‘Aztec’ seems to be the buzz-word of this point in the season, so here’s a quick tutorial. Slightly more specific than ‘ethnic’, it refers in fashion terms to Mexican-inspired crazy patterning with lots of triangles, diamonds, zig-zag lines and the odd flash of neon.

I think it’s important to look at this bag for exactly what it is: a novelty item, designed to get attention and make people talk, and also a good collectible for those that love Fendi and want to add something really unique to their stash. Evaluating it like a regular bag is sort of besides the point. The Fendi DIY Baguette Bag is exactly what it sounds like – it’s a woven, unfinished Fendi Baguette with everything you need to embroider your own bag.

This riotously colourful bag from Anthropologie is a bit 90s second-summer-of-love, a bit hazy days on the beach and very, very now. Its shape and patterning, set off by twiggy leather strap, make it look almost like a natural floral form that could have bloomed in your wardrobe

Uh-oh – it’s a bag with a “sole”. I honestly thought we’d seen the last of this disaster of a design concept when those hideous goth shoe bags bombed a few years ago, but here we are with a similar idea from a well-respected design collective

The satchel has to be the coolest style to go for if you’re looking for a small-to-medium sized bag at the moment. Youthful and fun, it works particularly well in summery colours – and ASOS have all the bases covered here with their leather satchels in yellow and tan.

Can there please be more reasons to own a clutch purse? This Felix Ray “Lola” clutch bag is available on Bluefly.com , my new favorite dream shop. Unfortunately, the purse is a whopping $138.00. I can’t justify spending that kind of money on a purse that I’ll only use occasionally. I would, however, love to have it for my wedding day. I’m not big into the dresses that have colors through them. I do like a bright pop of color somewhere though. I love the idea of carrying aroun this bright purple clutch for that extra wow factor. Hmm… should I or shouldn’t I go for it?
