Trend Alert: Mini Bags

January 17, 2014

Say good-bye to your over-sized shoulder bag. This year, petite purses are all the rage. Often worn cross-body, they leave your hands free – something I have come to appreciate even more as a new mom!

But you don’t have to spend $1500 on a Saint Laurent bag at Barney’s. These mini bags are getting to be so popular, they can be found at just about any price point. Isn’t it fun when you don’t have to splurge all of your savings to stay on trend? These are some of my favorites, all under $50.

What do you think of this trend? Love it or hate it?

    I used to carry a large purse but recently switched to a smaller cross body and I LOVE it! It’s so nice to have a lightweight bag for once. 🙂
    Happy Friday!!

    xo Always, Abby
