Wearing a vibrantly colored bag can be intimidating for some, but a clutch should allow you to express your personality and play with new looks without fear! This look can be as classic as a neutral tone if you do it the right way. Your bag doesn’t necessarily have to match your outfit: if you’re carrying a colorful bag, you have endless options when it comes to style. Here are our favorite suggestions.
She wears an all-white outfit
It’s true that black goes with everything, but so does white! Sometimes all black with a bright color is too stark. But white also looks fantastic with vibrant accessories and can go with both.
2. Go beyond bright, solid colors
We love a good colour-blocked accent piece, but what’s even better is a cool bag with a print or pattern to create an eye-catching, conversation-starting piece. You can play contrasting this print with your clothes.
3. It made a basic outfit more exciting.
Sometimes we like to go back to basics, but we just need something that will brighten the look and make it more attractive. Adding a colorful bag can help spice up an outfit and take it from conservative to fashion-forward in no time.
4. Bright red really goes with cool colors.
You might think that cool tones like darker blues and greens would clash with a feisty red hue, but these shades actually pair really well with warmer red tones. Consider pairing dark wash boyfriend jeans with a green overcoat to match your red (or other warm shade) bag.
5. Play with neutral colors in your outfit
No matter how many neutral colors you combine in your outfits, you can still wear a bag that is colorful and doesn’t look too fancy. Only if you use several bright colors will it start to clash with your bag. instead, neutral layers add dimension, so have fun experimenting with this while carrying your bag!
6. Make your outfit a darker version of the shade of your bag.
Are you carrying a bright blue envelope tote bag? Consider pairing it with a dark blue cape or coat. The same goes for blushes and darker pinks, and most pastels. Darker outfits with a similar color story can really add that extra dynamic element.
7. Combine black with yellow
In fact, you won’t look like a bumblebee if you do this! A boho chic yellow bag (remember, yellow comes in many shades that flatter a variety of skin tones) can be paired with a black dress or black jeans with a crop top or turtleneck for fall.
