When looking for the latest handbag this season, think about your body type. Not every handbag is ideal for all women. Remember these instructions to choose the perfect handbag to suit your needs.Generally when it comes to handbags, the opposite shape of your body type is one of flattering. When you shop, head to the dressing room, carry the bag just like you normally would and check it out from all angles in the mirror.
Women with bag
TALL AND THIN
Choose handbags by using a short, slouchy shape such as hobo. Avoid shoulder bags with a short strap as they could make you look even taller. Pick handbags which can be wider than they are tall. A clutch is a good choice.
PETITE
Regardless of what you see in Hollywood, big bags aren't for small ladies. Big bags usually bombard your frame. Steer clear of shoulder bags with a long strap as they will weigh you down, making you look even shorter.
PLUS-SIZE
Pick a big structured or boxy bag to balance your curves. Don't use a bag that is too small as it will make you look larger. If you love prints, steer clear of tiny designs.
EVERYONEWhen you are splurging upon an expensive handbag, choose one you are able to wear often. You don't need to spend $500 or higher on the bag that may rarely allow it to be out of your closet. If you're buying several low-priced bags instead, select one basic everyday bag in brown or black. Then, try out fun, funky styles and metallics for the other hand bags.
