Always have the perfect handbag for any occasion.
A handbag is so much more than just a receptacle to carry your knick knacks in. A handbag can be a daring fashion statement. A conversation starter. A piece of art or even family heirloom. Without a doubt, a handbag can speak volumes about who you are and what you value – so choose yours carefully.
Nina Garcia, in her book The One Hundred, reveals the six handbags, she believes every women should own:
A clutch.
A clutch can add a touch of drama to even the plainest outfit. When deciding which one to buy, don’t go for the safest option. Try something that stretches your personal style – an Alexander McQueen clutch embellished with jewels, or satin or even python skin! Be brave, but just make sure it’ll hold all your necessities.
