Trending – Colorful Purses for Spring & Summer
It’s easy to light up your wardrobe this spring. Colorful purses in bright electric shades are flying off the shelves.
Orange Bag
See the way this perky orange Tory Burch bag adds an energetic burst to this classic navy and white outfit?
I love the modern shape and the minimalistic design of this chic, elegant purse. Orange is always such a cheery color in the summer and looks fabulous with white. Here’s a look at some other bright purses that can perk up your style at any age.
Rich Red Bag
Bold Blue Tote
A gorgeous floral print wrap dress looks even more fabulous when paired with this stunning blue bag from Rebecca Minkoff. Color is energy, and energy is life! A bright bag can add a whole lot of life to the way you look over 40.
Carry it year-round – in summer with white and in winter with black. It’s bold and beautiful. I also think it’s a good size for everyday outings. It’s not too big or too small. You can wear it to work or wear it casually—this bright bag wows.
Pink Bag
This cute, ladylike bag in pale pink is super versatile because it looks as great with white jeans as it does with a pretty dress!
Colorful Painted Bag
Sunny Yellow Bag
Here’s a bag that will make you feel cheery because of its sunny color. This sporty yellow backpack purse makes an everyday outfit, like jeans and your favorite summer look, fresh and exciting. This pretty shade of yellow is bold but not overpowering, warm, and inviting.
It’s a happy-looking bag to have in your wardrobe this summer, and surprise, it’s reversible, so you get two purses in one! Dump your good old black or beige purse and go for this!
Do you have a favorite bright electric color? I always love a bright red bag. Take a look!

Hello Deborah!
Love these pretty purses! Could you tell me what/ where to find the cute pink purse? I can’t seem to find it anywhere. Thank you!
Hi Patricia,
Unfortunately, that photo is from last season and I don’t think that bag is still available. It is a Kate Spade bag if that helps.Here is something similar:https://amzn.to/4iFqZfJ, or Michael Kors has one too:https://amzn.to/4iFqZfJ This is this year’s version from Kate Spade:https://rstyle.me/+g7P8-BSW4PyQaBEf_97gnw I like this last one- modern. I hope that helps! Cheers, Deb
Thanks for the interview, Deborah! It was a lot of fun.
I will be 53 in a few days, on March 27. I have my 35th Class Reunion in August of this year, 2013. I am not one to wear a moo, but I do not want to dress young. I want to keep trendy with the bright colors this year; I do not know how to do it. I am asking if you would give me a makeover so I drop my jaws at the reunion.
One more suggestion, it would be even better to do it for my girl high school friends. It could be Look at a makeover for 35 class reunion ladies in a magazine or something. This would mean so much to me. We lost one of our friends to lymphoma. We used to go on long weekend trips yearly, but not since she died. This would mean so much; we would love to honor her. she died on April 21, 2006. thanks for reading this. We had eaten at the top of the world trade center and then went back after falling. It was unfortunate to know you had fun with people in the restaurant and had pictures of them. Just rambling now. If interested, I have a lot more to say and tell.
