As someone that has an unnatural obsession for handbags, I can appreciate the value of a great purse. Over the years I have accumulated a variety of handbags. I have every kind of bag there is, from a simple canvas tote, to multiple hobo bags, to even cute clutches; but the only handbag that I've never seem to own is a wristlet purse. I'm not quite sure why I never owned a wristlet, but let me tell you, I am totally jonesing for a beautiful wristlet purse. Wristlets is a great handbag because are very convenient to carry around, which comes in handy when you have a social event attend to, like a party. Not only that, but now more than ever, wristlets are becoming more of a trendy piece than in past seasons. So ditch the humongous hobo handbag and check out these fabulous wristlet trends.
The Coin Purse Wristlet

The coin purse shape has always been a classic purse style. But recently I have seen a few coin purse wristlet styles that have taken this classic piece to a whole different level. One great example is this Emilio Pucci coin purse wristlet. Made out of a dark silver silk, this purse is absolutely exquisite. Also the sleek chain strap accent and cute plastic bangle, is a beautiful detail that makes this coin purse even more special. This is what I love about this particular bag, that it combines both of my favorite accessories into one, handbags and jewelry. It was such an innovative touch that I think made this coin purse wristlet ahead of the pack.
The Flap Clutch Wristlet
Clutches these days are gaining much more popularity than in seasons past. That's because there are a ton of handbag designers that are coming out with a fabulous assortment of clutch styles. One of my personal favorites has to be the flap clutch wristlet. The design of the bag is so simple, but yet it has a very chic and modern handbag piece that is completely versatile. Flap clutches, especially ones that are made of very sustainable materials like leather, can basically go with any outfit. Handbag brand Ebisu has a great collection of leather flap clutch wristlets that is worth checking out.
The Metallic Wristlet
We all know metallics are very much an "in" thing in the world of fashion. From sparkly dresses to metal studs on high heels, metallics are everywhere. But no other fashion item has quite embraced the metallic trend quite like the handbag, particularly wristlets. There are practically hundreds of wristlet designs that use metallics right. From metallic-colored leather to beaded sequence, metallic wristlets are perfect to add a little "bling" and gaudiness to an accessory. So if you are the kind of girl that loves flashy yet fabulous handbags, then try a metallic wristlet.
As you can see, wristlets are taking the handbag industry by storm. These petite purses have proven themselves to be not only a handy handbag, but a fashion statement as well.
