Top 5 Most Often Carried Handbags
by: Cathy Feldman
Handbags have become the most popular accessory on the market and there’s no reason to wonder why. There are so many styles and trends to choose from that it’s hard for a woman to choose just one handbag. Each outfit calls for a different type of handbag so it’s hard to distinguish which types are most popular. In order to help you determine which types of handbags are in style right now, I have compiled a list of the top five most often carried handbags. You do not have to choose one of these as the type of handbag you’re going to carry but use this as a guideline illustrating which are in fashion at the moment:
1. Shoulder Bag – A shoulder bag comes in many different sizes and shapes. They are usually larger, providing more space for essentials such as your wallet, books, makeup etc. Shoulder bags are meant only to be worn over the shoulder and provide a combination practicality and style in one handbag.
2. Handheld Handbag – Handheld handbags are handbags which are designed to be held in the hand and no other way. They are usually smaller and provide less space than a shoulder bag. The difference between this form of bag and a clutch is that a handheld bag usually has a strap or handles. These types of bags are best suited for shopping or cruising around town.
3. Back Pack – Back Packs are very popular bags which are most beneficial to students of all ages. Back packs have two straps which make them better suited for carrying since there is a balance of pressure of both sides of your shoulders and back (as opposed to just one with most handbags).
4. Tote Bag – Tote bags are very popular because they are casual yet very practical. These bags usually fall in the middle of the body, around the elbow. They are big and provide a lot of space for the user. They usually only have one or two compartments and are available with a number of images on them or a simple solid color.
5. Clutch - A clutch is a handbag which does not have handles and is meant to be carried in the hand. That said they are usually quite small and only provide enough space for the bare essentials which you will need. These bags can be casual or dressy and are often worn to parties or nightclubs because they are so small and efficient.
The handbag you choose will depend on your style and your personal preference. As a woman you will probably feel the need to change the style of handbag you carry on a regular basis. The style of handbag differs each day depending on where you are going and which type would be best suited for the occasion. Have fun with your handbag and let your personality show through the style you choose.

I Love The Nightlife ? Lauren Merkin Handbags
I Love The Nightlife ? Lauren Merkin Handbags
by: Teresa Camacho
Lauren Merkin handbags are a fabulous retro throwback to the era of the 70's nightlife and a laissez-faire attitude that existed in all merrymaking.
They can make the transition from an evening out at the new Asian-fusion sushi and sake bar to all the holiday parties of the season with no stops in between.
With the addition of one of these handbags, an outfit will stand out and get one noticed at any event because the assortment of colors and textures - metallic lambskin, velvet, embossed snakeskin and studded leather - pair up well with the season's hottest bohemian looks parlayed down the runways of Milan fashion week.
The bags are all whimsically named.
There are bags such as the Valeri and Belle which are a bit more serious but with a lightness that one can carry throughout the day from the office and perhaps into evening.
Though why stick...

The popularity of designer handbags is at an all-time high.
Everywhere we look, from the high street to the nightclub, everyone is carrying a trendy new purse.
It seems that we are often so preoccupied with our new handbags that we tend to forget about the people behind the designs.
I started trying to develop a shortlist of my favorite designers, but I realized that I am in love with the work of far too many to list.
The following are just a few of my favorites.
Chloe is, by far, one the greatest design houses in the world.
I absolutely love their work!
At times, I feel that some of the French designers are a little over the top?but where would true fashion be without their sense of creativity and innovation.
Chloe has been a leader in the world of fashion, especially since the Stella McCartney assumed the helm.
Her star...
