| First off I have to apoligize, I am so late at telling all of you about my trip to Las Vegas! I want to share all the trends that I saw so that you can be on the look out for them. |

|
Purple: Purple is going to be huge!! I know that it’s already coming up for fall but it looks like it will stick around for next Spring as well. This is great news! We are always looking for carryover trends; you can buy a great bag for this fall and still be able to wear it into next Spring. Here are a few of my picks: |
|
Hobo International Estelle |
Rebecca Minkoff Market Tote |
Elaine Turner Suzanna Work Tote |
 |
|
 |
| Shopping Take Away:Be on the look out for lots of color! What a great way to spice up your black outfit; carry a purple, green or blue handbag! |
| |
|
Oversized Bags:
This has been a trend for quite awhile now and it’s definately not going away any time soon! The bags are getting bigger and bigger.Here are a few of my favorite big bags. |
|
Kenneth Cole NY Quilty as Sin Tote |
Babee D Ocean Drive |
Gustto Occhiali Collection Brescia Bag |
 |
 |
 |
| Shopping Take Away: Make sure that you try on the handbag before you are buying it. Some leathers can be very heavy and you do not want to be carrying around 10 pounds of weight on one shoulder. Here is another area where you can save money if you need to. Look at these styles in other materials to cut a few dollars. |

|
Suede:
I saw a lot of Suede at the shows! Two tone suede, suede mixed with patent leather, lots of combinations! |
|
M Missoni Color Block Suede Tote |
Donald J Pliner Fold Over Shoulder Clutch |
Francesco Biasia Nina Collection Large Shoulder Bag |
 |
 |
 |
| Shopping Take Away: When you wear a suede bag, be mindful of what fabrics you are wearing. You don’t want to take away from the suede texture by wearing a thick corduroy blazer. Make the handbag stand out! |

That is all for now! I’ll be back with more soon |
