Bags can be found in a number of forms, styles, materials and colors. They're designed, not only to hold your belongings, but will also to make a fashion statement. When categorizing bags, you should consider them in 2 ways - the shape of the the bag and the way you carry it. First we will categorize bags by how you take them.
Leather shoulder bag
SHOULDER Handbag
Shoulder bags come in numerous shapes and sizes. They are fairly large and might normally hold your wallet, keys, cell phone, books, note pad, makeup products and more. They are sometimes compartmentalized with different pockets both inside and out. These handbags are created to be worn over the shoulder. Shoulder hand bags are extremely practical and maybe the most common bag carried by girls.
CLUTCH
A clutch is a type of handbag that doesn't have handles. It could be carried in the hand or tucked below your arm. Through the entire history of bags, clutches have been relatively small and often accessible evenings. Clutches can carry your keys, driving license, a lipstick and that's about it. However in the past svereal years, the "oversized" clutch is growing in popularity. These bags are made the same as a regular clutch but they are bigger and can carry all of your essentials.
Clutches may be soft-bodied, framed as well as 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 handbags are made to be held by hand. They have a small handle. They're not intended to be slung over the shoulder - these bags can only be handheld. They're normally smaller compared to a shoulder bag, but larger than a clutch.
Colorful tote bag
TOTE BAG
These casual bags are often made from canvas. Tote bags are open at the top and frequently have one main compartment. Tote bags are extremely big. When over your shoulder, tote bags usually fall around elbow length. Tote bags are good for the beach, outdoor activities or shopping.
MESSENGER BAG
Messenger hand bags can also be often called crossbody bags due to how they are worn. These bags are wonderful as you can't loose them! Worn across the body, messenger bag can be found in a variety of styles and sizes. Crossbody bags are normally worn by students and travelers.
BACKPACK
Another bag that is popular among students is the backpack. These kind of bags have 2 straps and are supposed to be worn lying on your back. Backpacks are great for carrying school books, notepads and other somewhat heavy items. They are normally made of nylon, but they can even be canvas or leather. Backpacks are also great for traveling, hiking, camping and other activities.
The style of handbag you choose will depend on what you should carry, where you are going and your personal style preferences. A lot of 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 lots of handbags and switch their bag regularly, matching it to 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.
