Mini Me

I tend to be someone who thinks the middle path is the best path to take in life. In other words, nothing should be done in extremes and moderation is best. When it comes to fashion, however, I sometimes have trouble sticking to this maxim. Not too long ago, gigantic handbags were all the rage. I tried to resist this trend as best I could, sticking as I said before, to the middle path and opting for the practicality of medium-sized bags. Also, I'm not exactly a pack mule when it comes to what I carry around with me, so why would I need the space? This year, mini or micro bags are all the rage. I tried to resist this trend, but let's face it, these teeny tiny bags are just too adorable with their diminutive stature! I just couldn't say no.

As I said before, I don't carry all that much around with me when I go out, so a little bag isn't too inconvenient. As long as I have room for my phone, my wallet, and maybe a tube of lipstick, I'm happy. This bag I am wearing today from Sophie Hulme should fit all of the above, as long as your wallet and phone aren't oversized.

One of the things I love most about the adorable mini size of these micro bags is that designers have decided to make them in a delectable array of colors. The Sophie Hulme bag I am wearing is a brilliant fuchsia color, which suits my love of color perfectly. Below I've selected some mini bags in fun colors that are perfect for the Fall/Winter months.
