Bags are big any time of year

IT’S an odd time of year on the fashion front. We’re all still snuggling into our winter woollies but we’re being faced with all things bright and beautiful on the rails.
You might be a very organised shopper and buy ahead but most of us shop as we need it and see it. One thing that doesn’t pin you to the weather is of course bags!
Bags can be your fashion fix at any time of year in any time of weather and there are some great big beauties worth more than a glance.
They don’t have to clear out your piggy bank either and Gionni in particular has really well designed totes and day bags to put a smile on your face.
Oversized totes with flashes of colour work great for everyday use and have plenty of room for you to lose your keys in. If you’re tired of black but don’t want to go too bright, there’s a gorgeous navy tote that is perfect for spring and summer. Again if you want a bag that will pretty much match everything then opt for a nude or neutral beige shade. If size matters there’s a lovely python tote for €60 that is perfect to use now but will equally look great during the summer.
If you prefer something a little smaller that won’t weigh you down, try a casual cross-body bag or small over the shoulder slouchy pouch type bag. There are some great ones in tan shades.
Beautifully crafted and bang-on-trend designs, Dublin based Gionni have proved themselves as one of Irelands best loved accessories brands. Accessible and affordable there is something for every woman.
• Gionni is available in O’Toole’s Department Store, Tuam.
