ARM CANDY - HANDBAG TRENDS TO MAKE YOU SAY OOOH!

It’s often the perfect outfit finisher, and we sometimes cater our outfits around it - that’s right the all important handbag!

There is one handbag for every occasion, big, small, tiny, huge, seriously oversized, bright, black, tribal, fringed, tote, patent, the list goes on! I know I myself have an extensive collection, isn’t it funny how we always seem to say “I need a new bag” when really we have plenty to be going on with, but hey where’s the shopping fun in that?!

There are some gorgeous in-trend handbags to be sporting this season as Louis Vuitton showed off at Paris Fashion Week; in Autumn/Winter 2009 collection every model was seen holding a bag, or a classic clutch. Retail fashion has also followed suit with small handled bags to carry all our must-have handbag essentials in.

It still seems the clutch bag is everywhere, especially as this is such a key item for any outfit day or night. Rock a clutch with a pair of skinnies and killer heels, or a gorgeous evening or day dress and you’ve got it in one! When it comes to the clutch bags it’s either simple and sophisticated, or decorative, cute and cool.

Check out our collection of small bags to get the look nailed: Patent Apple Green Clutch Bag with Bow Design £12.00, Beige Quilted Bow Bag with Removable Straps £12.00, Cream Quilted Handbag with Gold Chain Detail £12.00, Pink Multi-Coloured Holdall with Detachable Shoulder Strap, Brown Leather Effect Handbag with Silver Metal Detailing, Cream Leather Effect Handbag with Silver Metal Detailing.
