LaureNicole Talks PURSE, BAGS, AND POCKET BOOKS!

Ok... okay.. I've been gone for awhile but I'M BACK and in FULL AFFECT..

Let's talk accessories... one of my favorite accessories....PURSE, BAGS, AND POCKET BOOKS!

Yes! And for those of you ladies who don't carry purse or even a clutch.. SHAME ON YOU, seriously!!

Now for some of us it can be a JOY and for others unfortunately it can be a burden. BUT putting the right bag or purse with today's look can really pull together an outfit.

So yes, that means changing and switching purses with each ensemble. A simple black bag simply won't do! Purses and bags come in soo many different styles now, from the hideous "hello kitty purses" (inside joke) to oversize clutches and bags.

What most unreasonable people would call overnight bags. So here are a few things to keep in mind smaller bags are generally good for formal events and black tie affairs.

Here's the thing for these formal events don't be afraid to go over the top with them. In fact, don't be afraid to go over the top with any bag at any time!!

ok ..Ok don't get carried away, colors are your friends and you should definitely own an array of colorful bags but do keep in mind these big and beautiful bags work better with casual ensembles.

If you decide to wear all black or any predominantly solid color let your bag be a contrasting color.
Example, all black ANY color bag, all red try a blue, all pink try purple... YOU GET THE POINT!
One last thing, your purse does not have to match your shoes.. That's an old rule and quite frankly your bag can contrast your ensemble.

So run out and get you a fabulous fun oversize spacious bag or clutch!! Here are GREAT examples:
