Purple handbags are a hot trend for the upcoming spring season and there are some lovely ones being released right now.
You can go for sleek and modern or frilled and feminine – there’s a purple purse out there for almost everyone…
Rebecca Minkoff’s mini leather cross-body bag comes with a detachable cross-body strap as well as two standard handles. It’s got an outside zipper pocket, an inside zipper and two open pockets
as well as metal feet to protect the bottom.
Go for something ruffled and feminine with Lockheart’s “Iris” tote with double shoulder handles, 10″ drop and a magnetic closure. It’s got two front vertical slit pockets on the outside with five inside pockets, one zipper pocket. Microfiber signature striped jacquard lining, 15″W X 12″H X 7″D.
This microfiber tote from Carlos Falchi has a snakeskin-look embossed finish and comes with a matching cosmetic pouch. Double shoulder straps, 11″ drop with floral lining in a generous 17½”W X 15½”H X 5¾”D size.

Do you love the colour purple? As you may know, purple is traditionally associated with royalty, power, and wealth. This may be why it’s such a popular colour! Fortunately for those of you who love the shade, purple is the ‘it’ shade to have and be seen in. And if you were born in February, a purple coloured gemstone, an amethyst, is your birthstone.
I rounded up 6 purple coloured items that would make great gift ideas for yourself and others.
