Bye, Bye Bulky Bags

This summer is all about revamping and reviving the popular and iconic styles of the 80’s. One trend that has made its way back to the waists of fashionistas everywhere is the fanny pack, or as it is now known, “the belt purse”.  The days of lugging a heavy shoulder bag are officially over as this elegant look makes shopping hands and hassle free again! Everyone from Emilio Pucci to Louis Vuitton to Hermes to Diane Von Furstenberg is reinventing the once bulky nylon bag into a sleek and elegant accessory. Small, stylish, and chic, the belt purse took over and rocked the runways of almost all of the spring and summer 2011 fashion shows. To get the most out of your belt purse make sure to purchase it in a brown, white, or black leather as it helps creates a more elegant and multi-factitive look.  Now this reinvented fashion is perfect for every occasion and can help enhance a look from good and acceptable to stunning and flawless!  When going out for a night in the town, wear the belt purse either at or above waist level to create a more established and classic silhouette. Or if you want to create a more laid back and casual look, let the purse lay at or below hip level. Say so long and goodbye to the over bearing bags of yesterday and hello to the belt purse of today!
