Spring 2017 Accessory Trend: Extreme Bags

Massive or mini, extreme seems to be the designer message this season. Playing with proportions is fun of course, just remember you aren’t expected to fill up that oversize tote or take the mini one anywhere but out to dinner.

Perhaps the hands-free trend is the most practical of trends, especially for those of us walking around with kids and dogs. The Darlene Fanny pack with Turquoise would be sooo chic with everything for summer. Which one is your favorite?

Happy Shopping!
