Following yesterday's post, I thought I would share ideas on how to accessorize the only way possible this season - with a hand-held mini bag! Yes, large shoulder bags are, for the foreseeable future, a thing of the past, and it's all about clutching yours in your fist, to the waist or to your chest.
To begin, British Heritage brand Mulberry:
I'm feeling black bags right now (more below...), and I love the tassel on this one.
Shiny, black and mini. Perfect!
This time delicious plum.
The coveted one:
By Celine, this bowling bag is the one everyone was talking about.
In close-up detail.
Another bowling bag by Dries Van Noten, this time in navy velvet with a tan trim.
The fur show-piece:
By Ellie Tahari. I'm currently having flashbacks to Clueless (I must watch that film again soon). Guaranteed attention for wearing this.
The monochrome:
Both by Louis Vuitton, these would carry an entire A/W wardrobe.
Love the metal strip and tiny studs on the base!
See the silver padlock?
The hold-all:
The larger bags this season really are all about the above, credit goes to Marc Jacobs.
The white clutch:
Again a white clutch like this one by Miu Miu, similar to Louis Vuitton's, would pair with anything you wear now - jeans, jumpers, suits, LBDs...
And lastly:
The new it-bag:
A shiny white cylinder by Stella McCartney that you just know is full of precious objects wins my vote.
Buy your miniature bag now and I have a feeling your small and discreet accessory will be with you for a while.
