You can have a big outfit, but without the right bag, it may have the impression that something is missing. Accessories should never be limited to a simple reflection. These are what can ensure that an outfit really feels stylish versus just thrown. A good handbag does a lot: it brings your look together and holds all your essential elements (like your lip shiny, your other lip shiny and your lip pencil). And while the bags of the bags come and go, one thing you can control is the color palette of your grant range.
So which should you keep in your closet?
From Cherry Red to Barbie Pink, the options to choose are endless. But we are here to help. To start, celebrity stylist Jenny Rodriguez says you can’t go wrong with neutrals. “You will never wonder if they go with an outfit, and you can wear these colors for daily work, get out of brunch or make an appointment,” she said. Personal stylist Narges Motamedi contributes, adding that metalics also work as neutrals.

When worn correctly, red is practically neutral, and this applies to any daring color. The burgundy shade here completes this outfit, but the same goes for a cherry red always so empty. The shade of the heart stands out against an outfit in earth tones, but is also perfectly associated with the leopard print. “The best colors that go with red are pink, because they are in the same family of colors; green, because they are opposed on the chromatic wheel and navy blue for a nautical moment,” explains Motamedi.

This pastel purple is a unique handbag color that will always be a good match. The lilac offers a soothing contrast with colors such as emerald green, yellow of custard, poppy red and a myriad of other shades. The possibilities are endless. However, Motamedi offers a warning. “Lilac tends to be washed when it is against darker colors, so it works better with similar pastels.”

Exchange your classic black clutch for a rich chocolate brown, explains Rodriguez. The mocha color plays well with tones of jewelry like the magenta as well as softer shades such as baby blue and pink, and even neutral shades like white. Regarding the colors to avoid? Green and brown tend to evoke the sea Scooby-doo Vibrations and brown and orange can be too close to comfort, adds the stylist.

If you ask Motamedi, handbags were made to come in pink. The pink shade can animate outfits composed of soft gray and camel or add a little romance to the coral, yellow and indigo pigments. For what is worth, pink and green are also a classic combination of colors. “Like lilac, you should combine a light pink handbag with lighter colors. If your bag is classic pink, however, you are good to opt for black, brown or even navy,” explains Motamedi.

“I love a metal bag, especially in money,” explains Motamedi. “It is probably the only bag that really goes with everything, whatever color, texture or structure.” Even better, a reflective handbag can be used as a mirror. Although we no longer live in disco The era, silver and chrome prove that the metallic deserves their place in the present.

The popular green shade is loved for a reason: it breathes life in creamy whites and commercial blues while mixing perfectly with fuchsia, purple and even Blood Orange. In addition, you can always associate it with other shades of green for a monochromatic monochromatic look.

The ocean shade offers a brilliant color punch, instantly transforming a gray adjustment into a Watch New York-The dignified. Let nature be your guide and associate your bag tinted with sky with a range of dynamic shades from lavender to terracotta. “A light blue bag is perfect for tweed looks inspired by Preppier and Chanel,” explains Motamedi. “And you can get a navy blue bag to channel your villain from the interior business.”
