Bold metallic evening bags are certainly an of-the-moment trend. From sleek to slouchy mixed metals handbags to crossbody and shoulder strap options, accessorizing with bold brilliant metals is one way to set yourself apart.
Disclaimer: You won’t find any micro minis here. Because ladies need room for more than just a lipstick in their evening bag. These fab bags have room for a cellphone, a small wallet, or a card case as well. The metallic craze will have you seeing gold bars, liquid silver and eyepopping copper.
These are metallic handbags to swoon over:
