Dear Confashion: Bags For Fall


eshda3wa: Big bag, small bag, shiny bags... so many bags! Whats in for fall ?


A:As I mentioned previously on here, I think "it" bags are over-rated. Big or small, go with whatever you feel it reflects your personal style. Having said that, this season I'm thinking big, obnoxious, in-your-face kind of bags (and that's my personal style for this season). This fall, nothing seems over-the-top. Patent, patent, patent is the way to go. Choose a patent leather bag in gem colors as it would instantly compliment fall's black and grey colored clothes. This season, Chloe and Bottega Venetta presented beautiful patent leather bags.

If you're not into bold colors, pick a patent leather bag in black or grey but make sure that the bag has some hardware details like studs, chains, or zippers to give it that edgy rock-chic look. Brands which offer such handbags this season includes: Chanel, YSL, Stella McCartney, and Burberry.

Another alternative is to go for over-sized clutches that will take you from day to night. My fave this season are Fendi colored clutch, Jimmy Choo patent and python clutches, and Prada patent clutch.

Miu Miu Pays Tribute to the Middle East

Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in  Miu Miu   Boutiques throughout our region.
