Bags come in a number of forms, styles, materials and colors. They're designed, not only to hold your belongings, but also to create a fashion statement. When categorizing handbags, consider them in two different ways - the shape of the the bag and the way you take it. First we'll categorize bags by how you take them.
Leather shoulder handbag
SHOULDER Handbag
Shoulder hand bags can be found in a number of shapes and sizes. They're fairly large and may normally hold your wallet, keys, cell phone, books, note pad, cosmetics and even more. They are sometimes compartmentalized with different pockets both inside and outside. These handbags are designed to be worn over the shoulder. Shoulder hand bags have become practical and perhaps the most common bag carried by females.
CLUTCH
A clutch is a type of bag that doesn't have handles. It could be carried in the hand or tucked under your arm. Through the entire history of bags, clutches have been relatively small and often restricted to evenings. Clutches can take your keys, driver's license, a lipstick and that's about it. However in recent years, the "oversized" clutch has grown in popularity. These bags are designed just like a regular clutch but they are larger and can carry all your essentials.
Clutches may be soft-bodied, framed or even hard-cased. They come in number of shapes and materials, including silk, patent leather and sequined fabrics. A clutch can be closed with a fold-over flap, top closure, zipper, push lock, drawstring or any number other types of closures.
HANDHELD BAG
Obviously, these bags are created to be held by hand. They give you a small handle. They're not intended to be slung over the shoulder - these bags can only be handheld. They are normally smaller compared to a shoulder bag, but larger than a clutch.
Colorful tote bag
TOTE BAG
These kinds of casual bags are usually made out of canvas. Tote bags are open at the top in most cases only have one main compartment. Tote bags are incredibly big. When over your shoulder, tote bags usually fall around elbow length. Tote bags are good for the beach, outdoor activities or buying.
MESSENGER BAG
Messenger hand bags may also be often called crossbody bags as a result of how they are worn. These bags are good because you can't loose them! Worn over the body, messenger bag come in a number of styles and sizes. Crossbody bags are generally worn by students and travellers.
BACKPACK
Another bag that's popular among students could be the backpack. These bags have two straps and they are intended to be worn on your back. Backpacks are best for carrying school books, notepads as well as other somewhat heavy items. They're normally made of nylon, but they can also be canvas or leather. Backpacks are also great for traveling, hiking, camping along with other activities.
Design for handbag you select depends on what you ought to carry, where you are going and your personal style preferences. Many women have an favorite that they carry almost daily, only switching to a smaller or larger bag for special occasions or circumstances. Other women own dozens of handbags and switch their bag on a regular basis, matching it for their outfit, destination and mood.
Now that you understand the handbag categories by how you carry them, we will break it down a little further. On the next page, we discusses some of the more common shapes of handbags.
