The Baguette Style Of Handbag
One of the most chic handbags you can find in the history of bags is the baguette handbag. The name comes from the resemblance to a French bread, the bag being narrow shaped. It is a very elegant accessory, although it suffered a lot of variations nowadays, being adapted to all sorts of more casual events. The purpose of this small bag is obviously not to carry a lot of things but more for an evening event or as a fashion statement.
The Hobo
Somehow at the opposite end as far as use matters, there is the hobo bag. This bag is typically large and is definitely appropriate for daily use. The main design is that of a crescent shape; it usually has a long strap which shows that it was designed to be worn over the shoulder. The materials these bags are normally made of are flexible and soft, and the inside is not very well partitioned, so looking for the keys in such a bag might be a real adventure.
Messenger Bags
Messenger bags are very popular as well and were first created by Prada. It’s usually ample in size and is a shoulder bag that has long straps, something similar to bags that mailmen carry, but of course much more elegant.
When someone says styles of handbags you are tempted to think of women’s accessories, right? Well, you need to be aware that fashion has also thought of men, so there are also handbags for them. The so called messenger handbag is mainly created for the use of men, but not even here exclusively. Its large strap offers the comfortable solution of wearing it diagonally to the entire body. It is well sectioned inside and the dimensions are fit usually to hold even a laptop.
But no matter the bag and the fashion, it is obvious that the styles of handbags cover many options even throughout one day, so choose according to your personality and to the occasion!
