Trying to keep up with the latest fashion trends can be a never ending task. Is blue the new black? Is black the new blue? Big bag or small bag? Will it never end????? Here is a quick reference of the spring and summer handbag trends designed to give you a guide on where to start when choosing your new purse for this season.
· Large totes are the spring item – it seems designers want us to have room for it all! Of course they are also coming out with smaller clutches and wallet purses to carry IN your totes…… Smaller bags are still a popular choice though so don’t despair if your shoulders and back can’t handle the large bags.
· and how about colors? Animal prints – leopard is huge, snakeskin and croco textures are big as well as the comeback of the patent leather and the bright colors so don’t hold back, let your purses command attention! Metallics are continuing to be popular from last year and will be around for most of 2007.
· As well as the prints and shiny colors for this season the trend of embellishment is gaining popularity. Such touches as ruching, fringes and tassels are a few that you will notice. There’s also studs, plaiting, ruffles, chains that are adding a unique look to many of the purses.
· You’ll also notice that handles are becoming a bigger part of the look than they have in the past. There are woven handles, chain handles and bamboo handles as well as quite a few other variations to pick from.
