Handbags are bags that don’t have a shoulder strap (although recent trends see longer handles that let you also carry them comfortably on your shoulder too). Handbags have a more classic look than shoulder bags, especially when made of real leather. Everyday bags such as shopping bags are generally larger and more capacious than the others. Everyone has their own style, and every occasion is a chance to wear your favorite bag or outfit and feel fabulous.
How to carry your handbag?
There are no precise rules: you can choose to keep it on your wrist or round your elbow and have your hands free (for example, while working) or to hold it under your arm. If you opt for a particularly extravagant bag for the evening, it can be the centerpiece of your outfit: combine it with a simple outfit and minimal jewelry and you’ll look glamorous and chic.

Shoulder bags
Shoulder bags are synonymous with practicality and comfort. They allow you to have your hands free and are an essential element in everyday outfits. The shoulder bag is one of the most popular bags with women around the world for good reason. Effortless, versatile and so practical, the shoulder bag is a must have for every season! It looks perfect with virtually any outfit: at work, at college, for cocktails or dinner, while traveling… the shoulder bag is always a great companion. On which shoulder should you wear your shoulder bag? The intended way to wear a shoulder bag is on one shoulder or cross-body bandolier style. Choose which shoulder feels most comfortable for you, and always choose models with adjustable straps so you can adjust the bag to the right height for you. Daytime shoulder bags must be practical and functional, and provided with a zipper for quick closure. Mini cross-body bags with either gold and silver chains are perfect if you don’t need to carry around lots of things, and are always suited for special occasions. In addition, small shoulder bags can provide the perfect subtle pick-me-up to any outfit, and are very practical and lightweight, letting you always have your essentials close at hand.

Clutches
Clutches and pochettes are the queens of the evening, holding only your bare essentials and a few pieces of makeup. Clutches should be strictly carried with your left hand (unless you’re left-handed) so your other hand is free, especially to greet people. Never wear it tucked under your armpit!

Restaurants
Where should I put my handbag at a restaurant? Some restaurants provide table hooks for customers to hang their bags on. If you don’t see one, you can opt for the chair, but not all chairs will let you hang your bag on them. If there’s no hook or chair, then just put your bag behind your back on your seat in the space between you and the backrest! Just never place your bag on the table. Alternatively, place it on the back of the chair, or keep it on your lap, if it’s a small bag.

Color choice
If you want to use a bag as often as possible, pay particular attention to its color when choosing it. If you want a versatile bag suitable for a wide range of occasions, go for neutrals such as cream, beige, black, gray or tan. However, the most popular colors for the summer season are often very bright, while darker tones and natural greens are a hit in fall and winter. Of course, you also need to consider which colors are most prevalent in your wardrobe, and which ones you rarely wear.
