Posted on: Apr 8

In these uncertain financial times, it bags are out and classic purses are in. But it can be challenging to work out which handbags will stand the test of time, and which will fade from fashion before the next season comes. The Examiner has taken the mystery out of the great accessories search with their guide to the five handbags every fashionista must own.

Office Bag

Briefcases are out and stylish totes and shoulder bags are in. You'll want something large enough to carry a laptop, your files, and a few magazines for the daily commute. Black and brown are office staples, but don't be afraid to experiment with a little color.

Everyday Bag

It might seem like a no-brainer, but it's surprising how many women don't own a basic handbag. Opt for neutral colors like black, brown, or navy for easy accessorizing with your favorite outfits. Then add interest by choosing a fun shape or design.

Weekender

Weekenders are an often overlooked player in any purse posse, but they're essential for those short getaways. These large handbags allow you to carry those extra girly goodies like PJs, toiletries, and cosmetics, while maintaining your style. If you choose the right weekender, it can also double as a beach bag for those seaside getaways!

Clutch

We've scaled up with the weekender, now we need to talk about scaling down. The clutch is the weekender's antithesis, and as essential as gal pals for a great night out. Look for a clutch that's big enough to carry your evening must-haves, but small enough to tuck under your arm.

Classic Bag

Think of the classic bag as the accessory equivalent of a little black dress. It should embody timeless appeal and never lose its wow factor. Search for this elusive gem, and give it the special place in your closet that it deserves!
