As the saying goes, “a woman can never have too many pairs of shoes”. I doubt any woman would argue against this saying being extended to handbags. In fact, I’d go as far as to say that pretty much any fashion item, could be included under this umbrella – and there’s another accessory right there.
There’s a bag for every occasion, and much more besides – every girl needs options, right? So here’s Amor magazine’s handbag hit list for the Spring/Summer 13 season…
1. THE BEACH BAG. Michael Kors, Marina bags. Yellow and stripes, two massive seasonal trends, all wrapped into one mouth-watering bundle! This canvas delight is the perfect option for a summer’s day at the park or beach, complete with rope handle features for that sailor touch.
2. THE NOVELTY BAG. Charlotte Olympia, Popcorn bags. This show stopping number is perfect for a night at the cinema or even an evening at your local cocktail bar.
3. THE WORK BAG. Knomo, Galactic bags. The perfect ‘throw-it-all-in’ handbag, including a laptop compartment to carry your tech essential in style on the go.
4. THE TRAVEL BAG. Kenzo, shopper. The brand launched into the spotlight by a fashion blogger & celebrity phenomenon, sported by the likes of Rihanna and Susanna Lau. Made from a super lightweight fabric – complete with iconic tiger print – this bag folds into a neat little ball for easy storage when travelling. Great for day’s out on that sunny holiday!
5. .THE CLUTCH BAG. New Look, Holographic Clutch. When choosing a clutch this season, make it Metallic or Neon and you’re already onto a winner. This one is the perfect size too, and friendly on the bank balance – ideal disposable trend fashion.
6. . THE GYM BAG. Adidas, Hold all bag. This shade of blue is perfect for standing out from the crowd, and bringing some style to the proceedings after that long session on the running machine.
7. THE RUCKSACK. Nike, backpack. This one has style, if ever I’ve seen one. To make it even better, this range comes with the option to customize one for yourself, injecting your personality into your very own unique bag…
