Handbags Guide

 

 

Handbags play a very vital role in the life of a modern woman. The multipurpose handbag is her utility item wherein she can store her valued belongings and carry them easily. Apart from this, handbags help women assert their own fashion statement and mark their own identity. Women match their handbags with their outfits and the hand bag acts as an accessory which becomes an important extension of her entire ensemble.Apart from diamonds, handbags seems to be another best friend of women!!!

However, it is very surprising to know that initially handbags were the utility items meant for men. Over the years, handbags evolved to become a popular item amongst women. They are now available in various shapes, sizes, colors, fabrics and styles.

 

THE RIGHT SIZE OF BAG FOR YOU

The purpose for which the handbag needs to be purchased plays a determining role in selecting the size of a handbag.

While purchasing your handbag always remember that the size of the bag should be in proportion to your size.

Petite women should not carry a huge bag as it will overshadow your entire persona and overwhelm you.

Large, over-sized women can carry larger bags well.
