Colorblocking is such a big trend. You can colorblock your clothing. Shoes and handbags are colorblocked as well. But what about colorblocking the inside of your handbag? Maybe you are a person with a bold bag already or perhaps you have a basic black bag as your go-to. With the jumble of things we put in our bag on a day to day basis, it makes sense to clean it out, put in beautifully colored pouches and make it easy to organize too! Beauty and brains collide inside of your bag!
There’s no real system to it. Choose pouches that have colors you love and pretty soon, it will look like the inside of a Skittles bag! The other amazing thing about pouches is that it makes it so easy to change bags and not forget something in the previous bag. Here are some of my favorites of the moment!
The Tory Burch Saffiano Pebble Pouch with admittedly NOT a pouch. But it is a great zippered case that will keep you organized and I am absolutely in love with the cobalt and orange colors. For $95, this little case will add a lot of pop to the inside of your bag!

The season for fur is just about gone, but animal prints in general will never go out of style. Animal prints are hot! There is just no other word to describe them. Animal prints are fun and funky, great for adding some flair to your everyday look. But here’s something you don’t see very often, mix and match animal print! Introducing the Christian Louboutin Carrie Animal Print Bag!
I would say for the past three years or so, everything I’ve purchased or worn has been black and white. To me, those two colors are very classy together however it’s made my wardrobe kind of bland. I’m not gothic by any means but I do admit I need some color in my life! Even most of my handbags are black but I’m so ready for something colorful and pretty to add to my collection. When I saw the Botkier “Valentina” Satchel my mouth literally dropped! At last, something that was made in a beautiful color that I actually wanted!
It’s always fun to have those different and unique bags in your handbag collection. You may not use them much but they sure come in handy for the right outfit, party or event. The Tulu “Katie” Kisslock Clutch is definitely one of those bags. At first glance, I had thought it was by Betsey Johnson. With the bow and the colors, it screamed Betsey Johnson to me so it was nice to see another designers name in the description.
As I’ve mentioned before, I’m a die hard Michael Kors fan and lately he’s been on fire. Every time I go in a department store or take a gander in a Michael Kors store, there is always at least one thing that I want. Michael Kors designs exude class, sophistication and a whole lot of style.
I’m currently in love with the Michael Kors “Skorpios” Drawstring Bag. Usually I would never be into this type of bag. I like simplicity when it comes to a handbag, the less on a bag the better but there is something about the “Skorpios”. The white leather blends in really well with the brown handles and goldtone hardware. It was also be a great bag for the upcoming Spring and Summer seasons. This satchel would be a really cute accessory for a tropical vacation or perhaps even a cruise.
Clematis can be seen growing all over the place around here. It is a favorite for adding a little color around a mailbox or along a wooden fence. This vine can grow pretty big though, I once saw someone who had it growing up an antennae tower in their backyard. There were pretty purple flowers blooming 20 feet above the ground! It is certainly an attractive plant. What I find curious is that it isn’t often the subject of floral printed handbags. That is why the Christopher Kane Clematis Clutch is so special!
Variation is always good and it seems like the House of Burberry believes so too. Just check out the talent portrayed on this shoulder bag. I’m stunned at the unexpected tote bag the British brand presented this season; meet the Printed Cotton Canvas & Leather bag. With a name like Printed Cotton Canvas, I was expecting something as little less striking with not so much detailing. This is definitely a diverse change from the classic plaid designs that House is best known for. This bohemian gem to the Burberry family arrives exotic, mysterious and in disguise. The encircling patterns perform an unusual design throughout a sturdy cotton canvas body and the spice colored leather trim stands out finely against this dark artistic piece. With its warm and earthy hues, I can see this tote being carried throughout spring/summer evenings and on a daily basis during the fall/winter seasons.
