Bags come in many different designs, styles, materials and colors. They're designed, not only to hold your belongings, but will also to create a fashion statement. When categorizing bags, consider them in two different ways - the shape of the the bag and the way you carry it. First we can categorize bags by how you carry them.
Leather shoulder bag
SHOULDER Handbag
Shoulder hand bags come in numerous shapes and sizes. They are fairly large and might normally hold your wallet, keys, mobile phone, textbooks, notepad, makeup products and even more. They're sometimes compartmentalized with various pockets both inside and out. These bags are designed to be worn over the shoulder. Shoulder bags are extremely practical and possibly the most common bag carried by females.
CLUTCH
A clutch is a type of handbag that doesn't have handles. It can be carried in your hand or tucked under your arm. Throughout the history of handbags, 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 is growing in popularity. These hand bags are made the same as a regular clutch but they're much larger and can carry your entire essentials.
Clutches might be soft-bodied, framed as well as hard-cased. They come in various 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 designed to be held by hand. They feature a small handle. They are not intended to be slung over the shoulder - these bags can only be handheld. They're normally smaller compared to a shoulder bag, but bigger than a clutch.
Colorful tote bag
TOTE BAG
These casual bags are usually made out of canvas. Tote bags are open at the very top and often have one main compartment. Tote bags are incredibly big. When over ones shoulder, tote bags usually fall around elbow length. Tote bags are great for the beach, outdoor activities or buying.
MESSENGER BAG
Messenger hand bags can also be often called crossbody bags because of how they are worn. These bags are wonderful as you can't loose them! Worn over 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's popular among students could be the backpack. These types of bags have two straps and they are supposed to be worn on your back. Backpacks are fantastic for carrying school books, notepads as well as other somewhat heavy items. There're normally made of nylon, but they also can even be canvas or leather. Backpacks are also great for traveling, hiking, camping and various activities.
Design for handbag you decide depends on exactly what you need carry, where you are going and your personal style preferences. Lots of women offer 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 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.
