How to style the bag charms trend
Are cute kitsch accessories your bag? If so, you’ll be pleased to hear that adorning your favourite bag with charms is the latest noughties revival. There’s even a social profile dedicated to this emerging accessory trend. But before you start digging out the keyrings you’ve collected from your holidays, there’s a fine line to walk when it comes to bringing the charm and looking like you fell into a toy shop.
Best handbag charms to shop
Your bag is cute but a purse with charms is better. The styling is all about giving your everyday piece a personality, it makes carrying around your essentials look less so. There’s a rumour that quiet luxury is on its way out, and the handbag charms trend is the antithesis – it’s all about clashing colours and bold styles. Choosing your favourite anime character or nostalgic TV show will help you lean into decorating your tote.
When it comes to size, large totes lend themselves to being dressed up (the idea is to carry your charm handbags under your arm like a pet. Find ones which have top handles, then you can attach your trinkets easily to them. Keyrings are not the only ones that can be loaded onto your chosen bag, find cute travel dangles to load onto your shopper.
The trendy bow
Thought bows were just for hair, then think again! Gift your bag a trendy bow to make it look presentable this season. Go big bow or go home! Don’t get tied up in the ribbon, that’s immaterial, explore sequin bows or faux pearls and plush bows.
Custom charms
Go for the charm offensive with custom charms in unexpected tokens and motifs, tactile faux fur keychains, or embellishment in the form of trainers and shoes. Also, anything that’s a miniature version makes a statement such as dinky handbags, animals, and neon slogans.
Cool keyrings
Unlock the way to accessorise your accessories through keyrings. Indulge your childhood whims with playful characters or ironic city tourist keyrings. If you’re hungry for something more palatable, how about your go-to snacks. From broccoli to crisp bags, we’re insatiable for them and they’re worthy of a place on your bag.
Cute figurines
The formula for bags to look cuter is not an exact science but clipping on a cult figurine from the ‘80s, ‘90s or ‘00s will secure you an A for accessory.
Miniature plushies
From teddy bears to plush animals, add a touch of fun and sentiment with miniature plushies and signature motifs that serve as an outlet for adorable self-expression.
Hello Kitty
The ultimate bag icon is Hello Kitty. You’ll find her in many iterations. Don’t forget her friends such as Cinnamoroll and Kuromi who she might like to hang out with on your purse.
