Spring/Summer Bags

Time to ditch the dark brown and black bags and add some spring/summer style to your purse collection. Lighter colored clothing calls for lighter colored bags. Think true white, cream, beige/khaki and even light grey and silver.

If you are on a budget, and who isn't, choose one versatile bag that can go from day to night. Also, don't buy a bag that is too trendy. After all, you will want to keep it for next year and the year after. If you really want a trendy studded bag, do not spend a lot of money on it. Splurge on timeless pieces, not trendy ones.

If you have the dough, there are some great casual totes. Fendi's straw and canvas tote, available on Bluefly, is perfect for a day of shopping. Yves St. Laurent also has several great totes for spring/summer. For evening, clutches are simple and sexy; Fendi has an irresistible silver leather one that will carry you through fall.

A light colored bag will be your go-to bag for months to come, so choose wisely! Remember, a good quality, timeless bag will last years and you will enjoy carrying it every time.
