Spring ’11 accessories steal the spotlight

Bags are getting smaller, sandals are getting flatter and sunglasses are getting cattier. Those are just a few of the accessories trends generating excitement in fashion circles far and wide. Whether it's due to the challenging economic times or not, there's no denying that the past few years have brought more of a focus on these finishing touches.

As a result, designers have bent over backward to make them as dynamic and innovative as possible. Accessories have become the side act that sells all the tickets. This season's crop is no exception.
