Earlier this week, Reese Witherspoon was photographed in Midtown NYC carrying a handbag from one of Meghan Markle's favorite brandsCuyana. The Morning Show actress donned a black wrap trench coat, bright cherry tomato red pants and red pointed heels, tying the look together with the Cuyana Ola Bag ($458) in a deep burgundy shade. And when a brand gets the celebrity stamp of approval from not only a royal but Elle Woods herself?

The San Francisco-based luxury line specializes in elevated basics and gorgeously designed pieces that simplify your wardrobe, embodying the company motto, "Fewer, better." The Turkish-made Cuyana Ola Bag that Witherspoon has is made from premium smooth Italian leather and is characterized by its unique wavy structure in the gold metallic handle and body of the bag. Though it's a statement piece, the Ola Bag is perfect for carrying around on a daily basis or for a special occasion, given that it features two expandable compartments and a dividing pocket that'll allow you to organize all your essentials—I'm talking wallet, keys, gloss, the works. And it's even equipped with a back pocket as well as a crossbody strap for versatility in wearing it.

Not only was Witherspoon spotted with an "It Girl" bag, it also happens to have been in burgundy, one of the trendiest colors of the fall and winter. And the hue shows absolutely no signs of stopping. It's totally trickled into 2025 and even PureWow's Associate Fashion Commerce Editor, Stephanie Meraz, predicts that burgundy and navy will be the unexpected color combo we'll be seeing a lot of this winter.
