You have your outfit, you have your shoes, and you have your date, but what about the bag? So often an outfit can be ruined because your bag does not match, or your bag is too small so you can not take the essential make-up emergency kit.
The first thing to consider, when choosing going out bags, is where and for what is this bag going to be used for. If you are going clubbing then you probably will not want a large bag; just something big enough for money, ID and your phone. A little bag like the Dune Liant bag, at very.co.uk, is ideal as it is small but has just enough room and has a secure clasp fastening. In addition it has along strap meaning you can hang it on your shoulder or across your body and then dance away.
If you need a bag for going to the pub then perhaps you want something a little less ‘glitzy’. Perhaps you also want to slip in a book to read on the bus or train on your way there, or some photos from your latest holiday to show your friends. So a bag that has a little extra room is ideal, and can still look sophisticated and not like your every day handbag.
A classic going out bag is the clutch bag. It screams sophistication and works well in most social scenarios. Slip it under your arm and feel like a glamorous lady from the 50’s. The French Connection patent clutch bag at www.very.co.uk is what every girl dreams of. The classic flap over the front with a magnetic fastening combined with the elaborate sequined embellishment makes this bag one for your wish list. The bag also has an inside pocket with a zipped fastening which is perfect for your phone or loose change.
So in a nutshell look for a bag that ticks all the boxes for that particular social event. Also do not forget to colour coordinate. A bright pink bag with a red dress really does not scream pre-planning! ‘
