Regardless of how much attentive you are to your looks and how much you spend on clothing, you cannot deny the fact that accessories can add a lot to your image or even totally transform it. One of the most powerful accessory (and also the most functional one) is a bag. If you are into fashion, you know that having a big collection of bags is a real dream. However, if your budget is not unlimited, you should select your bags carefully for them to match many of your outfits and to serve you for long years. Yet, not everyone knows how to choose a model that will not leave one disappointed in two weeks. That is why in this blog, we will share several god tips that will help you to find a perfect bag.
The first rule when you decide to buy a new bag is to check if the model you like is indeed comfortable for you to carry. This factor becomes decisive when you are planning to buy a bag for everyday use. The point is that the level of comfort should be high enough for you not to think about your bag every minute because it slides from your shoulder or causes some unpleasant feelings to your hand or arm. That is why you should try to walk with the bag you like for a minute to make sure you feel good carrying it.
It goes without saying that your bag should not be too heavy. Don’t forget that an empty bag and a bag full of different sorts of things weigh differently, so consider lighter models. The weight of the bag depends on several factors. First, the materials it is made of matter a lot (cloth and natural leather are lighter than faux leather). Second, if your bag has plenty of metal details (zippers or decorations), you should be ready that it will make it considerably heavier. Besides making you feel uncomfortable throughout the day, a heavy bag can cause serious health problems, producing a bad effect on your spine and posture.
Although the majority of customers select bags by their outer look, you should not neglect its insides either. One of the most crucial things is the location and number of pockets your bag has. In this respect, tastes of different people can be quite the opposite. There are a lot of those who believe that it is a must for a bag to have numerous departments both inside and outside, because they allow to group stuff and to make the space better organized. By contrast, other people opt for an empty void inside because it does not pose any rules where to put what. There is also an in-between option: some bags come with a central divider pocket only. So, before deciding on a particular bag, you should make up your mind what you want from it regarding pockets. For instance, do you want small small departments for your keys or phone? Do you need big once for your reader, tablet, glasses, or your cosmetic bag? Think carefully.
Do not be in a hurry. Take your time and check the quality of the bag you like. Especially, it concerns zippers that should work properly. Regardless of the fact that some customers prefer open bags, you’d better opt for models that can be tightly closed or zipped. Just imagine that you accidentally drop your bag in a public place.
Now, you can inspect the design. The bag should be not only beautiful: it should match your style, color palette of your clothes, etc. If you cannot afford buying millions of bags of all colors and designs, you should give preference to neutral colors and classical design.
An everyday bag is a universal one. There are some that are meant for particular occasions (such as tiny clutches) but there are also those that you buy for more frequent use. They should match various clothing pieces, be made of high-quality, durable materials, be spacious enough, and be easy to clean.
