Stargazing On The Perfect Handbag

Handbag is a woman’s best friend. Agree?

Some of us (especially me!) maybe do not care about what type of handbag we are shouldering, as long as it is a bag! For mothers, usually we opt for a bigger bag, either tote bag or backpack, for the purpose of filling it with our children’s necessities. I mention again, as long as it is a bag, some of us just simply choose any.

Do you know, just like how your clothes’ design can flatter your shape, so does the handbag do with your body?

My granny, a chubby senior citizen with dark skin (she used to work kat sawah). My aunty likes to buy her things e.g. handbag. I tell you, it looks so weird when she holds a modern-stylish leather handbag.

Tips and tricks to choose a handbag is just like when you wanna choose your outfit. Pick shapes those are opposite your body type. I’ll only share about large bag, since most mothers love huge bags very much.

If you’re tall, a slouchy hobo bag might be suitable.

 

A hobo bag.

Hobo beg usually has a unique character of crescent shape. It is large and quite bulky. It is practical to carry your essential, yet stylish and have a touch of fashion.

 

If you’re shorter and bit plump, a tall, rectangular tote bag might be suitable.

 

 

A rectangular tote bag.

It is just a normal tote bag, but with rectangular shape, to make your body looks thinner and taller. A tote bag usually has one large compartment.

 

 

If you’re petite (like me?), a huge tote bag is a good choice.

A tote bag usually made from canvas and suitable for outdoors and shopping.

 

 

And as a very simple person, I love to splurge myself with a one-fits-all handbag. I think the tote black bag above is suitable for all occasion. Casual and formal.

Actually there’s lots of criteria to be looked on if you’re really particular about your handbags and your appearance, i.e. the size, the color, the origin, etc. But that basic guideline is enough for a simple person like me.

Popular handbags come in different type and name, i.e. tote, clutch, messenger, hobo, pouch, duffle, etc. You can see the many type of bags HERE .

Actually this entry is written specially for the upcoming Mother’s Day. And it’s a perfect day for a father to present a mother to his child something that any lady should has – handbag! It’s a woman’s best friend, remember?

    I selalu bwk 1 tote bag, td dlm tu ada handbag, purse, cooler bag, diaper bag etc. Sgt practical bila you ada 1 beg besar yang boleh masuk semua.

    And my tote bags ada mcm2 colors to match dgn my baju!

    K.Baiti xde lah giler handbag, hehehe.. tapi suka juga la usha2 bila yang kat tangan dah mcm ‘serabai’. Quite particular juga nk memilih, tapi x kisah brand apa asalkan practical. Yg paling suka if byk compartments + jenis yg soft sebab senang nk sumbat segala mak nenek, hehehe..

    1. Mommy Lyna Avatar

      ahaks. baik angkat yg kita puas hati terus daripada amik yang ala2 suka je, pastu terasa tak best pulak & bersusah nak cari lagqi satu huhu.

    saya kalau memilih handbag (which is 2 tahun sekali punye occasion.. motto saya “pakai sampai hancur!”), saya akan tgk compartment2 dia. kat mana nak letak hp, kat mana nak selit parking tiket, kat mana nak sumbat tag keja, muat tak nak masukkan purse yg gemuk itu, suka yg byk compartment sbb takde teraba2 bile nak carik barang.. gitu lah..dan biasanye akan pilih bag yg seakan2 sama compartment nye ngan bag yg sy pakai skang (supaya tak pening kepala nak rearrange barang). pastu kaler pilihan adalah hitam takpon cekelat.. senang leh match sume baju.
    saya suka bag kecik yg muat2 je barang saya..diapers, baju n segala khazanah fatin sy sumbat kat bag dia la..sibuk nak tumpang bag mama watper..pastu bag fatin tu ayah bwk..heheh
    tp teringin gak bag lawa2 tu, just saya ni pemalas bile nak alih2 barang dr satu bag ke bag lain.. takut tercicir menda penting..gitulah panjang lebar komenku.. (aci la kan kak along.. sy jarang mengomen :P)

      “pakai sampai hancur” = macam biasa dengar. 😀

    dulu zaman belum ada anak, mmg suka jgk mmbeli belah beg..mcm2 size ada, kecik (muat purse je), sedang2 dan besar. tp lps ada anak, mls tgk almari yg menyemak dgn beg yg jrg pakai..terus kasik sedara yg kecil2 tu tinggal size sedang dan yg giant2 je!

    tak kiralah sesuai dak dgn badan yg cekeding ni..asal boleh muat brg2 penting. my handbag skrg mmg beli mahal skit sbb mls nak tukar2! leh bwk ke office dan jgk window shopping (muat diapers 2 keping dan satu botol air-credit to BF mommy ;p).. kalau yg bsr tu, guna bila nak kuar seharian (more than 6 hours) dan pegi naik public transport…leh muat telekung, bantal Aliah, snacks dll.
