Metallic handbags for fall 2014

Metallic handbags have been a classic mainstay in the world of handbags over the past several years. Despite their place as a modern classic, metallic handbags have exploded for fall 2014; and are proving to be one of the most important handbag trends of the seasons.

Spotted on the runways in New York, Paris, Milan and London, metallic handbags are taking the streets by storm. Every metallic hue has been seen including silver, pewter, gold and metallic versions of every color on the rainbow. Metallic hues are being spotted on mini, small, medium and large handbags; although medium is usually the largest handbag one would want to be metallic; for good taste purposes 😉

The metallic handbag is a fresh way to wear a neutral purse this fall season. Metallic hues blend well with almost any color palette and can be worn from day to day. Smaller metallic bags can easily transition into evening and can instantly dress up a pair of jeans.

There is also a trend towards simple, understated handbags. While metallic bags are not understated due to their shiny and eye-catching appearance, the style of the handbag this fall season is in theme with the trend towards simplicity. When shopping for a metallic handbag, look for clean lines, not a lot of hardware and simplicity.

I found a few metallic handbags around the web which fit perfectly into fall 2014’s metallic handbag trend and assembled them into the shopping widget below. For vegan styles, please visit JillMilan.com.

Metallics for fall 2013

Metallic hues have been on trend for the past few years and are showing no signs of slowing down for the fall 2013 season. Designers continued to show metallic accents and accessories for fall/winter 2013/2014 when they sent models down the runways in New York, Paris, Milan and London. Store buyers are continuing to love the trend and have stocked store shelves for fall with the sparkling touch.

Metallics are everywhere for fall 2013. In addition to solid colored pieces, metallics are part of the ongoing color blocking trend. They are being spotted together with bright colors and autumn hues. Metallics are also being paired with fall’s hot animal print trend as part of the blocked print trend.

Every shade of metallic is hot for fall 2013. You have your pick from bright silver, gold, pewter, copper, brass and more. There is a metallic hue for everyone and every ensemble this fall 2013 season. Love that! If you have previously invested in metallic during past seasons, you are set for the fall 2013 season! If not, do not be afraid to purchase a few metallic items this season. The trend is projected to continue into 2014.

The easiest way to wear the metallic trend is through shoes and handbags. Of course, if you are bold, look for a metallic motorcycle jacket or pair of jeans. While a metallic dress is on trend, it is considered overdone. When it comes to apparel, look for separates and incorporate one metallic item into your ensemble.
