So lets break down the situation.
You want a new bag. You have the shoes and the outfit, but you don’t have the bag. Sometimes finding the right designer handbag can be the hardest thing to find. Thats because there is a little voice inside you that tells you “this isn’t the right bag for you”. Even though the bag looks awesome, deep down something about it just doesn’t work and you know what. That little voice is right.
When choosing a bag we feel there are some basic things to keep in mind. If you keep these few things in mind you will always be happy with your bag purchase. To make this easier lets number them.
1. Budget
2. Color
3. Body type
4. Bag handles
5. Bag pockets
6. Storage needs
7. Clasp & Fasteners
Each of these seven areas should play a part in your decision. You can play the give and take game if you want to. That game should be just fine, but none of these should be disregarded.
First, over spending isn’t wise, so regardless of the bag. Your budget shouldn’t be disregarded. The designer handbag that you choose should be an amazing addition to your collection and wallet friendly too. Second, the color of your handbag can’t over power your outfit. How many times have you seen a young woman (who just hasn’t figured out the word balance) with a loud handbag that cost a small fortune. You know the one. She is usually in some Uggs, sweat pants and a tshirt. Oh yeah lets not forget the starbucks in her hand. (JK). Third, your body type is probably the most important thing to factor in. A handbag should compliment you, so if you are short and a little better fed then don’t choose a hand bag that is plump and round. You can create and illusion with your accesories and your handbag is your most important accessory. Fourth are the bag handles which fall into that same category, don’t ignore them. There are there to compliment you. Fifth on the list is the pockets on your designer handbag. Those pockets are there for a purpose, some of the handbag pockets are for storage. Other handbag pockets are for hiding things. Not all of your handbag pockets are used for storage so don’t overstuff it. Which moves us to number 6. If you need lots of storage, then don’t buy bags that are thin and slinder. You will never get the use out of that handbag and it will only collect dust. We believe that your bag should get used. While we collect them, they are not there to collect dust. They are supposed to see the world. Last do not forget the clasp, buckles, buttons etc. Choose things that will not snag easily and make sure what you choose will be friendly to your outfit. Some bag fabrics can rub your clothes to hard. Others materials can appear to be darker or lighter based upon what you wear.
As stated before, we think that if you keep these few things in mind that you will always be happy with your designer handbag purchase. Lets go shopping!
