The Mini Bag Is a Fall Must-Have
While some of us rely on larger purses to carry our personal items,others believe the smaller, the better. Now it’s all about how tiny yours can get.

A mini is the statement piece you didn’t know you needed. It can be strictly aesthetic, like the Jacquemus “Le petit Chiquito,” which can fit only your earbuds, or you can go up a few sizes to the Prada Bucket pouch to house your essentials. Nevertheless, from snake prints to seashells, the designs for the petite iterations are quite eclectic.
