The
handbag is not just a comfortable accessory to keep all our personal
things in, like our sunglasses, cell phone or wallet; it is an
essential part of any woman's life-style! Without the handbag, women
don't feel complete or comfortable, because a handbag is part of us
and of our look; it represents us, our personality and our habits.
Men's
bags
are taking the fashion world and around the world by storm this
season - no longer are they a purely practical and dull accessory,
but men are being given choices of materials, design and style that
have never existed before. Stylish young men at the forefront of
fashion and it's trends will know exactly what to avoid and what will
suit them, but how does a man, who has never until now though of
carrying any sort of bag beyond a briefcase or a backpack, know what
to choose?
Wearing
a gorgeous accessory or a luxury dress is always very special for a
woman because, through a luxury item, she can also express her taste,
refinement, outlook and her sensual femininity. A luxury handbag
accessory enhances her charm and her beauty, highlighting love for
her body and her personality and her physical aspect.
* Handbags with pendants and buckles: if you are an original woman
who loves being appreciated and admired for her extreme elegance, you
can't do without a luxury handbag decorated with gorgeous accessories
such as refined pendants made of pearls and shining rhinestones or
round buckles.
*
Small bags: lovely jewels enriched with rhinestones and decorations,
they are an explosion of elegance and light, whatever your look. They
can make your summer extremely fun and joyful, if they are made in
the most fashionable vivid tonalities such as violet, purple,
turquoise, red, emerald green; and are even more seductive and
gorgeous if made of exotic leather in the newest trendy metallic
shades such as silver and gold.

1. It's the Logo that Counts
You usually just have one bag, but you like to look smart so it must have a prominent designer logo on show. You probably bought your bag quite a while ago, perhaps even in the sales, but you don't care if it is a design from an old collection, or even if it is getting a bit worn, as long as the logo is still in good shape.
