Soft clutches for fall 2013

PhotoSaint Laurant clutch for fall 2013.
One of the big handbag trends from the fall/winter 2013/2014 runways in New York, Paris, Milan and London was the soft clutch. Over the past few years clutches have moved themselves from an evening staple to a daytime must-have. Clutches have taken on many different forms from structured envelopes to studded weapons to work-ready briefs. For fall 2013 clutches have taken a new turn; they are soft.

Soft and slouchy clutches are hot for fall 2013. This luxurious and effortless style has made it from the runways to store shelves; which means this trend will find itself on the street quicker than you can say “buy it!”

Every season daytime and evening clutches show themselves in different sizes. For fall 2013, soft clutches are small and medium in size. Smaller sizes are being shown in dressy, evening appropriate fabrications while medium clutches are in thicker, casual daytime fabrics.

Soft clutches for fall 2013 are being shown in autumn hues such as burgundy, dark purple, grey, charcoal, black, chocolate brown, pale beige, green and navy. Although there are many other colors in fall 2013’s color palette, these are the main hues being shown on soft clutches. The traditional autumn shades of fall 2013 and classic neutral tones are making this season a little bit darker and luxurious than what we have seen over the past few years. Move over brights, autumn is back!

Oceanic hues and a Hayden Hartnett handbag

Cobalt blue. It is a favorite hue of designers year after year, and for 2013 is appears to be more important than ever. While this vibrant hue was spotted all over the spring/summer 2013 runways, cobalt blue dominated the recent resort 2014 runways; proving this is the ultimate color to invest in right now.

Since cobalt blue is important this year, and into next year, it is a great color to have in your wardrobe. Cobalt blue not only offers a pop of color to neutral ensembles; the color is almost neutral itself, and blends well with almost any color group. This make it the perfect hue for a handbag since we all need a purse we can wear everyday which blends well with the majority of our wardrobes.

Beach bags for summer 2013

Summer is upon us! This means it is time to find the perfect beach tote which will work not only at the beach, but will look fabulous and “hot-off-the-runway” poolside too!
Although bright colors are hot right now, there is a slight trend towards calmer hues and neutral tones. Perhaps Fashionistas on the street are becoming tired of all the bright eye candy?
For the summer of 2013, look for beach totes with stripes and neutral colors. Designers are showing shades of tan, black and white spruced up with navy, blue, red, yellow and orange touches. Of course, colors are hot this season, so bright pink, cobalt and green beach bags work too!
I found a few fabulous beach totes around the web which will cart everything a fashion-savvy girl needs to the beach, the pool or for a weekend getaway. All of these fabulous tote bags are assembled into the shopping widget below. Hope you love them! Happy shopping, and stay fabulous
