Bag Charm Ideas: How to Style Handbag Charms for a Personalized Look
An Elevated Approach to Personalization
Handbag charms have taken front and center stage as refined, yet playful accessories that add an elevated look to your handbag. The bag charm trend gives a personal touch and helps tell your story. From various colors, designs, textures, and sizes, there is a bag charm that speaks to everyone and will look effortlessly chic on your Brahmin. Clip-on leather pouches are making a big statement in the world of Brahmin as they are both fashionable and functional, designed to hold your essentials like lip gloss or car keys. They are bolder, more expressive, and more personal than ever. Small details make a big statement.
How to Handpick Your New Bag Charms
1. Consider Your Personal Style
Opt for pieces that resonate with you. From the color, design, hardware, and shape, find the bag charm that stands out to you. See what catches your eye.
2. Embrace Seasonal Color
Similar to changing signature fragrances, clothes, or jewelry for the season, handbag charms offer an uplifting seasonal refresh. In fall, opt for hues like chocolate browns, luxe greens, deep purples, and rich reds. Brahmin is known for being the color experts with on-trend seasonal hues designed to make a statement and show off your authenticity.
3. Fashionable and Functional
Many Brahmin handbag clip-ons are not only designed to make a luxe statement, but also hold essentials like sunglasses, your favorite lip gloss, mints, car keys, makeup, and more. The Brahmin Rectangle Heart Pouch and Circle Coin Purse are perfect options for carrying your essentials in a chic, elevated way. “I love these little coin purses. I have several of them.” Says Nancy H.

Placement Matters
For more structured leather handbags, clip charms close to the handle base to retain visual symmetry. On slouchy or soft-textured leather handbags, let the charm hang more freely, as it adds an element of ease. One handbag charm accessory can make a bold statement; less can be more.
Mind the Silhouette
Let your beloved Brahmin handbag design help inform your key charm choice. Consider the size of the bag with the size of the charm. Think through the style of your handbag as well, whether it is a crossbody, tote, or satchel, and how the charm will look with your full outfit. Brahmin charms are crafted to look fantastic across many handbags, so choose what you think looks best for you and your handbags.
Create a Signature Look
An intentionally selected charm, worn consistently, can become a part of your fashion identity. Think of Brahmin charms as a modern heirloom, worn across seasons, for decades to come, that conveys to the world who you are.
