 {See by Chloe}

 Crossbody bags are totally trendy for Spring 2011! Finally a trend that is practical too! I have always loved cross body bags. They make life a heck of a lot easier for those of us who like to have our hands free when we are doing things like SHOPPING! Not that I have been doing a lot of that lately. None of the fun kind anyway. The only kind of heavy duty shopping I have been doing has been at the grocery store. A girl can dream though, right? Well these are the crossbody bags that I am dreaming about:

I am also seeing a huge trend in neutral handle bags. I love these babies.

This neutral bag is really cute and a little more affordable than the others. It sort of reminds me of a Valentino bag, hence the bow.

Metallic bags are also en vogue at the moment. Then again........when are they not. It seems like you can never go wrong with a bit of sparkle and shine!

BRIGHTS are also fun to carry this spring! They can be great for those ladies who are a little timid to actually wear bright colors. These brights look fabulous on your shoulder when you are wearing neutral colors.
