Helping women love what they wear on a budget

Adding a Pop of Color to Your Wardrobe

July 2, 2018 by Katie Haller

I love color, but when it comes to my wardrobe, I often stick to neutral and dark colors.  I’m always drawn to black, white, browns and nudes.  That’s why I am always looking for ways to add some color to my wardrobe.  I often add in my color with accessories.  It’s the easiest way for me to add some color without overdoing it.  I love using a colorful purse to just add the pop of color I’m looking for.

I often get a lot of complements of my coral satchel purse.  It was a gift from my aunt before I moved to Las Vegas.  She said that she thought it would look perfect in the desert and she was right.  I’ve been carrying it off and on ever since I moved out to Vegas.  I love that it’s bright and it just adds that pop of color my outfits need.  I also love the classic style of this purse.  I like to find purses that have a timeless style to them.  A trendy purse can go out of style so quickly. 
Today I wanted to share some of my looks while using this purse and often some similar shopping options for you.  
 

 

So where can you find a colorful purse like mine??  Well, just like most of my wardrobe, you can’t find my exact item in stores anymore.  But you can find some similar classic colorful purses like mine.  For me, I always have good luck at stores like TJMaxx, Marshalls and Burlington Coat Factory.  Usually, you can find some decent brands with good quality for under $40.  I do love classic brands like Coach and Kate Spade and I’m a big fan of outlet shopping, so if you want to make a splurge, I recommended checking out the outlet stores.  The other two places I always find really cute purses for a decent price are Target and Charming Charlie.  Charming Charlie probably has the best selection of colors.  Below I have some colorful purses that I found for under $80.
