How to Buy a Handbag 
  • First of all, you need to decide on your budget for the handbag i.e. how much are you willing to spend. This is because handbags are available at prices that start at $10 and go up to $10,000 and even higher. If you do not have an approximate figure in mind, you might end up spending more than what you can afford.
  • Next, you need to decide on the reason why you want the handbag. Do you require it for daily use i.e. for carrying to office, or do you want it to go with your party dress. This will ascertain the type of bag you want. While office bags tend to be a bit larger and have more space, party bags are usually of the clutch and clamshell variety, with little space.
  • Matching the color of your handbag with that of your shoes is not essential. However, if the bag is in the same shade as the shoes you usually wear to the office or are going to wear to the party, it will definitely look better.
  • Leather is one of the materials that work good for handbags, throughout the year. Other options include a neutral-colored canvas or straw bag, both of which look great and suit most of the clothes.
  • After you have decided on the approximate price, design color and material of the handbag, it is now the time to go to the store and check out the range available. Make sure that the handbag you choose reflects your personality as well.
