BAG RIDDLES

Riddle : My sides point to east and west , and when you hold me , I am close to your chest . I am old but still fairly young ; however , my name does not really roll off your tongue !
Riddle : I am no longer here , but I was once born in France . My beautiful pattern could even put you in a trance . Sometimes I am tall , but sometimes I am small . And if you must know one more thing about me , it is that I love to dance !
GREEN IS SO IN
You will have everyone green with envy when you ’ re rocking one of these green bags . Green is perfect for a monochromatic look or even a pop of color in an all-neutral look .
BUCKET BAGS
The bucket bag is making a comeback just like its distant cousin , the bucket hat , which made a comeback in 2021 . The bucket bag is perfect for an evening bag that can dress up any outfit . We personally love personally love how secure the bag is with the strings that pull the bag closed .
BRIEFCASE
Business formals made a comeback in early 2022 with tailored dress pants , vests , blazers , and matching suits . It ’ s only fitting for the briefcase to make its comeback as well .
OVERSIZED
No more tiny bags that can only fit a piece of candy . Oversized bags are back in style , which means we are back to being hands free and no longer juggling a million things in our hands .
Tote bags are the perfect oversized bags . They are fashionable and fit absolutely anything in them .
TINY BAGS
We have seen the trend of brands constantly releasing new and tinier bags that fit only a lipstick ! Some bags don ’ t fit anything and are just now an accessory to an outfit like the Area Chair bag whom Christine Quinn from selling sunset was rocking .
LOGOS GALORE
If you got it , flaunt it ! We are seeing more repetitive logos being rocked as well as large logos taking up the entire bag . There is no more subtly — 2023 is all about being flashy and standing out .
Riddle : I am not the first of my kind , and you could say that my style is most certainly refined . My older sibling is often called a classic , and my look appeals best to a certain demographic . I can ’ t talk , so you won ’ t know when I am around . And when I move , I make no sound .
Riddle : I am very old , and I came long before the famous ’ 80s band . When you pick me up , you will realize you can only hold me in your hand . I am a messenger of sorts , and my news comes quick . When you open me up , you will realize I am barely wider than a box of matchsticks .
