Hi Everyone,
A red bag will truly never date – especially if you have the right red bag for you. There are 3 top tips to choosing the right red bag for you and these are covered further down. Red is the one colour that will always make a statement and uplift any outfit. A red bag is the perfect “goto” piece for any, otherwise dull, dark or boring outfit.
Every Fashion Week I have seen some shade of red popping up making a real statement. There hasn’t been a fashion week yet, (and I have been going each season for 10 years now), where red is not to be seen.

Why The Red Bag Will Never Date
My red bag is from Natural Nuance, my latest bag designer discovery. It’s pure sleek design enables the red to pop and give any outfit a stylish finish.
I love discovering new designers and have recently been preaching that when it comes to bags it is no longer en-vogue to simply go for a designer bag. These days a true fashionista will prefer to wear good quality stylish bags from a new label – thereby making the bag wearer somewhat “avant-garde”. Sounds great right 🙂
Natural Nuance was founded in 2017 by an Austrian-Swedish team of two female entrepreneurs with the ambition to create a new brand of precious and sustainable accessories. I have only met one of the designers so far – Ase. However she is so passionate about her bags and I loved listening to the story of how each bag is designed.
Each of the bags comes with both a thick and thin cross body strap. Making the bag very versatile.
Ase was ever so proud to tell me that Natural Nuance are winners of the Green Product Award 2024 Fashion Accessory category. The truly deserve to be proud for achieving this award in such a short time.
My bag is available online here.

3 top tips to choosing the right red bag for you:
- Get the right shade of red for you.
Are you more of a bright tomato red or darker red person? It’s important to choose the shade that works best for you and your wardrobe. If you wear lot’s of black however it is great to go for a brighter shade of red.
2. Quality.
Just like location is the most important thing when buying real estate, quality is the most important thing when choosing any bag. The quality of a bag can make or break your outfit.
3. Make sure the brand markings do not detract from the impact of the bag.
When buying a red bag it is important not to get one with the brand markings all over it. This will stop the red from having the beautiful popping effect on your outfit and can make your overall appearance look somewhat unfinished or messy.

Hi dear Yvonne thank you for your blog I love your blog and find your bags just sooo nice and I especially love the red bag thank you very much
I definitely agree that a red bag is a huge asset. I really like the fact that this one is naturally tanned and so (seemingly) lovingly conceived. Love the look!
