season, and you'll find a number of bags with lines of zippers as part of the design. They're just another way to show off your rocker-chic look for the season.

Oversized tote bags are a necessary addition to any summer ensemble, but you can pull off a more pulled-together look with the help of a bucket bag. Bucket bags are the roomy, semi-casual bags designed for the woman-on-the-go, and unlike totes, these bags are usually made with patent leather, thick canvas and supersoft leather that will stand the test of time. You can carry these bags when wearing a casual summer dress or your crops and khakis this season; they're one of the most versatile accessories for the season.

If you're thinking about investing in an oversized bag this summer, consider some of these must-have bucket bags for the season:

1. Coated canvas bag. This Kate Spade Kiawah Bag is a great addition to your weekend ensemble with its large handles and weaved pattern. This eye-catching bag features a platform base with small feet for extra protection when you set it down, and can be used for hauling magazines across the pool deck, rounding up some goods at the Farmer's Market, or just for carrying around on your next shopping trip.

2. Soft leather bag. Trade your hobo or tote for a sensibly-sized bucket bag made with soft leather. Celebrate summer with a bag that's pink, orange, turquoise or green for some extra attention. These bags are just the right size for carrying your novel, wallet, iPod and sunglasses, and for making a fashion statement in the process.

3. Printed shoulder bag. If you're looking for a seasonal tote-style bag for everyday use, stick with the clean and crisp style of a Dooney & Bourke Bag that holds your personal technology device, sunglasses, magazines and wallet with ease. These bags are designed with thick fabric and leather trim, and are great for weekends trekking across town on your errand-run.

Bucket bags are a great way to show off some fresh new styles and colors this season, and balance out your summer wardrobe. These bags are available in both miniature and extra-large sizes, so you can find the perfect match for replacing your tote, shoulder bag or hobo this season.

Summer season might mean that you're hitting the beach or sunning by the pool more often than not, but that doesn't mean you have to haul around your oversized bags and totes all season long. This season's hottest trends in handbags can be found in the clutch department, and you can choose from dozens of fresh and funky styles to complement your summer look.

Designers are turning out beautiful oversized and miniature clutches covered in bright and bold designs, and you will find a handful of flashy patent leather or classic woven bags for your summer ensemble. Whether you're a luxury fashionista or sporting the bohemian look this season, make sure you're reaching for a colorful clutch this summer!

The Glossy Patent Leather Clutch
Chic, shiny and begging to be touched, a patent leather clutch is a great way to round out your summer look and take the shine factor up a notch. Pick out a bright pink, red, yellow or turquoise patent leather clutch for your daytime or evening look.

The Woven Clutch
Celebrate summer with a stylish straw or woven metallic clutch that captures the essence of the season. These fun, eye-catching bags are great for toting along at the luncheon or evening soiree, and you can even find a few with sequins and metallic embellishments. The woven clutch is a versatile and attractive addition to any summer wardrobe.

The Bejeweled Clutch
Jewels and gems are the ultimate embellishment for the luxury fashionista, and you can carry a beautiful clutch emblazoned with jewels if you wish. These sparkly bags are perfect for a night on the town, but you can also find some daytime-worthy bags made with embossed leather and elegant accents.

The Envelope Clutch
The giant envelope clutch is a must for any handbag enthusiast who thinks they're not quite ready to transition to a strap-free bag. These oversized clutches offer plenty of room for your basics, and you can brighten up any outfit with a bold red, pink or blue accessory.

The Animal Print Clutch
From zebra stripes to leopard spots, animal prints are back for another season, and you can sport the look with a cute and colorful clutch. Take a walk on the wild side with a pouchette or long rectangular clutch that is sure to turn a few heads!

Warmer temperatures call for light summer dresses and a care-free look, which means it's time to ditch the heavy leather handbag and trade it out for a fun, stylish clutch. A clutch is the perfect accessory for the weekend barbecue, casual day at the office, or just to take along for your weekly errand runs.

This year's hottest trends include the oversized, envelope clutch style that can carry all your daily necessities and keep you looking stylish and organized. Here are some other top trends to keep an eye on this season:

1. The Slim Animal Print Clutch. Pick up a long and skinny clutch covered in a bold, eye-catching leopard print to heat up your look this season. These are perfect for carrying the basics; credit cards, ID and an iPhone, as you go about your busy day.

2. The Fan Clutch. Add a feminine, luxe twist to your ensemble with a satin or leather fan clutch embellished with metallic details. The Nite Fan Clutch by Stuart Weitzman is the perfect example of this showstopping look - it's perfect for those special social occasions.

3. The Patent Leather Clutch. Go matchy matchy with your patent leather heels by sporting a contrasting color patent leather clutch. These handbags are ideal for carrying your lipstick, cash and keys for a day of shopping. This season's hottest colors are bright green, pink, yellow and orange, but you can also stick with the basic black or white to complement any summer outfit with ease.

4. The Quilted Leather Clutch. Show off your love for leather with a soft and glossy quilted clutch. Look for styles with an oversized buckle or metallic embellishments to catch this season's trend wave. These are ideal for the office or weekend getaways; just tuck them under your arm to add a classy and stylish finishing touch to your ensemble.

5. The Patchwork Clutch. Add a Bohemian-inspired touch to your ensemble this season with a patchwork clutch covered in contrasting suede, leather or canvas details. The patchwork effect works best with a one-color outfit, and is a fun and playful look for day or night.
