The history of bags and purses date back to several thousand years ago. Both men and women in early civilisations for the purpose of carrying money and other important items wore them. These came in different shapes and sizes and were made out of cloth, leather etc. The manufacturing and production of bags became far more refined over the centuries. Bags are now used mostly as accessories to compliment a person’s outfit. There are a variety of styles and designs to choose from – cross body, totes, clutches etc. Designers make it a point to be up to date with the latest styles and trends – Prada, Tory Burch, Louis Vuitton etc.
Designer handbags are of very high quality and are also good investments. They may be pricey, but they are worth every buck spent as they are timeless and have a fabulous resale value. These days, it is not even important to visit shops to purchase bags; there are a variety of luxury handbags online. In fact, a wider range of options are available online, as a certain style could be sold out in the stores. Vintage bags are another fetish amongst women, especially people who collect designer handbags; it is like collecting art pieces for them. Vintage bags are also largely obtainable online.
India too has become a big costumer of designer handbags. Online sites like Luxury Station are great platforms to purchase authentic designer bags. There are ranges of designer bags like Prada handbags in India. Online sites such as these, sell both new and pre owned handbags. There are a few tips you should keep in mind while purchasing a luxury handbag – Go through the website and put your finger on the kind of handbag you want – tote, clutch, cross body, sling etc. You must also keep in mind the kind of weather you want to wear it in.
Buying a designer handbag is a smart investment, but is also one of the greatest shopping experiences for a woman. Handbags go with every outfit. If you are purchasing a handbag for the winter season, a nude or a dark colour with a long handle/strap to match with your coats and jackets is a good idea. Spring and summer time is more about colour, and if you are shopping to dress for the hot summer months, you could go in for colours like pinks, oranges, blues etc. If you are a workingwoman, a classic bag is a preferable choice, because firstly they are timeless and secondly, they are simple and match your style in office attire. Designer bags are high maintenance; you must make sure it comes with a bag or box to store it in, ensure that it is not weighed down too much with heavy load, keep it stuffed with paper while it is stored in order to preserve it’s shape, most importantly, if you carry liquids in your purse, put it in a separate pouch in case of any leaks. Designer bags are like pieces of art, so they must be treated as art as well.
