First, it is necessary to examine face covering of a bag. It should have a natural and specific leather smell. If a woman’s bag is patent, you can rely on a leather tag attached to handle, or a special label inside a bag. Good leather must be resistant to action of light, moisture and friction, face cover should be limp to the touch, free from visible defects. Cuts can not be processed with pipe, but must be firmly sewed.

Handles, of course, too, must be leather, but not too narrow. Women’s handbag is considered solid, if handles are fixed not in the basement, but attached to special rings. Silk lining is considered the best quality, and it also can be replaced by solid kapron or nylon. In general, women’s handbag reflects feminine essence, nature and characteristics of female soul.

Tory Burch

American brand Tory Burch offers woman fashion accessories for every day: voluminous rectangular bags, business brief cases, bright clutches. All models are quite universal and can fit almost any image. In doing so, however, do not forget about high quality.

In a few short years a New York brand Tory Burch has been able to evolve from a small studio to large house with a network of fashion boutiques in many cities.

Her products are not fussy, have no particularly bright game with image, but there is universality, convenience, and surely style.

Handbags represent an important part of Tory Burch collection. Basically, these are the most popular models: rectangular bag with two handles, small bags and clutches of rigid forms.

Chanel

Bags with handles-chains are experiencing a new rise of popularity. Vintage Chanel handbags with brand straps - chain implanted with leather strap - are especially appreciated. There should also be a massive metal lock or latch, possibly with a key or numeric code.

So many bags, such a great choice! Naturally, competition is growing. All the more you realize that the territory that once belonged to undividedly Chanel and which later was successfully invaded by Prada, has now become a battleground, where all the major woman fashion houses are competing in the art of making bags.

One can determine where success reaches the critical mass: a bag begins to be illegally copied. In Rome, in the vicinity of Chanel store, you can buy quite bearable “singed” baguette.

In many major Italian cities, there are entire streets where they sell imitations of popular fashion brands, dealers are ready to catch their goods and flee at the sight of the Carabinieri at any moment.

Karl Lagerfeld, a permanent and continuing leader of Coco Chanel, walked away from softness and created some wonderful knick-knacks in a new collection: bags - plates, bags - tapes, as well as bag - Rubik’s cube are worthy to be taken to the next pass or dance pole. Classical Chanel bag this time gave birth to different variations in collections of other famous designers such as: Lanvin, Jitrois, Nina Ricci.

Handbags now become lightly and thoughtless. However, a business woman cannot be too light-minded. What should she choose from an abundance of bags and handbags?

First, hard, not very big briefcase, which can contain folders with business papers and all the most important - a business diary, calculator, pencils and pens.

Secondly, soft bulk bag with a long handle, so to speak, for all occasions. This bag, except for a large number of pockets of various sizes, as well as internal cosmetics bag, has a section for business papers.

And, thirdly, a large tough bag of geometrical shape with two long handles is very popular in recent years woman fashion. This bag looks very elegant.

And more: a bag made of natural leather can not be cheap. For example, a small masterpiece of Chanel costs at least a couple thousand dollars.

Chloe

For the first time this brand proved itself in 1956. Such great designers as Karl Lagerfeld, Martine Sitbon, Stella McCartney, Phoebe Filo (especially popular bag Paddington, created in 2004) worked in this house. Each new collection of House Chloe offers unpredictable, entirely new, unique trends. Ladies’ bag Chloe attracts attention to its unusual shape, bright color ideas.
