As new fashion and beauty trends hit the sidewalks this spring, you won’t want to skip one important detail: your handbag. This key accessory can make or break your trend-inspired look. Even pairing a fashionable handbag with basic, never-go-out-of-style apparel can make your entire look more current. Shop for your favorite handbag from these latest trends for spring 2012.
The Hottest Colors
Pastels are in this spring and, if you don’t have the right skin tone to pull off these soft hues, a pastel handbag could be a great way to capture the season’s hottest colors in your look. Pick out a green, blue, pink, yellow, or purple pastel colored purse of any size or style to add this trend to your wardrobe.
According to Pantone, known for predicting the season’s hottest colors, a shade called Tangerine Tango will be taking over handbag designs for spring 2012. Look for vibrant orange hues to add a kick of fashionable color to your look. And although it’s a daring and bold color, Tangerine Tango goes with just about every look for spring, from professional to casual to evening.
The Hottest Shapes
Sometimes, the shape of your handbag can make it more trendy and exciting to carry. Glamour magazine recently reported on some of the most unique shapes we’ll be seeing for spring 2012. Try out an envelope clutch for evening wear, a camera bag design for everyday, or a schoolgirl satchel bag for your work-day accessorizing.
Classic styles of totes, sleek train-case bags, and chain strap purses will also be back with a vengeance for the spring. If you’ve got these shapes in your closet already, it’s time to dig them out!
The Hottest Details
Especially in the world of handbags, detailing is everything. When shopping for spring 2012 trends in handbags, look for wide straps, woven designs, jewel-encrusted leather, raffia accents, and chain-link straps. Think big, broad, and boxy for this spring’s hottest looks in totes, clutches, purses, and more.
Whether you choose large or small, basic or fancy, bright or pastel, the spring 2012 season will bring some exciting styles to handbags. Choose the styles that best work with your wardrobe for a quick and easy way to update your look and stay current with the latest trends.
