Is the mini bag trend here to stay?

I like mini bags, but limited myself to one cos it's not practical for my current life with a toddler. Even then I chose to have a woc, since I find it more versatile - can easily chuck into a larger bag, it's flat so I don't worry about it being squashed, and it it has a removable chain, I can also use it as a large wallet.
 
I love my small/mini bags. I don't care for micro bags that won't even fit a phone but as long as the bag fits my phone, card case, six key holder, and lipstick then I am good to go. That's basically all I carry on a normal day so why do I need to carry a larger bag when I will only use a tiny fraction of the space? Big bags are just inconvenient for me and they also look bulky on my petite frame. So long live the small/mini bags!
 
I find that many mini bags don't fit my keys. Or my work badge. So they are pretty pointless. I am not going to take off half my keys for a purse. I have pared down my keys to about 6, but one is a bulky bike lock key. 3 include my fromt door, home door and garage key. And I don't even drive most of the time, so it doesn't even jnclude that key.
