The below fashion bloggers know there are numerous ways to match your bag with your outfit. Always remember that your choice of handbag reflects your lifestyle and personality.
1. Pretty Picnic Basket
Meet Ashlyn of Triple Thread, whose fashion blog is unfortunately no longer available online. Sure, her outfit looks pretty simple, but the fish print shirt and that pretty picnic basket made a whole lot of difference.
In fact, this look is all about the bag. Seriously, we can’t take our eyes off it. We want it!

A good bag makes an outfit. For a case in point, look at this boho-chic look put together by the stylish blogger Gabriela of Kolorowa Dusza. Her buttery brown ultra-detailed backpack really pulled the whole look together, yes?

11. Stressed But Well Dressed Clutch
Palm tree and floral prints can look sophisticated, too. Just make sure you pick structured pieces with clean silhouettes.

Finish the attire with an equally structured handbag in a classic hue or in a color that complements your getup. Even better, pick one with a statement, like the dress from Zara worn by Marsha Campbell of Style of a London Tall Girl.

12. Blue It Bag
Mid-thigh denim cutoffs can give your outfit a boyish spin, but make sure you polish it up with stunning high heels and an “it” bag. Style cue from Sasa Zoe of Shall We Sasa and add a dash of extra by wrapping a printed shirt around your waist.

Black-and-white outfits don’t have to look boring. Keep things sexy by showing bits of skin. Like Anna Gotsyk of Dream. Love. Shop., wear a crop top and mix the piece with a short skater skirt.
Spice things up with high heels and a simple but glam chain-detailed tote. Easy peasy, right?

16. Trendy Fringe Bag
Can you rock fringes, ruffles, and floral print in one go?

We say, why not?! Keep things a little masculine, though. Go with floral-print pants and a ruffled top that comes in a simple silhouette. Finish with a fringed bag, and voila! You’re all set.
We’re taking this advice from the filmmaker, graphic designer, and blogger Veronica Foregger. Her blog, Fancy to Go, is unfortunately no longer available online.
