A Handbag like any accessory states your individuality as a person. As you travel around the city, you want to look good and reiterate part of who you are through your style. It is vital that you follow your own style, rather than try to blend in with the fashionista’s of this world – as you will feel more comfortable and in turn naturally look better.
Choosing a handbag may sound simple – it’s about what you like after all – but in fact it is not as quite simple as all that. You have to know what not only suits your personality, but your frame, what is flattering colour wise, as well as have outfits that go with the handbag. It also depends on what kind of statement you are trying to make with your handbag.
Small compact handbags are not as flattering as larger handbags on the larger lady. If you are tall and slender a medium to large squared, rectangular or rounded bag will flatter your assets. Whilst if you are petite, a smaller bag will flatter your shape and enhance your body length. A larger bag on a petite person can look overwhelming; however, it does work if you do want you handbag to be the central piece of your outfit.
When searching for the right handbag for you, you will have to look at what colours suit you best and the outfits you will wear with it. It is no good after all having a dark drown handbag if all you outfits are turquoise blue – it would be a major mismatch. If you are going for everyday use out of your handbag, opt for a much more subtle or neutral colour, such as creams, browns, blacks and whites. If you have a few specific outfits to match it with, opt for a similar or contrasting colour – both can be flattering if you choose the right shade. Moreover, match the handbag to your skin tone, hair and eye colour. If overall, you have a much cooler skin tone, eye and hair colour, opt for the cool colours, such as blue. If you are warmer toned, then look for warm or fiery colours, such as reds.
Choosing what statement you want to make is also part of choosing the perfect handbag for you. Do you want it to complement your outfit as an accessory or be a central part of the outfit? Smaller to medium sized round bags look unobtrusive and will complement an outfit, whilst rectangular and bigger bags will be central to it. The petite Rachel Bilson emphasizes this with her love for big rectangular bags, which are central to some of her outfits.
