Bright Colored Purses

Bright colored purses instantly add splash to your outfit. While you'll see this trend as part of spring and summer handbag collections; bold color is surprisingly versatile, so you can sport it easily in autumn and winter.

Yellow leather is a hot look for spring!

The move toward rich, color infused purses has been inspired by a variety of things. The continuing explosion of retro and eighties inspired looks, complete with neon colors, is one influence. The stars, always in the latest styles, are another influence -- celebrities have been spotted carrying bags in bold, delicious colors. Lastly, the changing seasons also influence the move toward color. Fall handbags are often known for warm hues and berry colors and winter bags are often filled with serious chocolate purses, sleek black bags, and dark blues and grays – but when spring and summer arrive you can say hello to color!

While handbag color trends do come and go, you can feel confident with a brightly colored bag in any season if you wear it right. If you love the color, go for it. Some shades are intensified further with the types of material the designer uses, for example, patent leather makes bright color even bolder because it reflects light. If you love the look of color, but want something a bit less intense, consider materials that will subdue the color slightly. Uncoated fabric or embossed, pebbled, or distressed leather bags, for example, offer the rich color but without the same boldness as patent or python.

Some of the hottest shades in candy colored purses include:

• Bright Yellow: No cream or butter shades here! From electric neon shades, to bold, sunny hues, this warm shade is a popular color.

• Hot Pink and Coral: Bold, yet flirty and oh so feminine, hot pinks, corals, and bright fuchsia colors are another popular purse preference.

• Orange: From true orange to rich tangerine, orange is a strong, confidant color, both sophisticated and playful in a purse.

• Candy Apple Red: This sweet handbag color is a delicious way to satisfy your color craving.

• Electric Green: Brighter than the freshly growing green grass, this eye-catching color is a nod to neon that will keep your day bright.

• Cobalt Blue: This highly pigmented color has richness and depth, but plenty of shine.

When bright color comes onto the scene, it can be tempting to pile up bags, accessories, and clothing in all of the yummy colors you crave. While you should certainly go for colors you love, keeping color slightly in check can help keep you looking sleek and stylish.

• A bright colored bag can be the focus of your look. Its beauty really shines when you wear neutrals or subdued colors.

• You can pair complimentary colors with your handbag in your accessories and clothing, but avoid wearing too much of a single color. Wearing a bright buttercup colored purse, shoes, belt, and matching jewelry, for example, can make a woman look like a fashion victim.

• Instead, try pairing different shades of your bright bag color and mixing complimentary neutrals into the look as well.

• Some bright colors, like bright red and cobalt blue, function similarly to neutrals and are versatile enough to be worn with almost anything. If you're worried about your bright bag clashing with your outfit, check the color wheel. Colors across from one another will be complimentary, and shades in the same color family can also work in harmony.

Both the high end designers and more inexpensive discount department store brands have brightly colored bags available during the spring and summer season. If you're looking for a bold hue in a handbag during winter, you'll still find some offerings, but you may have better luck shopping online. Adventurous colors are available in a huge array of materials, from colorful, stylish totes to sleek leather clutches, so you have plenty of options and price points to choose from.

An easy way to shop for the color you crave any time of year is to browse a reputable handbags website, such as eBags, and shop by color.

Don't be afraid to try out a little color this season! A bright colored purse is the perfect way to make a statement, and it couldn't be simpler.
