I’ve been noticing this funny trend on my Instagram. Whenever I post a mini bag, I get a noticeably huge uptick in DMs. People want to know the brand, where they can buy it, or just generally gush about how cute they are. I’ve been sporting tiny bags for a moment now and wear them enough on social media that I know it’s not a coincidence. So what is it about the bag style? Could it be that most mini things are appealing? Mini ponies, mini doughnuts, mini naps… I could go on. Or could it be that they perfectly fit everything you need without room for all the extra stuff that could weigh you down? I personally think there are a million reasons to love a mini bag, and after you scroll down to read this story, I think you’ll be convinced too.
