How to Pick the Right Bag Must-read!

You might want to pick atleast one bag in each category (everyday, work, travel, etc.) in simple designs and neutral, versatile colors like black, brown and white/cream.

And if you're a total bag-lover, you can experiement from there with statement colors and details like bright red, tassels, studs.. I recommend you pick bags that keep you covered on all kinds of occasions -- from shopping, parties, lunch with friends to traveling.

Leather Shoulder Bags Wardrobe Essential

It's perfect for carrying your books to school, work or for anything, really. For versatility I recommend you to stick with dark colors like black or brown.

Your everyday bag should have enough space to carry your makeup bag, a couple of books or notepads, etc. So go for casual types like oversized, hobo, satchel or messenger with long strap.

Since you'll be using your everyday bag frequently I recommend high quality leather (genuine or faux, it doesn't matter) bags for durability.

Tip: If you're a career woman or want something that's appropriate for office work, also add a sleek and corporate looking handbag. You'll also need it for job or school interviews.

Evening Purses Wardrobe Essential

Choose between a purse with thin strap or a clutch. I think two evening purse bag with simple designs;one black and the other one in white with/or without gold or silver frame, will keep you covered on all occasions (both fall/winter and spring/summer).

Cross body bags are great for lunching out with your friends, going to the movies and even when you're on a tropical vacation.

The long strap and small body won't interfere with whatever you're doing. Plus, they're cute and chic!

Travel Bag Wardrobe Essential

This will mainly be your carry-on bag when traveling or when you're spending a weekend someplace.

It should be bigger than your everyday bag. Try a big leather travel bag or a rolling travel bag.

Luggage Bag Wardrobe Essential

For longer vacations, pick a stylish luggage bag without sacrificing style when you have jet-lag. It should definitely be bigger than a travel bag as you're going to pack your clothes and shoes in there.

Some of the most popular style happens to be pink luggage and designer luggage. The last one being on slightly expesnive side but you can find discount designer bags on the net.

Try a wheeled expandable luggage in your favorite color and details -- which gives you extra space on your way back home. It's chic, simple yet practical!



Tip: You might want to pick a luggage in an unusual design or color. Plain ones are harder to spot -- because chances are that most people have the same luggage color as yours. I've experienced this once when my sister and I were traveling back home and we picked up the blue luggage that we that was ours. But on our way to the car, a woman called us on my cell phone explaining that she had mistaken our bag for hers as it was the exact color and design!

You might want to buy a couple of stylish luggage accessories like a name tag or a strap to make it easier for you to identify when picking up your luggage after a flight.
