Bag: Rebecca Minkoff micro Regan satchel in Harvest Gold
Why I wore it:
I needed to have a bright and colourful outfit to surprise my sons who were getting awards at school. I'd had to dash away from work to see it, so I got there a little late and was stuck in the back of the crowd, but was so pleased that they both saw and noticed me. I think this yellow cape is very hard to miss!The navy tee and denim shorts are a combination I'm sure I've worn before, but it's the first time I've tried this mustard bag with the brighter yellow cape. I really liked this combination, and the bag was just roomy enough for the essentials for the school run and a camera for taking some photos of the ceremony.

Ways to Wear Colourful Handbags
What I wore:
Necklace: Roie Designs feather, quartz and love charm long necklace
Tee: Jeanswest essential v-neck tee in elfin yellow
Skirt: thrifted Target black stretch denim skirt
Shoes: Adidas Stan Smith sneakers in white and navy
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff yellow mini 5 zip
Why I wore it:
This pastel tee was a lot more muted, so I added a little more yellow to brighten it up. With the yellow tee and black denim skirt, I wanted to add a little more colour to avoid looking too bumble-bee like, but I felt this duster wasn't quite as brightening as it could have been. I do like the navy against the yellow tee, but it needed an extra touch of colour, and so I added a third shade of yellow in with this cheerful Rebecca Minkoff mini 5-zip bag. It's such a fun accessory!Nice and comfortable for a busy day with the school run and working from home again, as well as helping in my son's classroom in the morning and a couple of errands after I picked the kids up from school in the afternoon.

How You Can Wear It:
Yellow bags are fun pops of colour to add to your outfit. Like any colourful bag, they can still work well even if the shade or shades of yellow in your outfit are different, as you can see here in these outfits.
