Here are a few bag trends to follow this season:
Follow the animal instincts. Tough some of the most exotic styles are made up of skins, fabulous fauxs are also catching up. Go for zebra print, cow patterns and leopard print.

Heavy metal hardware is taking center stage this season. Bags, heavily embellished with rivets, bars and metal clutches are in this season.
Larger than life bags, which can easily accommodate your entire cosmetic range, cell phones and virtually everything are being seen on the red carpet.
A burst of color on a shiny patent bag provides a fashion-forward look that is both brilliant and bold. Hot hues like purple, red and green are the latest hot favorites.
