That Colour Bag, I Like!

Black has been an ideal colour for many but at times, it’s good to own colours that define you. Adding the joy of colours to your style can affect both, your style and mood. While a black bag can be paired with both black and other outfit shades, the ideal way to pair a solid coloured bag is to not match it with your clothes. Let the colour of your handbag be in contrast with your ensemble. If you have tried solid reds and blues, then go for a light shade of orange. And if you’ve only been into beiges and taupes, try something vibrant or maybe start with a red handbag.
