Date Added: April 28, 2008 03:15:51 PM
Let’s face it. Women are born to shop. We are lucky to have a variety of choices to choose from. Different sizes and shapes, colors and styles. The good news is that women now have a way to making smart decisions when it comes to bag buying. You can always find one bag that can suit your taste, complement your outfit and won’t make you lose too much money at the same time.
Make sure that your handbags complement your dress and your lifestyle. Are going for a sexy look or maybe a sassy sophisticated look? Do you have a corporate meeting to attend to or perhaps you have to travel for work? Do you have to dress up casually or do you want to go for a sporty look? You should always think of your lifestyle first before determining what kind of handbag you are going to use.
The next thing you have to do is to know what things are going to be put inside your bag. What do you have to bring? What do you need to bring with you? Are you going to need only your bare essentials (id, wallet, cell phone) or do you want to bring your whole closet with you? This will determine what handbag size you are going to bring.
If you are stuck with the same old boring bag that you have had on for many years, then you could always try something new. One new thing to do is to make sure that your handbag complements your body type. This is because you are actually carrying it against yourself, so you should want to make sure that it is not out of proportion with your body shape and size. Most fashion experts suggest that you should try being counterintuitive meaning if you have a small frame, a big bag may actually work great for you. If you are thin and tall, then a rounded bag will work. If you are curvy and short, then a long sleek clutch will work just fine. But also, try to keep in mind that your handbags should also be in proportion to your body type. For example, if you are 5’10”, then you should not use a mini hand bag. If you are a 4’11” then try avoiding a bag the size of a closet.
Did you also know that the way to choose the right length of your bag is to determine what part of the body you want to accentuate? Where your bag hits your body is where eyes are usually drawn to.
There you go. I hope I helped you pick your perfect handbag.
