Choosing a Handbag Colour | Designer Handbags at Jasper Conran London

With countless elegant bags to choose from it can sometime be tricky to land on the best handbag for you. Whether you are sourcing the perfect everyday bags or evening handbags, we have a vast and glorious range of bags at Jasper Conran London and our accessories guide can help steer you to finding the best one for you.

Choosing a handbag that serves both a practical purpose and adds an extra touch of style to your outfit can take thought and attention, so perhaps you may want to consider elements other than colour before making your decision. Larger handbags such as tote bags and hobo bags are a great choice for workdays and trips out with family, with plenty of internal space for essential items. The Bryn large stripe canvas tote is ideal for walks on the beach or trips to the seaside with its unmistakable striped patterns. This bag has three internal compartments, including a middle zipped compartment for storage and security. Pair this bag with our Frederica A-line denim dress for a casual look that still exudes sophistication.

Smaller, more compact handbags are well suited to evenings out with friends or formal events such as weddings, adding an extra touch of elegance to your outfit. Our Francine leather chain clutch collection presents a classic choice of black, silver or cream, allowing you to choose the best colour to match with your more formal outfits. Our cream Francine clutch bag looks perfect with our Filomena silk full skirt shirt dress, a pair that could easily serve you on your wedding day.

If you’re looking for a handbag to transcend the seasons, day or night, more classic and neutral tones such as black, tan and cream are a chic pick. Darker tones can match with all kinds of outfits, making them a perfect option for everyday use or your go-to bag for evenings out.

Tan is an effortlessly elegant and classic hue for accessories; not only is it a complementary tone for summer and holiday outfits, but its darker hue makes it ideal for the colder months too. Our Darcey leather hobo bag in tan is an elegant choice, crafted from refined materials to give you a handbag you can carry proudly almost anywhere. Complete with a sophisticated suede interior and extra external compartment, this bag has the capabilities to serve you for years to come. Tan bags work well with white dresses such as our Daria A-line dress; the contrast in tones solidifies an elegant look you can rely on day or night.

A little black bag goes a long way on an evening, matching with an array of designer outfits, from darker tones to more vibrant prints. Black sits well with any colour scheme, effortlessly complementing your entire wardrobe. Our Francine top handle grab bag is a chic, stylish choice, complete with hand crafted hardware to add an extra touch of elegance. You can match this bag with any formal evening outfit, but we recommend our Celia silk full skirt wrap dress in black for a coordinated look.

Cream and white are lighter neutral tones that can add a brighter look to your outfits, and stand out when paired with darker fabrics. Lighter coloured bags are ideal for the spring and summer months, but still serve a purpose as autumn approaches. Silver bags are also becoming a “new neutral” popular amongst handbag colours, and can match with both black, white and colour dresses. Our silver Francine chain clutch bag pairs idyllically with our Blythe full skirt shirt dress in white.

For a designer handbag that can accompany you on all types of daily errands, both neutral colours and brighter tones have their appeal. Depending on the season and outfit you choose to wear, the perfect handbag for you needs to provide a practical purpose as well as be a stand-out accessory come rain or shine.

Certain bags can be an ideal asset for multiple uses; shoulder bags and designer tote bags alike can serve you all day at work, and then accompany you shopping or on the school run afterwards. Neutral colours often work better for everyday bags, as they can match with all kinds of outfits throughout the seasons. Our Frida canvas tote bag is the perfect choice for running errands and visiting the workplace, with blended cream and tan colours to add an extra layer of style. Complete with an external pocket and a detachable pouch, you can match this dress with any of our denim dresses for a look that can easily transition from summer to winter.

Our Bryn tote bag collection boasts various benefits to help carry you through the day, especially if you are venturing out on a day trip with family. They come in a range of colours to help you make the best choice for your style, from zesty orange to versatile navy. Our pale blue Bryn tote bag is ideal for summer, with pastel tones that welcome the last of the summer sun. This bag pairs perfectly with our Demi short sleeve linen shirt dress for a pastel look perfect for a picnic.

It isn’t a requirement for your handbag to match with your outfit, but it certainly helps tie your look together. When you’re planning an outfit for an evening with friends or for a special occasion such as a wedding, you may be looking for a refined new handbag that will complement your attire and provide an extra elegant touch. Consider pairing sophisticated handbags with chic designer outfits of similar colours and tones to get the most out of your look.

Pairing similar colours together can create a cohesive look that is bound to attract attention and be your go-to occasion outfit for years to come. You can even mix and match your dress and bag with other combinations to create equally elegant ensembles. Our Francine top handle grab bag in green pairs perfectly with our Flora A-line silk dress in green for a summery look ideal for afternoon tea and garden parties. Similarly, our Bee mini grab cross body bag in red matches with our Edie silk dress in red for a classic look that can benefit you from summer to winter.

Casual looks can be created using darker, more neutral tones to suit all kinds of settings. Whether you’re casually running errands or taking a stroll in the park, a versatile look that doesn’t compromise on style is the perfect friend for your wardrobe. Consider matching our navy Bryn tote bag with one of our denim dresses, such as our Fia sleeveless scoop neck denim dress, for an effortless summer daytime look.

Summer presents an opportunity for bright colours and vibrant tones, which can be applied to our outfits and handbags. As well as providing colourful, lightweight and flowing dresses at Jasper Conran London, our handbags are designed to be the stand-out piece in your accessory collection, with colours and styles that aren’t just perfect for summer, but across the seasons and years.

Pastels and creams are always sought after during the summer months, adding a soft yet dynamic touch to any outfit. Our Bee mini grab cross body bag is available in pastel blue perfect for both evenings and daytime events alike. The Bee mini grab bag comes with a detachable strap, allowing you to choose between a handheld or a practical over the shoulder look. Pair this bag with a white dress for a quintessential summer and holiday look.

Cream handbags such as our Francine top handle grab bag are not only perfect for summer, but can be your favourite evening bag for all seasons, with enough internal space for your essentials. Brighter tones such as our green Bee leather mini tote bag fits perfectly with the bright, welcoming colours of nature, giving your outfit the extra touch needed for a walk in the park or on the beach. If you’re looking for a daytime bag for the summer, consider our Bryn leather tote bag in mustard for adding a touch of sunshine to your look.
