I’ve always loved how small or mini bags manage to feel intentional and a little bit indulgent. They’re not solely about practicality, although the smaller size is ideal for carrying less; they’re about making your look stand out, making them the best bag choice for summer special occasions. From garden parties to figuring out what to wear to a wedding, compact handbags are great summer companions.
Which is why when I spotted Anne Hathaway’s metallic Versace mini bag, I knew I had to hunt for similar styles for the season ahead. Attending the Pre-Met Gala cocktail party, she wore a sharp, tailored suit featuring tapered leg trousers and an open-neck button-up white shirt, all by Versace.

To complete the tailored two-piece, she carried the gold embellished bag, which featured circular metal handles and was made from a gold-tone chain material. Alongside the bag, she opted for open-toe stilettos. The bag offered the otherwise monochrome just the right dose of glamour, making this a look we can’t wait to recreate.
