Which Handbag Is Best For Your Body Type?

Believe it or not trying on a purse is just as important as trying on clothes. A purse may just be an accessory, but it can really ruin your look if you wear the wrong style, size, or shape. You might not be aware of this, but the part of the body that the bag will rest on is the part of the body that the eye will be drawn to. Your positive attributes can actually be accentuated by the right choice of handbag. You should learn how to choose the right bag for your body type before you order one of the season's hot, new bags.

Before you purchase a purse online, you must consider these things first.

If you are slim and tall.

You are very lucky then! You can get away with most purse styles if you are tall and slim. Oversize bags, shoulder bags and clutch bags will all look great. There is one thing you should watch out for, and that is the size of the handbag that you choose. Small bags should be avoided as they will make you look bigger. Floppy, mid size, large, or bulky handbags are the best choices. Bright colors, prints, as well as patterns are good choices too.

Are you short and petite?

The size of the bag that you choose is the most important thing to watch out for if you are a petite girl. Proportion would be a good rule of thumb you should remember. Small bags work well for small girls. Choose small bags and wear them close to your body.

If your hips are large.

You would want to try a shoulder bag if you wish to draw attention away from the hip. Choose one with a short strap. The purse can be tucked easily under the arm. The best look for you is a shoulder bag or a hobo bag that hangs slightly but ends well above the hip line.

For those who are top heavy.

You will probably want to draw attention away from your bosom or waist if you are generously endowed on the upper half of your body. A good choice for your body type would be a messenger bag or even a handbag. If a shoulder bag is what you really want, then you should try one that has a long strap and is fairly large in size.

For those who have great curves.

Use a shoulder bag that will end just above the waist because this is the most flattering style for you. In fact, you would only need to avoid the types of bags that are either really big or are really small.

Are you a plus size?

The style of bag that will suit you best would be the ones that are wider in width like a Hobo bag. Small bags are the bags you need to stay away from. A small bag will make you look larger. Bags with short to medium length straps are what you can try to use.
