Trend Alert: Velvet Bags for Daytime

We all know that velvet is a great evening option for Fall, but did you know that this season you can also don a velvet handbag during the day? Plenty of designers are now coming out with casual, slouchy velvet bags that give you a great daytime look that's fun, funky, and just a little bit '70s.
