Faux Leather Handbags As Fashion Accessories

By Celia Ayers


Faux leather handbags are bags that a person uses to carry around their belongings. Despite the name, a handbag describes any bag with handles even if it is not carried with the hands. In fact, for convince most bags are carried over the shoulder, across the back or on the forearm. A smaller bag called a clutch purse is carried in the hand without handles.

The word handbag is a general term. It describes any bag with a handle. This type of bag can be worn cross the body, on the shoulder or in the hand. Because of this, their sizes are generally medium to large.

Typically, 8 inches deep and 12.5 inches in length, the miniature tote is a busy woman's alternative to larger bags. The design is so simple; the bag can be dressed up or dressed down. For example, a person can match it with a pair of dress shorts, jeans or work suit.

Many bags are multifunctional. This means a person can change the event and outfit without changing the purse. For example, the Hobo is a casual chic bag that allows a person to go from work to a nightclub or a social event without changing their purse. The only thing the person needs to do is changing their clothes and shoes.

For example, a brief case type of bag is prefect for business meeting, causal lunches or early dinners with colleges. However, it will not complement a little black dress or bandage dress well. It is a bag that is only meant for daywear.

This type of material is not suited for the washer and dryer. Because of this, it is important to prevent as much dirt and staining as possible. Other than holding the bag with clean hands, consider exchanging light colored bags for darker ones when going out to places where drinks or food will be present. Items such as pens, lipstick and markers have a bad habit of staining the interior, it is best to keep them in a smaller bag inside the purse.

Before using a commercial cleaner, do a test spot in an unnoticeable place. Many times, items such a pens and lip-gloss will break open and leak on the inside of the purse. Keeping these items in a separate bag inside of the purse will help to eliminate staining on the inside. When storing the bag, avoid using tissue paper because the paper may attract bugs. Instead, store the bag in a pillowcase or its original dust bag.

Although it is not necessary, try to match the faux leather handbags to the other accessories. Completing the look with a matching pair of shoes will make the handbag will stand out. Even when the bag it not a color match, it can go with the theme of the outfit.
