Little known fashion fact: no matter what you’re wearing, a gorgeous statement bag has the power to instantly transform your look. Incorporating the right bag into your outfit can elevate even the most basic of ensembles and take any look straight to the next level. While we love a show-stopping heel or a notice-me earring, spring 2016’s hottest ‘it’ bags make a strong case for why your next splurge should be a statement bag.
Laundry day and nothing to wear? No problem, grab one of these beauties and no one will give your yoga pants a second glance.
