a Handle on Choosing Handbags.
Handbags are essential accessory items. The right or wrong handbag can
either make or break the perfect outfit.
Choose a handbag that fits your figure and your pocketbooks. Handbags
come in different designs from funky to elegant to casual.
Choosing a bag is like selecting a great pair of jeans. It should fit
your body type and style. The shape of the bag shouldn’t match your figure
instead choose one just the opposite. For example, if you are tall and
thin select a bigger bag. The rounder your figure, the more structured
your bag should be. Rectangular or square silhouettes are great bags.
The size of the bag should also be in proportion to your figure. A petite
woman should not carry an enormous slouchy bag. The bag is too overwhelming
for her body type. A woman who is 6 feet tall would look strange carrying
a delicate hand-held bag.
Close fitting bag are great for showing off cleavage. If you have large
arms or bust then skip these bags.
Don’t’ be afraid to try a bag on at the store. Get a feel for how it
sits and looks. Is it comfortable? Does it feel cramped under your arm?
Most women look great with a bag at mid-torso. This helps to flatter
the waist.
When going out with friends, choose a fun bag that reflects your personality.
Don’t be tempted to by trendy bag that don’t suit you figure or style.
There are plenty of alternative that will work for you.
Know the difference between a fake and a lookalike. A fake is a knockoff
with fake logos. A lookalike is a piece that is inspired by the original.
