The Best Bags for Spring 2013

The new season is upon us so it is time to pick out the best designer bags for spring 2013. We saw a lot of accessories on the runways of New York, Milan and Paris and there were a lot of them to get excited about. There were sleek satchels, pocketbook bags, oversized leather clutches, and a bevy of enticing accessories laying the groundwork for truly exciting season. Noticeable was a focus on day bags, small clutches and a whole lot of interesting tiny bags which seemed to be the focus for the season. Bottom line is it is time to shop for new bags for the season so better start saving up pennies for that shopping extravaganza.

The following is my wish list for bags this spring. These bags are packed with possibilities and reflect the mood of the season.
