In the frigid weather of New York City, one way we can dream about spring is by wearing playful accessories. One item that is bound to make an outfit pop is an abstract handbag. An abstract handbag features bold colors, shapes or monograms and we have seen designer brands like Moschino, Fendi and Louis Vuitton showcase it tastefully. This week, I have captured a Fashionista who shows the right way to debut the bold accessory.
The Fashionista wears a shearling biker coat over a simple sweater. The coat has a cool moto shape yet allows her to stay warm. For the bottom, she pairs a pair of chic loose trousers that have stripes on the front and are plain on the back. The fit of the trousers allow extra room for leggings or stockings, and the Fashionista picks lace stockings for a sweet feminine detail. Her burgundy ankle boots give her a confident boost of height. She stays warm with her matching set of navy furry hat and gloves and adds a pair of modern clubmaster sunglasses. To finish off the look, the Fashionista picks the right size of an abstract cross-body bag that is fun and stylish. It grabs the right amount of attention and brightens the muted ensemble.
Don’t wait for warmer weather to bring out spring trends. I am one to stick with cream, grey and black for the winter but adding an abstract handbag totally changes the game.
How To: Find the perfect abstract bag and switch it out with a neutral colored one to add on to your everyday outfit.
