Thread: Bag Trends: Seeing Purple!

Lilac, plum, eggplant, mauve, orchid. Purple! I am seeing purple everywhere! When paired with monochromatic outfits, a bold splash of purple can really be worn with most colors. Black, Beige, White, Brown, Navy, Yellow, Red. Go simple or go bold! Everyone needs a great splash of color to go to every now and then. Why not make it purple?

Beginning with this spring’s Botega Veneta collection featuring it’s delicious shade of orchid, purple has become a strong color with many major designers. The Bottega Veneta mini-woven shoulder bag is just one of the iconic brand’s styles you can find in orchid for $750. The Woven Leather Tote for $1980 an incredible daytime look that will definitely have you feeling like summer.

The Christian Louboutin Tinzita Shoulder Bag is a striking origami-influenced patent calf leather bag with tassle trim and the signature red lining. If you haven’t looked at these bags before, check them out on your next visit to their boutique or Saks. You will be impressed by the quality and detail. I especially love the little double-stiletto clasps! At $995, this bag will be an instant classic to punch up your evening looks.

Quilted nylon and pebbled leather provided a lot of texture and detail in the Marc Jacobs Rubik Quilted Debbie Mini Bag for $495. Who doesn’t like this little gem? It’s adorable and classic!

Tory Burch Clayton Leather Tote with it’s crakled leather finish is a classic work essential for $395. This bag is definitely for the woman with a sense of style who isn’t afraid to stand out at the office!

Anya Hindmarch’s handbags offer tailored sophistication with a bit of cuteness in her simple bow logos. Her purple offering at just $295 is an inexpensive option to get that luscious “pop” of violet to go with any outfit!

There are so many great options out there.

DELICIOUS! I already went thought the deep purple trend, but now I'm craving the light spring Bottega Veneta orchid purple. It's just too pretty!

I purple!

All of the bags above look fab! My favorite would be the Bottega Veneta followed by MJ!

I like the Tory Burch tote best out of those but the purple bag I am obsessing over right now is the Gustto Folina!

I LOVE the BV tote! It'a gorgeous!

They are all beautiful!

I love purple bags! But none of these styles are calling to me.

My favorite purple-licious purses..

Emilio Pucci Fringed suede shoulder bag - I've said nay to fringe in the past, but I think it looks kinda cute on this little purple. Day-to-evening I'm especially loving the white dress with gold jewelry look.

available here at net-a-porter for $1705


Michael Kors Astor Braided Calfskin Satchel - this bag has been a favorite of mine for a long time. I love the braided detailing - it's so precious!

available here at Bloomingdales for $495


Halston Heritage Slouchy ultrasuede Sac Bag - so hobo chic, I love it! And the price is so much more appealing than the similar (imo) Halston bags.

available here at net-a-porter for $295


Emilio Pucci Suede shoulder bag - My first thought: Lanvin (or Chanel-ish) is that you? No, this bag is infact by Pucci! Still I think it's a rather cute purse

available here at net-a-porter for $1595


MCM Pop Python-Embossed Calfskin Clutch - it's like a pink-ish-purple. The color listed on the website is "lavender". I love the look of this clutch-to-shoulderbag. So pretty!

Find it here at Bloomingdales for $495

OOH! I love seeing all of the others! That pucci chain bag is delicious and I love the gustto for everyday!

Love them all! Here's a share of the purple bags in my collection!

^ Love that Raisin Balenciaga Viva!!!

The Gustto Folina also comes in a Spring Lilac.



*I am still obsessing over the darker Grape Folina!!

^^^Love that bag!
