The Best Holiday Evening Mini Bags

12 Mini Evening Bags We'll Wear Throughout the Holiday Season

As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too. If you buy a product we have recommended, we may receive affiliate commission, which in turn supports our work.

It feels like we blinked and the holidays are here, but nevertheless, it's time to start getting our party wardrobe updated and ready to go. Holiday party invitations are already starting to come in, and we're so excited. But going out to lots of cocktail parties means you need to have the right bag. It should be small enough that you won't feel burdened by it, and as far as silhouettes go, we like a classic clutch, an easy crossbody, or a ladylike top-handle bag. Really, we'd take any one of these 12 cute picks.

Whether you want something neutral, something bright, or something sparkly, we've got you covered. In particular, there's a velvet celestial bag that's calling our name and a mini version of the season's It bag we've just got to snap up before it's gone again. Keep reading to shop our picks!
