The days of matching your handbag to your shoes is over. Sure, you still could be matchy-matchy, but it's not required. And so, if you have a big, bright handbag that you love, you can wear it with all kinds of outfits and all kinds of shoes.

Why aren't you wearing this?

  • Cosmic Cuff by Gerard Yusca
  • Cream Ribbon Triple Headband
  • Old Navy Patent Ballet Flat
  • Ben Sherman 'Vixen'
  • Banana Republic Faceted Gem Drop Earrings
That's why we think a unique bag, like this green Big Buddha Brooklyn Bag, $85 at piperlime.com, should be a staple in any fashionista's closet. The funky color and shape makes the bag stand out, so any outfit you pair it with gets a little extra punch.

However, green can act as a bit of a neutral because it pairs so well with a variety of colors, and with a purse of this size, you'll have no problem toting all your daily necessities along with you. Stylishly.
