Size matters

After years hoisting around mammoth sized bags all the best-dressed girls are ditching them for mini ones instead. As Justine Picardie wrote in the Telegraph, “…if our emotional baggage is already a sufficiently heavy burden, why add to the load with an excess of physical luggage?”

Quite right too. We’ve got our sights on a gorgeous pouchette designed and handmade here in Toronto by one-woman-bag-band, Amy Malcolm. Her chic line Oppele Creative includes larger totes and tasseled handbags too, but we like these small and perfectly formed pouches ($54).

There’s room enough for life’s essentials. And really, what more does a girl need? —Athena Tsavliris
