Defining Style

The must have item used to be the oversized handbag, big enough to carry everything including the kitchen sink.  It was ostentatious with gilt, logos and very expensive.

Now there has been a retreat to a timeless and more practical alternative with a smaller handbag including the clutch and the shoulder handbag. It's now more about neutrals, quilting and chains, very Chanel.

The shoulder bag is in like never before and it is so versatile.  It comes in all shapes, sizes and colours to meet your look. 

And best of all it suits a lot of body shapes.  Great if you have a large bust or waist as it takes the attention away from your not so flattering bits. 

If you're going for the utility look choose one with lots of pockets in a neutral shade, if your love affair this spring is nude and romantic try a floral embellished one, or invest in a beautiful colour for the brights look.

There are lots of options so invest in your new shoulder handbag to create your perfect wardrobe.
