I have been using bag charms for decades. They go in and out of fashion, but I like the personal touch they give a handbag. My bags tend to be in neutral colours and plain, so a detail in a pop of colour really makes a difference.
I have various charms but tassels are my favourite. They don’t make a noise and they are nice to fiddle with.
