Though 2019 was the year that the mini bag rose to fame, the micro bag trend shows no signs of slowing down as we continue to downsize our purses and become more digital.

Our Betty Bag is sightly larger than a micro bag making it both practical and stylish. Carrying a mini bag enables mobility and feels liberating; less to carry, less to worry about. It encourages one to live like a minimalist by creating an edit of their everyday essentials down to only a select few. Embrace miniature moments with our women's small designer handbag that won’t disappoint.
