1. Make Sure it's Comfortable to Carry
A handbag as with your clothes must
be at a comfortable level that you are happy with. Some years ago Gucci was
having huge sales in Melbourne (they'd never have it again as they believe it
"dilutes" the brand) and I purchased the handbag. One thing I noticed
was the ease with which it fits on my shoulders without slipping off and fits
comfortably underneath my arm. I was being thought "No wonder people
normally pay so much for this kind of good design".
Take a look at a purse and observe if
it makes your arm swivel in an uncomfortable way. Does it slip off your
shoulders with ease? Do you need to carry it around by the handles, which is
not your preferred style?
We all love the style of a purse but
if it does not provide the proper convenience for carrying (and you'll carry it
around frequently and for extended periods) it will cause you to get angry
pretty fast.
2. Make Sure it's Not Too Heavy
I love leather bags since when they
are scratched (which they are bound to) it is possible to be repaired in a way that
is different from the fake leather bags. It means that the investment I made
will last longer, as like a quality pair of shoes made from leather I can clean
my leather bag. But, occasionally leather bags can be quite heavy even when
empty. That means that the moment I put my kitchen sink in the bag, I'll carry
around an extra 45kg of weight onto my back. It's not ideal on my shoulders (or
my mood).
Take a look and note how heavy it
feels. Sometimes, that metal accent can be a burden on bags - it is beautiful
but not practical heavy.
3. The Right Pockets for You
Is it a pure interior or is it a
house with pockets? If it does have pockets, which type are they, and in what
quantity?
What you enjoy is specific to you.
For me, I've realized that I don't like an open divider pocket but I do
appreciate pockets where I can put an extra pen, or two glasses cleaning cloth,
and other smaller items. I prefer a pocket that where I can put my phone and
also I love having a pocket on the exterior that zips so that I can put my car
keys into. The Zohara bag is great as it has pockets on the inside and outside
of the bag. Front and the back!
In a clutch that is smaller or a
night bag, I adore the pockets for cards since I don't wish to carry around my
normal purse, but it's great to carry along a credit or debit card, as well as
some other pieces and bits (like my driver's license from the days before you
were "carded" as I looked too young to afford an alcoholic drink!). I
have a Bellorita fish clutch, which is featured in this post and is full of
pockets for cards, and a handy zip-up section as well.
I like having a zip pocket in my
evening purse, as it's the place where I"'m likely to stash some cash
also.
In addition, there should be plenty
of space to store lipstick and glasses for reading, phone and keys, too.
Nothing is more embarrassing than an evening bag that doesn't have room for all
of your necessities.
4. Zip it Up
I love a purse that can be completely
zipped or shut up in a way that if I'm traveling and it gets tipped over
nothing spills out. Particularly larger and totes bags with zip closures can
make the difference when you have to be able to close your bags in order to
keep your contents secure.
The bag I purchased from Zoharais
with a stunning teal (a popular and extremely versatile color) and is made of
high-quality leather. I bought it during my recent trip to the UK and I've
discovered it that comes from the Northern Irish Causeway Coast (which I also
visited during my stay) and I also get a bit of local when I travel.
5. Make it Beautiful
There's also the style. It's a
delight visually as well. I'm a big believer in the functionality and form -
neither is superior to the other.
Color is one way to communicate -
which is why I have a variety of bags with different colors.
A bag can appear simple but if it's a
gorgeous color - the color is the main character.
However, if you're looking for an
all-black bag, it must have additional design elements that make it look more
visually appealing. Plain and black = boring and boring. Not stylish.
Details in design (like on this bag,
which was given to me by Bellorita) can make a boring black clutch into a work
of art and a conversation starter. If your style is basic and boring, your bag
can be the center of attention.
6. Make it Versatile
There might be bags designed
specifically for certain purposes (such as an evening bag for an evening) but,
as a daily bag, if you are someone who owns a single bag that is worn with
everything anywhere - all the time the bag must be flexible in its style.
You need to dress up enough to match
your workplace attire.
It should be soft enough that it can
be paired with your casual attire.
It must be in harmony with your color
palette to ensure that it doesn't look sloppy with your outfit.
How do you choose the right bag to match every outfit? The first step is to consider the color as a reflection of
your hair's color. This is the color you will never leave off. It's always on
your head and that's why your hair color is such an ideal color for bags as
well as coats, shoes, and belts. These are the parts of clothes to "go
over" lots of other clothes.
My second option could be reflecting your eye color - a different signature color in the same way, except that if you don't have a set of eyes made of glass in different colors, this part of you does not change over time.
