THE MINIMALIST APPROACH
A bag is something every girl needs, many of us even have a specific space in the closet that is exclu- sively reserved for these items, this season stay one step ahead of the game by daring to go bare; well… had to carry sort of. Gone are the days when we bags that seemed to hold about 20 diapers in them for us to look even remotely trendy. Though we can still opt for that, we love being given the option to downsize and go minimal with it all; minimal size. minimal accessories on the bag, just clean cut lines and a bit of metal to give it a spin. This trend is con- sistent with the latest technology aesthetic; keep- ing things functional, un-cluttered and modern, sleek and oh so very chic.
There are a few different ways you can use this trend to your advantage. It also, we might add, is about re-thinking the very contents of your bag. Are you absolutely certain that you need to take everything you might possibly need during the day out? Try packing the bare essentials: wallet, phone, keys. If you are keeping your clothing slick and modern, then a minimalist bag is the perfect companion to bring along. If the colors of your outfit are black and white for tops and black or denim for the trousers, then give the ensemble a splash of color by carrying your belongings in a dark red, orange or green bag. If the contrary is what you are going for, with loud prints, florals, stripes or polka-dots, then grab a style such as the one showcased by Miu Miu or M2Malettier in white, black, or silver to go along with the rest of it.
