Many jokes are made about what we girls carry in our handbag but let’s face it, where would we be without them? They are our life support system, more important than a divers air tanks.
A handbag is not only for the essentials like lip gloss and mascara but for other things we can’t do without, keys, phone, credit cards and money and other emergency supplies like chocolate and tampons.
After shoes, handbags are probably our most favourite things and we all have a collection of them. Some for best and others that we love to use everyday as they are so practical and we are quite attached to them. Some girls would prefer to loose their boyfriend, rather than their favourite handbag.
There are so many different handbags around that it can be difficult to pick the right one. Long or short straps or no straps, large and chunky or small and petite, the choices are endless. Then there is the label, which designer is hot this year? Is it Burberry or St Laurent or maybe one of the independents like Rosetti or Kate Spader. That is, of course, supposing that you can afford designer price tags.
There are always the cheap replicas available, either from the market or on the Internet and most look good from a distance. The trouble is they often look what they are, close up. It would be really annoying to be robbed, just because some stupid thief thought you were carrying an expensive handbag.
When it comes to choosing a bag, we will usually try to match it to our shoes first, then our dress. We will consider all the different aspects of handbag design so that they match perfectly, yet we will nearly always disregard our body as a factor. This can be fateful if we are going for that perfect look as an ill chosen handbag can work like a funfair mirror, bringing out our bad parts and hiding the good. You need to discover which handbag suits your build so that you will always look immaculate.
