HAND BAGS

Accessories include, but of course are not limited to, belts, scarves, shoes, hats, jewelry, gloves, mittens, hair and shoe ornaments and the all-important hand bags. Choosing and coordinating all of these items can become a full time avocation for many women. It's an art. Here, we'll take a look at how you can make the most of your choices in hand bags and assemble a versatile collection that takes you anywhere on the fashion scene.

The basics in any assortment of hand bags accommodate the season, time of day, type of event and choices for both casual and dressy occasions.

For everyday all-around use, a good quality leather hand bag is a must. Look for soft, supple leather with stitched seams in a classic style. The lining should be leather or good quality cloth. Zippers on compartments should slide smoothly. Examine the compartments inside for suitability to the contents you typically carry. Such a hand bag will last for many years, given minimal care. Black goes with just about everything, if you must do with just one. If you have a special costume color that you often wear, look for a quality hand bag that goes well with that color. For example, a carmine red bag looks nice with a matching shade, a bright red, violet and several shades of brown and dark blue.

For summer wear, straw or light colored fabric hand bags are a good choice. If you're one of those women who can't resist buying lots of cute, casual and inexpensive bags, go for it, if your budget allows. In this case, you needn't worry so much about quality of construction. With so many to choose from, these hand bags won't see heavy use. A selection of this genre assures a sparkling accessory for a variety of situations and clothing.

For evening wear, you'll probably want a couple of hand bags. If you're just going for pizza or to the movies, you probably won't carry the full complement of goodies you need for everyday going-to-the-office use. Smallish hand bags of a good quality are versatile candidates for the mainstay for your casual evening collection. For a night at the opera or other such dressy event, your hand bag should be small and easy to carry. Many have delicate chains which slip inside, allowing you to shoulder it comfortably while walking.

Depending on your style, a good quality leather travel bag or a sturdy backpack completes the hand bag collection.

A carefully planned collection of hand bags will have you ready for any fashion occasion that comes your way! Happy shopping!
