Everyone has a favorite purse, that go-to bag you automatically reach for whenever it’s time to head out the door. I make no secret that my favorite girl is Yvonne - she’s a go-getter of a handbag, going from slim and sleek to open enough to fit my water bottle, iPad and snacks (and pretty much everything else I want to bring along!) Even though she’s my favorite, she isn’t always the first bag I turn to because proportion is only one part of the perfect handbag equation! Patterns are another consideration when choosing your quintessential carryall, and I have a whole set of tips to help you choose patterns that will flatter every time!
