So far, StyleDash has given you loads of advice on what's hot for spring, so you probably know what you should be shopping for, buying, and wearing. However, even if you incorporate those new styles, you're not going to achieve the look unless you pack away some of your winter items first.

Bag Snob gives a rundown of what bags to "Flash or Stash" this season, and these same ideas can be used on other parts of your outfit. For example, fur and suede are heavy, warm materials that are best saved for cooler months. Same thing goes for items with lots of beading and embellishments -- hold them for the holidays. And, unless you're visiting your Aunt Dorothy in her retirement home in Boca Raton, you should probably keep the wild animal prints to a minimum (however, I kinda love a little touch of leopard just about any time of year, but that's just me).

What's getting pushed to the back of your closet this season? And what are you most excited to bring out from hibernation?

Each season brings a new It bag (or several, as the case may be). Some of these bags are incredibly expensive, which is fine if you can afford it, but most folks can't. Others are beautiful, but really, really trendy, so while they'll look great this season, next year you'll be sick of carrying it.

To me, the perfect It bag is the one that is at the height of fashion without looking like it's about to plummet off the edge of the style map. It's great if it's somewhat functional, and even better if it's not $1500.

Well, let me introduce you to Anabelle (pictured) by RUEHL No. 925 -- isn't she lovely? Lots of celebrities think so, including Ali Larter, Katherine Heigl, Minka Kelly, and Vanessa Hudgens. And it's not just Anabelle they're jonesing for (although I personally think it is everything that this season's It bag wants to be) -- RUEHL has loads of fantastic, high quality handbags, and they're not going to cost you a month's rent. I mean, you might not be able to get five of them, but then again, maybe you can!
