THE handbag is the most hardworking accessory in a woman‘s wardrobe. It holds all your valuables, day-to-day items and even unsorted receipts and what-nots. In many cases, it amps up your style too.
Let‘s face it. When it comes to handbags, one is never enough. But, often, the extra handbags are left in the wardrobe to gather dust. Sometimes you even wonder why you bought them in the first place!
Below are our picks of the five types of handbags you will need for daywear, retailed at Sometime By Asian Designers, a bag specialist that co-designs with selected Asian designers and fashion icons.
All the handbags are made from high quality synthetic leather and are available at www.sometime.asia for less than RM200 each.
THE SHOULDER BAG
Sometime For Zalora
A shoulder bag should be your daily go-to accessory. Choose a sleek piece in a size that suits your body frame.
(Note: This doubles up as a stylish tote bag too).
THE CASUAL DAY BAG
Sometime By Nicole W (Niko-Niko)
A casual day bag is a reflection of your personal style and personality. It can be anything from this bucket bag to a studded sling bag, a hobo with heavy embellishments or a quirky-looking clutch.
THE CROSSBODY
Sometime For Poplook (mini)
Looking into a handbag that allows you freedom of movement? The crossbody is definitely a chic choice. Choose a piece in medium size, with a sturdy strap.
THE DAY SATCHEL
Basta by Alia Bastamam
This should be your ultimate handbag for work. Choose a piece made from a durable material and in a neutral shade or earthy tone that will complement your work outfit. A branded option can boost your professional style too.
THE TRENDY TOTE
Sometime For Poplook (soho Timberwolf)
Size and space matter when choosing a tote. Pick a rugged, durable canvas tote as your workhorse bag for weekends and save a nice, lightweight piece for that casual hangout time.
