To carry or not to carry.
It is a must have accessory,the fashion forward girl can't put all her must haves in her pockets.
That just would'nt look good or professional, so when you decide to carry a handbag be as fussy about its selection as you are with your wardrobe. When making your choices, think style,size,structure,color and season.
There are inexpensive options out there. there is no reason to sacrifice and carry an old, unsitely handbag. Even the wishy washy types with no personal style can make a nice impression,with the right handbag.
Don't think your handbag has to match your outfit. You should use your handbag to add contrast. For example a nice black handbag brings polish to a bright print outfit. The possibilities are endless, have fun with it.
If you prefer to carry the same handbag all the time,choose a neutral,go with a handbag that represents your own style,with out breaking the rules for your body structure. Regardless of style or size of a handbag you should never overwhelm your structure. Taller ladies can carry all most any size, while petite ladies should stick to smaller sizes. The same gos for straps, straps should not be be so long that the handbag hits your hips or below. An oversized handbag can make even the most dainty woman look dumpy, causing her structure to tilt, like the old pinball machine, when it tilted it did not work. Control your handbag don't let it control you.
Now that you've identified a style and size range, look for a shape that will hold even when filled to capacity. Often good structure can only be found with good material and even better construction. The quality can take care of itself. Features to focus on is elements such as buckles and fastneners, detaching these features makes more room, but at the cost of style. Keep the fasteners intact for a more organized appearance.
Last but not least, remember the seasons. Change your handbags to match the seasons and your wordrobe
