Colorful satchels for spring

 in General Fashion / Handbags / Trends  tagged satchels / spring 2012 / summer 2012 by

The spring 2012 runways in New York, Milan, Paris and London gave the fashion world two very distinct handbag styles for the warm weather season; the daytime clutch and classic satchel. The classic satchel was shown on the runway mainly with two top handles, although the single top handle satchel is just as timeless as the double. This iconic and classic handbag style has been at the forefront of fashion for the past several seasons, and for spring 2012, as well as fall 2012, the timeless silhouette is as hot as ever.

Since satchels are timeless, many Fashionistas happen to own at least one of this iconic handbag style. Since spring 2012 is all about color, the hottest way to wear a satchel this season is in a vibrant spring hue! There is no need to worry about the shelf life of a colorful satchel. Although black is back for fall 2012, designers are still showing vivid colors, and spring 2013 is forecast to be colorful too.

We assembled a few colorful and fabulous satchels from the current spring 2012 season which can easily take you through spring 2013 in the Polyvore set below. Hope you love it!

The cap toed shoe has been spotted sparingly this spring 2012 season, but for fall 2012, the style will be moving into the forefront of foot fashion. Designers such as Christian Louboutin, Stuart Weisman and Roberto Cavalli (Just Cavalli line) have already shown the cap toe shoe for spring 2012 and fall 2012. This retro style, which is reminiscent of the early to mid-1900’s, is adding a fresh take to the pump and the flat this year.

Cap toed shoes are being shown in colors, neutrals and metallic’s for the spring and fall seasons; showing the style is offering shoe fans many options for 2012. 

We found a few fabulous styles of cap toed pumps from the current spring collections which also reflect fall 2012’s color palette and assembled them into the Polyvore set below. Happy shopping and stay fabulous
