Monogrammed
handbags
Monogrammed
bags and purses never really go out of style, and
this season we’ll see a huge range of colors, shapes
sizes and styles.
A
strong upcoming trend is leather sling hipster
handbags with elegantly embossed initials or a
name. Soft leather is a beautiful fabric for handbags
because it’s durable, always very stylish, and
it goes with everything. Sling handbags are very
comfortable to carry, and perfect either for business
or as a casual accessory.
Monogrammed
tote bags
Tote
bags are the most casual fashion accessory of all,
and perfect for the beach, for picnics, or for
a little shopping. Monogrammed tote bags are also
great for kids to carry their school books or gym
clothes, and having their initials or name printed
on the bag means they won’t lose it.
Soft
cotton canvas is the classic fabric for tote bags,
and we’ll see an abundance of canvas tote bags
this season.
The
big trend for monogrammed tote bags will be big
initials, printed across the whole side panel of
the bag in big, bold colors. A single first initial
of your first name as a monogram has a casual,
whimsical kind of feel.
Dog
purses
Everyone
loves dogs, which is why the fashion for handbags,
tote bags and purses decorated with a full panel
photo of a gorgeous dachshund, poodle, beagle,
yorkie or dalmatian just keeps getting stronger
and stronger every year. Dog purses are a great
gift idea for anyone whose best friend is their
beloved hound.
Custom-made
dog purses are also becoming more and more popular.
You can have your own photograph of your dog printed
onto a handbag, so your bag, like your dog, will
be truly one of a kind.
Photo
purses
Photo
purses are simply ultra-cool, and the most individual
and personal of fashion statements. You can have
your own photo of anything you like printed onto
a purse or handbag, like a special person in your
life, your cat, dog or bird, or even your car.
A
very trendy idea is to use a romantic old photograph
of a relative as a model for your photo purse,
so you can cherish their memory wherever you go.
Initial
purses
Initial
purses are a fashion accessory with a personal
touch, and they make wonderful gifts. You can have
just about any kind of purse printed, embroidered
or embossed with a single initial or set of two
or three initials in a wide variety of styles.
As
for handbags, leather will be a big trend in the
upcoming season for purses. We’ll see lots of small
leather purses with a comfortable sling shoulder
strap, elegantly embossed with two or three initials.
Cigar
box purses
Cigar
box purses are another strong trend for the coming
year. They’re literally made from a wooden cigar
box, fitted with a clasp and a handle, and embossed
with an artistic or photographic image.
The
most fashionable cigar box purses are decorated
with advertising images from the glamorous 1920’s
and 30’s. European advertising artwork from that
period has a particularly elegant and alluring
style, so we’ll be seeing a lot of Cinzano, Cognac
and French Perfume labels on cigar box purses.
Hobo
purses
Hobo purses can be cool and casual for shopping, or groovy and glamorous to
go with evening wear.
Casual
style hobo purses come in suede or leather, and
soft colors like pastel pinks, beige, cream and
white are very much in vogue.
A
new look for hobo purses which is on the way in
is a small purse in a gold or silver mesh fabric,
or even ultra-glamorous sequins and rhinestones.
These purses are a new take on the traditional
evening purse, and make an eye-catching alternative.
Clutch
handbags
Clutch
purses and handbags have an elegant, streamlined
look, but they’re the perfect size to carry all
those little necessities.
The
big look for clutch purses and clutch handbags
in the coming year will be all glamour. Shiny metallic
gold, silver, bronze and platinum shades will be
the strong colors of the season, in soft suede
leather.
