Moony Mood Artula Handbag & How To Style

So I was just having a browse on Stylefruits and came across this gorgeous handbag that I absolutely fell in love with. 

When it comes to handbags, for me the brighter the better. I can be a bit unadventurous when it comes to incorporating colour into outfits, so I rely on my accessories to perk up my look.

I decided I should try and create a few summer looks on Stylefruits to show you guys how I would style this bag. So here are my 6 outfits :) Let's start with the casual looks first.

1. Sunshine State  

So this is definitely the brightest of the bunch, unusually for me though I think I would be very comfortable wearing this. I love the bright yellow jeans and think all the brights just seem to work well together. I also absolutely love the retro yellow sunglasses.

2. Casual Orange

This is very me. I like to be comfortable in what I wear so leggings and a fitted T-Shirt is the way I usually go during the summer. I added in a similar Orange colour with the shoes just to tie it all together and also kept the accessories pretty simple.

3. Summer Casual

The last of the casual looks, this is for when the weather eventually heats up (if ever). Again this is really simple, white tee and denim shorts, can't go wrong. In true summer style I've paired this outfit with some gladiator sandals and some over sized sunnies. The bag really makes this look pop and give it that summer feel.

4. Orange Works

The first of the more evening/work outfits. I love the grey peplum coat and it's not too heavy for spring/summer if it gets a bit chilly. I've also put two different types of shoe with this, one flat option and one heel option. It all depends if you like to wear heels or not, I personally like flats. The orange nail polish, again ties it all together by giving you a pop of colour on the nails.

5. Off To Work I Go 

This is the second of the work looks. Again I used the ring to tie it all together. I also added a black cardigan just in case you feel a bit cold in the office. No flats option in this one but there's nothing stopping you pairing this with some nice flats if you prefer.

6. Summer Nights

And finally, I'm throwing in a cheeky date night look. I don't know about you guys but sometimes a small bag just won't do. I like to be prepared, however bag this size may be a bit too big for a date night if you prefer to take out the minimum essentials. however I think because of the gold on the dress, the bag matches really well, plus I love to be carry anything and everything around with me. I've also added some accessories with a hint of the same colour as the bag. For makeup, I love a grey smokey eye with a LBD which is why I've chosen this gorgeous silver grey shade. All teamed up with a pair of killer peep toe heels.

I'd also just like to say as a disclaimer, that I am in no way affiliated with any of the stores listed in this post. Nor am I affiliated with the website stylefruits, I just love using it! I also know that some of the items mentioned are pretty pricey BUT you can most likely get cheaper alternatives if you have a good browse around :)
