Glossary to a Girl's World: Handbags Part 2

I am super enthusiastic to be doing this Glossary post. For most of us who love anything to do with accessories, this glossary guide will assist us in our vocabulary when describing a particular item. If you miss part 1 you can read it here.

The Clutch





To me a clutch purse is a strapless handbag carried in your hand. I adore clutch purses. It adds that extra detail to an outfit. I have a particular appreciation when I am holding on to clutch while standing a line or exit an elevator. I hate tiny shape ones, I have a lot of things I need with me at all times so I need a decent size clutch that won't look over filled, also it should definitely come with an attachable strap as my hands tend to get tired from all the weight of the purse and as the night progresses I tend to lose interest in holding on to my handbag.

Best option in buying a clutch is leather as I notice with that certain fabrics as it rubs against your clothes it begins to fray or the colour begins to fade. Also a plus point with leather if anything spills on it the removing process is simple.

 


The Cross Body

To me this also known as a sling purse. It's super cute and I always find the most adorable ones in the kids section thou the strap is always too short. This purse is designed to be worn across your body and would be perfect for when you have no pockets and just need a sack for your lipstick and cell phone. I find it very handy when going to the beach or to a festival.

Best option in this purse is to get one that is well made for it can see you through any situation, especially when on holiday.


The Doctor

Paging Doctor McDreamy. This bag shape is very similar to The Blower. I would probably pick a Blower shape over this one as this shape is just a tad too mature for my taste atm. I can see a professional career personality carrying this particular shape purse. 


 


The Duffle

 
Aka overnight bag/ gym bag, but the correct term is duffle. I loved getting the brightest one and thanks to Addias and Nike they always have the coolest ones around. This bag has definitely been used by all of us. From sleep overs to catching a flight it is a very handy bag around and probably one shape bag you find guys tend to carry around more than girls.
