There are a LOT of handbags out there to choose from. If you don’t believe us, just take one step into a department store and survey the rows and rows of different handbag styles and brands. It can be very daunting going out with the sole intention of buying one handbag, especially if it isn’t for a one-time event like a wedding or banquet. Picking out a new everyday handbag can be a hard task, especially as the seasons change, bringing new trends along with them.
We have done the research for you and have come up with a few tips to help you select the perfect fall handbag. Use these guidelines and you’ll walk into the store knowing exactly what you are looking for:
Color – The colder months of the year can be tricky, especially if you fall into the seasonal color traps. Don’t assume that picking a burnt orange or other ‘leafy’ color will work in autumn. Instead, consider being bold and choose a deep blue or even an eggshell white bag. By switching up what is expected, you can really bring a new depth to your style profile.
Comfort – You are always carrying your bag along with you. Why wouldn’t you? Everything you need can be with you when you need it. However, many women do not consider their comfort level with each bag they own. Before you invest in a new purse, try it on and walk around the store a little bit. Make sure your bag will not become left behind in your closet.
Utility – The main purpose of your everyday bag shouldn’t be all about the look – although that is important. However, consider what you use your handbags for. Are you always trying to fit snacks for your kids in a small purse? Consider a tote. Does your bag always end up with too much stuff inside? Get a slimmer purse. In the end, make sure your bag is going to be useful.
