TALL AND THIN
Select handbags by using a short, slouchy shape like the hobo. Avoid shoulder bags with a short strap as they can make you look even taller. Choose handbags which are wider than they are tall. A clutch is an excellent option.
PETITE
In spite of what you see in Hollywood, oversized hand bags aren't for small women. Large hand bags tend to overwhelm your frame. Steer clear of shoulder bags with a long strap as they will weigh you down, making you look even smaller.
PLUS-SIZESelect a big structured or boxy bag to balance out your curves. Don't carry a bag that is too small as it will make you look larger. If you enjoy prints, keep away from tiny designs.
EVERYONEWhen you are splurging on an expensive handbag, make a choice that you may be able to wear often. There's no need to spend $500 or more on the handbag that may rarely allow it to be out of your closet. If you're purchasing several low-priced bags instead, pick one classic everyday bag in brown or black. Then, try out fun, funky styles and metallics for the other bags.
