A woman is often encountered by tons of different options when it comes to selecting a handbag. This is great in theory, as it means that there is bound to be a handbag for each unique woman and her personal style and lifestyle. However, with so many options, it may be difficult for a woman to find just one handbag that will go with everything in her wardrobe and will be useful in every season and on every occasion.
Those women who are more minimal with their collection of handbags may be out of luck, then, when shopping. But, if women who are looking for a “one and done” handbag read up on the right colors that can accentuate any outfit, they can be successful. Here’s what you need to know about handbag colors that are perfect for every season, occasion, and outfit.
Common Handbag Color Style Rules
In the old days, it was common for women to tout the style rule that handbags should match your shoes, or perhaps your belt. This style rule rose to prominence in the 1950s, but each passing year sends it further and further into obscurity. While this rule may still serve some women well as they put together their outfits each day, in the modern style sphere, this rule can be put to rest.The truth is that if you like a handbag, and if it is a nice, neutral color that compliments your skin tone and most of the clothing you wear, you should feel confident in rocking it. Plus, getting rid of the outdated idea that your shoes, belt, and handbag must match opens up the possibility for you to rock a bold red heel and a gold belt while still sporting your everyday handbag in a neutral colorway.
Most Versatile Purse Colors
When you’re looking for a handbag to wear with everything and take everywhere life takes you, you should know what the most versatile purse colors are. Versatile handbags are often the ones that come in neutral colorways. This includes beige, tan, cognac, chocolate brown, deep brown, navy, shades of grey, and, of course, black.
Choosing the right neutral color for you will depend on what you find yourself 
wearing most, in addition to the tone of your skin. You can find your skin’s undertone by assessing your jewelry or by surveying the color of your veins. Warmer skin tones may be best suited to beige, warm tan, cognac, or black bags. The best bag color for cooler tones may be darker brown, pure white, grey, or black handbags.
Neutral skin tones have their pick of all of the neutrals. Neutral handbags are best for any outfit because they do not draw too much attention with a bold color or pattern, which means your clothes can be the star of the show.
Neutral purses are also good for a variety of occasions, from formal to professional to casual. These colors go with everything because they’re often found in a lot of clothing pieces and accessories already.
Best Neutral Everyday Handbags for Women
The best neutral everyday handbags are the ones that you actually like and will wear. That means that even if you get a good neutral colorway that accentuates your skin and your wardrobe, you still need to choose a shape and silhouette that works for your lifestyle.
If you’re a commuter on public transit or live in a larger city, you may want to opt for a bigger bag like our Emily Tote. The Sand/Hazelnut colorway is a great color that will go with everything and will be stylish in any season.
If you’re always on the go and like to travel light then you may want something more compact, like the Jade Mini Crossbody Bag. This purse comes in a couple neutral colors and the crossbody style keeps you hands-free and ready for anything.
If you don’t like to be tied down to any one style and really want a versatile handbag for everyday use, a “coho” bag, like the Elena Coho Bag, is essential. This purse can be worn as a crossbody or as a hobo bag.Finding the Right Handbag for You
Handbag shopping can be hard and overwhelming, especially if you’re looking for a handbag that can suit everything in your wardrobe and can come with you into every occasion of your life. However, if you opt for a nice neutral colorway and a handbag style that you will never tire of, you can feel confident and stylish in any outfit you wear, regardless of season.
