Women's Handbags - Don't Buy Any Other Fashion Handbags Until You've Secured These 6 Essentials!

There are 6 types of versatile women's handbags that make sure you always have a bag to carry no matter outfit. In this way you'll save money on unnecessary fashion handbags that you'll only wear once or twice. They are any woman's must-owns that should be purchased before any other bag styles. Not to mention that they are:

- Basic and keep you covered on all occasions

- Easier to mix and match

- Cost-effective because you can wear them with everything

- Trend-proof as you'll never "out of style"

Simply put, you can never go wrong with them!

So before you start shopping to update your handbag-collection, make sure you have these first:

Leather Everyday Shoulder Bag

Perfect for carrying all of your important belonging from Monday to Friday. Versatility is the key to making it easier to blend in with your outfits, so pick a leather handbag in basic and solid colors such as black and dark brown. The right everyday bag should be big enough to carry all of your stuff, so pick a style that can accommodate everything.  Look into stylish designs like large hobo, satchel and tote. The quality is also crucial if you want it to handle your things without breaking it down, so look for high quality leather (genuine or faux, it doesn't matter).

Evening Purse

It keeps you covered on all special occasions. You can never go wrong with two small evening clutches in black and white. Black works as an all-arounder, while the white looks light and gorgeous with your summery dresses. If you don't like carrying a clutch in fear of losing it or thieves snatching it, then pick an evening purse with a thin strap, however a chain strap is even better as it won't snap.

Cross Body Bag

The beauty with cross body bags is that they won't interfere with whatever you're doing. From shopping, going out, lunching to traveling, they simply are practical fashion bags that keep your hands free and help you keep focus on enjoying whatever you're doing. They're perfect for slipping in your wallet, cell phone, makeup bag, keys and other important things.

Shopping Bag

Dump those nasty plastic bags and go for reusable shopping bags. Save our earth and hide where you've been shopping. Make sure you wash them regularly to avoid contamination.

Travel Bag

A must when you're spending a weekend somewhere. It also works as your carry-on bag in addition to your main luggage when traveling. Go for something stylish made of leather or if you prefer something practical try a travel bag with wheels. It should be a little bigger than your everyday bag.

Travel Luggage

It should definitely be bigger than your travel bag. If you hate those large suitcases that lack personality and stylishness, then I suggest you go for designer brands such as Diane von Furstenberg, which is my fave. It's chic, affordable and won't embarrass you. For practicality go for expandable luggage. You might also want to try something that sets it apart from the rest like a pink luggage or something with prints and splashy colors on. It makes it easier to spot if it ever gets stolen or taken by someone else by mistake.

These are the 6 women's handbags that you should secure before you buy new bags. What do you think?
