If you are interested in always wearing something eyecatching, one way to elevate this gorgeous look is a bright red pop of color.

Similar to the advice we gave in the very first outfit – purchasing a bag that is bright red, will most likely fit all of your outfits, and elevate them.

15 – Tie A Ribbon Around Your Purse For A Tuscan Inspired Aesthetic

If you ever see how Jane Birkin rocked her purses, you will understand that perhaps sheltering your bag from any decoration is not the way to go.

She was infamous for hanging lots of decorative beads or scarves around the handles, and the effect was mesmerizing. Try this out for yourself, especially for the summer.

Try to find a small satin scarf, or some ribbons and let them hang down alongside your bag. The key here is to match the print on the scarf to your outfit.
