When considering a handbag, we may also want to consider the message it sends out to others. There is a bag out there to send any message you want – but first you need to decide what that message is. Here are a few favorite samples – though I am sure you can come up with more!
Designer Bag
Designer bags usually look very professional, organized, and stylish. They send a message of being together and classy. They can also convey a sense of wealth. Sometimes the message is subtle. Occasionally, the meaning is very obvious. Much depends on the bag, the designer and how obvious the logos are. Some feel that if the logo is too obvious it is an attempt to grasp on the designers name instead of your own. So there is a whole game of psychology. We recommend something classy and stylish. If there is a logo that is obvious – that too needs to look sophisticated rather than blatant.
Supporting A Cause
Totes that support a cause show that you are caring and help others. If you are buying a reusable bag for the grocery store or other shopping adventures, we love well made bags that can take the wear that a shopping bag needs to handle. Our favorite is the feed bag just because it feeds a child school lunches for a year. That is pretty impressive! The tote that started this article was a tote with a penguin that said save our poles. It was a nice enough bag but looked very dingy from wear. This feed bag hides the wear and will last much longer!
Practical Bag
A well made practical bag can show that you are practical with money yet chose a well made purse that will last. Having lots of compartments means that organization is easy. Sometime just having a bag that looks nice and is useful is exactly what you want! It often doesn’t have some of the bells and whistles but what you see is what you get… and you can get a good value if you shop well!
