Little things can make a big impact and there is no truer testament to this than in fashion. These days, I’m taking my look up a notch with statement color mini bags.

I have been doing quite a lot of traveling, so it is nice to opt for a smaller bag that fits only the necessities and still allows me to explore freely and lightly. Not to mention, they are ridiculously cute. For every outfit you own, I bet there is a tiny handbag that accentuates it perfectly.…

Play up monochromatic looks
Statement color mini bags look absolutely stunning when playing with a monochrome outfit – and they especially look great when photographed. They enhance a single color outfit by adding depth and dimension, making the ensemble more eye catching and interesting to the viewer. Since Spring 2018 is all about brights and pastels, look to statement color mini bags to revive your wardrobe and bring that unique element to your outfits. I’m sure you have plenty of white and blush bags, so don’t shy from trying something novel like lavender, orange, or green.

Promote Minimality
If you are used to carrying around a large handbag, it might be ludicrous for you to think about downsizing to a mini bag. Trust me, when I have a larger shoulder bag, I tend to cram so much more into it. When I eventually clean out my bag, I’ll find all my receipts from the past month crumpled up, 10 different lipsticks I forgot I owned, and a bunch of loose change. My mini bag forces me to downsize.
In addition to paring back on what you carry, you can also promote minimality in your looks. A simple black or white bag looks great with extravagant pieces that comprises of complex details and volume. Also, if you love wearing color as much as I do, then white bags help to break the bold pops.
