Handbags


Handbags are very much so a matter of personal opinion, of which mine is particularly strong. Firstly, there is nothing better than a big leather or suede bag. We all know how expensive It bags are, but I'm not talking Hermes or Chanel, but just any old leather bag. Vintage leather, crisp leather, brown leather, purple leather, mottled leather- all leather bags are hot.

Now that we have material out of the way, i would like to turn your attention to shape and size. This is something which i feel particularly strongly about. I'm not a big fan of the small bag you see. For instance, the clutch bag does like wonderful under Eva Longoria's arm, but lets be honest, they just aren't practical. 1. You can't fit anything in them, 2. You can't throw appropriate shapes on the dance floor with clutch in tow.

Small handbags just remind me of 90s kids, and i do have quite a major issue with people who carry small handbags and then bigger bags for the things that they failed to fit in their small bags- surely putting 2 and 2 together would tell you to get a bigger bag?! (however this rule does not apply if you already carrying a largish bag and can't fit even more stuff in it- you are then allowed 2 bags- but maybe you should consider carrying around less crap?!)

Also, a fashion tip i once overheard- a bigger bag makes you look smaller. Which i think is just fantastic, and therefore i will now always be carrying a big bag. As far as I'm concerned there are no negatives to big bags...

P.s! I can't believe i forgot to express my hatred for the small clutch come strappy bag- as my friend rightly pointed out- usually in satin, often diamante and always very offensive.
