Latest Fashion Trends in Unique Handbags and Purses
If you're looking for something a little different, there are
literally thousands of beautifully crafted unique handbags and
purses available for purchase online. If you're tired of the
mass-produced offerings you tend to find at the mall, the online
handbag, purse and fashion accessory market is an exciting and
exotic new world.
The variety of unique handbag and purse designs keeps getting
bigger, better and more innovative all the time, but as with
every kind of fashion accessory, interesting trends emerge with
every new season. Here is a brief rundown of what's coming in
unique purses and handbags in 2006.
Cloth Purses
Cloth purses are very casual fashion items, so colorful fabrics
and whimsical patterns are the strongest trend. If you love bold
colors and striking contrasts you'll have a great time shopping
for cloth purses this season.
A cloth purse is mostly a spring/summer fashion accessory, so
expect to see warm colors, and light breezy cotton or nylon
fabrics. Fresh, summery patterned fabrics with flowers, fruits
and ladybugs are always popular.
Also very fashionable is the clever and practical reversible
cloth purse. You can literally turn the purse inside out to
reveal the alternative fabric pattern, so you have two purses in
one.
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.
