COLOR BLOCK
The newest trend in handbags for spring 2013 may look like an oversized coin purse but these unexpected new mini bag shape are essential to any fashionista’s handbag arsenal. Inspired by military field bags these bags are surprisingly practical given their size unlike Karl Lagerfeld’s show stopping Chanel Summer/Spring 2013 Hula Hoop Bag. We found 5 great Canteen Bags to roll into spring with.

It's almost swimsuit season and we all know what that means, some extra gym sessions and hot new trends to show off that rocking body! For summer, designers are playing with color blocking, cutout pieces and even bringing back the one-piece bathing suit while looking sexier than ever. There are a few new trends to look for while bathing suit shopping this season, so grab your sunglasses, throw on some sunblock, and take a look at how you can get some of these fresh new trends for less!
We look like a Starburst. The magenta pink, cropped jeans which we thought looked very 'Isabelle Marant' and citrus orange, silk tank top we're wearing, just looks wrong. Its all just a little too... BRIGHT.
So, how do you color block in style?
The easiest way is not the route we took. Teaming colors from the same family together creates an eye-catching, sophisticated look - think bright cobalt with a soft baby blue or a primary green with the softest of mints. Keep accessories neutral to keep this look low-key.
