Expression, security, fashion- why choosing a handbag is so important

As you have seen in my previous post a handbag is a must have investment buy. Spending the money on a fabulous handbag is something you will never regret. Handbags are an element of not only security with only you knowing what you have inside, but in contrast expose your personal style and inner personality. A bag for every occasion ensures that you will always feel good about yourself as well as looking chic and glamourous. 

The 3.1 Phillip Lim collection is the epitome of perfection when it comes to handbags. The colours, styles and quality are any girls dream. After all a handbag is one of the most important wardrobe pieces you can buy and has the ability to change the impact of an outfit.

A bag for ...
Work

3.1 Phillip Lim Pashli Satchel £740

When choosing a handbag for work go for a dark colour, notice I say dark and not black. Although black is totally chic and I am a lover of the colour, experimenting and pushing the boundaries is a little more exciting. Bold but darker colours give the impression of sophistication however are still light enough for everyone to appreciate all the magnificent features, something a completely black handbag may lack. Make sure the inside of the bag is big enough for you to comfortably fit all your items in. The great thing about this bag is if you have plans for after work it has equally the same fabulous impact so need to switch.

Shopping

 3.1 Phillip Lim Pashli Satchel £740

A girls favourite past time? I think so. Here is where you can have lots of fun with colour and shape. I am in love with this bold yellow at the moment. No, it may not go with all outfits however have you never heard of colour clashing this season? plus how out there will your outfit be for shopping? 

This handbag is my favourite from the collection.

Going out

                                          3.1 Phillip Lim Leopard Clutch, £380

This is where the fun begins. Going out is the perfect opportunity to experiment and step outside of your comfort zone and there isn't a better way to do this than animal print. You have to be careful with animal print to ensure you that you pull it off in the right way and do it justice as it can easily look trashy when not styled proper. This clutch is simple and has no embellishment which gives off a mature and classy look meaning you can dress understated and subtle or dress it up with adding accessories to your ensemble. The print gives this handbag character and shows your edgier and more seductive style.

Travel

3.1 Black Leather Scout Hobo bag, £1125

For those of you who are constant jetsetters you will not find a bag that is anymore perfect than the black leather scout. The size of this bag just right and the effortless design is both practical and stylish. I love black leather and in particular the gold structuring on this bag. More importantly this bag would go with simply anything even if you are stepping off the plane in sweats. This is an example of worthwhile investment purchasing, a bag you will use time and time again but has all the elements and features you look for in a bag that isn't for practical use. The purposeful design of this bag is both imaginative and exception.

Shop the 3.1 Phillip Lim collection at Avenue 32, for bags that will fulfill any girls dream. Enjoy darlings!
