Currently Craving: Mini Bags

Women love most things big except when it comes to fashion, so I’ve heard. When fashion is concerned, size is in most cases determined by trends. Oversized VS Skinny jeans, Maxi VS Mini Skirts, Crop Tops/ Bralets VS Tunics and so on. Not too long ago the carry-all, oversized tote bag was the IT bag to have. Think Celine totes. Now with the deflation of the economy, the size of our accessories just keep getting smaller. No one really wants a murderous bag. It’s all about miniature fashionable bags. 

Mini bags are the IT item for a few good reasons:

-It’s an easy way to make an outfit instantly seem more youthful.

-You wear a small cross-body bag and it feels fuss-free.

-It’s more flattering against clothing as it doesn’t compete with the outfit to be seen and seems to work with the new, elongated proportions.

*Pictured above is Helena of Brooklyn Blonde. She simply does not wear a bad outfit. Slaylena!
