Today's Everyday Fashion: Shopping Update

| I wore this to church and errands yesterday. |
After a frenzy of online browsing last week (as seen in this post), I headed to the mall to check some things out in person! The Limited striped shirt I'm wearing was on my wish list, and although I was initially a tad disappointed (the quality wasn't as high as I thought and I also didn't realize the stripes were black), I decided I liked it enough to keep it anyway. The destroyed American Eagle jeans I originally had my eye on were not what I was envisioning (too much Spandex - I prefer thick cotton denim). But these jeans were absolutely perfect! The wash is what I would expect from designer jeans, fingers crossed that they keep their color. (I would also recommend sizing down if you order them. I'm usually between sizes at American Eagle - a size 4 is slightly too big, a size 2 is too small, but the size 2 fit perfect, no muffin top.)
This look also got me dreaming about owning my first black handbag, because I would've loved to wear one with this outfit. A few I am drooling over are below, and my plan is to scour TJ Maxx/Nordstrom Rack/etc. for a similar leather bag for less this winter. What color handbag would you wear with this outfit?
