Spring has sprung and what better way to clear out your closet then to part with the old and say hello to the new by investing in a great new bag! Staying chic is easy and can be frugal when you know how to accessorize your already fabulous wardrobe – all it takes is a fab purse to store it all in! If you are anything like me, I’d much rather spend on a piece I can carry everyday then a shirt or pair of pants that can only be worn a handful of times before they go out of style. What’s better is when that one piece is CHEAP!! Then, cha-ching! Score!
If you are wondering how to keep chic – think BAG!! After all, it’s all about accessorizing, right?
Here are Springs must-haves without breaking the bank! Happy Shopping!
Naturally Nude!
What better way to break up an all black outfit or super pretty maxi then with a pretty nude coloured sidekick. This Spring, think naked like this (top left) light taupe shoulder bag from H &M! Best part is, it’s only $15 CAN!! Now that’s a ‘bare naked’ bargain!
I am also absolutely obsessed with this Flower Basket Shoulder bag by PINKSTIX. The best part is, aside from being fashionable it is made from vegan leather, so you can look cute and be guilt free! Plus, for only $65, it is quite the steal.

Animals and Florals!
This Spring it’s all about the splurge – fashion splurge that is! Textures, and animal melody make this (bottom left) bag a showpiece that is sure to stop anyone in their tracks. Go for the gold and rock the heck out of it with this Beaded Birds Crossbody by Zara. $79.99 CAN.
Picnic To Beach!
Transition easily from Spring to Summer with a straw bag this season. Take this Camden bag (top right) from Naturalizer anywhere for any type of sunshine! Bonus, the straw texture makes it super functional and adds dimension to any outfit. $60 CAN.
I am also totally loving this Soft Weave convertible clutch/crossbody by PINKSTIX. The fabric totally screams beach but can easily be transitioned to a night out afterwards.
Show Off That Fanny!
Do you remember when fanny packs were all the rage? Well…they’re baaaackkk! Only, the newer packs offer so much more style and structure – wear one in any colour to make a statement this Spring! This AKI Fuschia Fanny Pack (bottom right) by Nat and Matt can be found at Little Burgandy. $44.98 CAN. Bring back the 90’s one bag at a time!
Go Hands Free
Just like the fanny pack, going hands free with backpack purses is all the rage. Be bold and find a fun bag with a punch of colour. I’m obsessed with this bright poppy red Floral Backpack from PINKSTIX. It screams Spring and is the perfect pop to any outfit. For only $65 and vegan leather, how can you go wrong?
What bag trends will you be rocking this season?
