A perfect bag to be replacing those heavy, oversized bags are the ladylike handbags. This bag can instantly make a casual look more trendy and done up and can also be used from day until night. It's a perfect sized, everyday type of bag and always looks elegant and classy. Runways for 2010 and 2011 have been featuring more ladylike silhouettes, an influence from the 1940's, as well as accessories and a perfect place to start the trend is with a ladylike handbag. If you want to dress the part think of mid-calf skirts, ruffled cardigans with a blouse underneath, and kitten heels. Look to the runway shows for Celine, Prada, J.Mendel, Lanvin, Louis Vuitton, Valentino, etc. for ideas.
