So you’ve found those elusive party shoes and a show-stopping outfit, now it’s
time to find that perfect party bag to finish off your festive look. From clutch
bags and cross body to sequin bags and much more, there are so many different
party bags to choose from that it can cause a real dilemma when it comes to
buying one.
Here’s a useful buying guide on what to consider when choosing your new party
bag this festive season.
Colour
Avoid trying to match the colour of your party bag with your outfit, instead if
you want to colour match go for one that is a similar shade to your shoes; it’ll
pull your look together without being over the top. Go for a black, silver or
gold party bag if you don’t want to colour match, it’ll go with pretty much any
outfit colour and you’ll be able to use it again too.
Size
Probably one of the most important aspects to consider (after the colour of
course!), the size of your party bag needs to not be too small or not too big.
Most women prefer a clutch bag because it’s small enough to carry around and has
just enough room for those essentials. If you like to take lots of bits and bobs
on your nights out then a larger party bag like a cross body bag, shoulder bag
or grab bag is probably best; you don’t want to leave your lip gloss behind and
then regret it later in the night.
Detail
If your festive outfit is all about the bling then try not to choose a party bag
with too much detail otherwise it’ll be too much and you won’t make the most of
your look; opt for a simple one instead and let your outfit do the talking. If
you’ve gone for understated and simple this festive season then feel free to add
sparkle with a glitter, jewelled or sequin clutch bag.
Strap
If you’re all about femininity then a classic clutch bag will finish off your
look perfectly, however, if you’re clumsy or forgetful you’ll probably end up
leaving it by the bar so go for a party bag with a strap instead like a shoulder
bag or grab bag. You may even want to take a look at cross body bags that are so
fashionable right now as well as being safe. The beauty about an across body bag
is that you’ll be able to the dance floor without having to dance around your
handbag too.
Price
The festive season is a pricey one so don’t overspend on your party bag – it’s
just not worth it. Set yourself a reasonable budget and try to stick to it,
you’ll be better spending more money on your outfit or shoes rather than your
party bag. Only go over your budget on a party bag if you think you’ll use it
time and time again.
More top tips of buying your perfect party bag:
· A bag with a zip closing is much safer and practical than on open one; it’ll
keep your bits and bobs safe when your throwing shapes on the dance floor.
· Don’t buy the first bag you see, there is so much choice these days that
you’ll probably see another one you like more.
· A party bag with a side pocket will prove useful and practical for keeping
things in you regularly use like your money…or lip-gloss!
· A party bag with an inside zip pocket will give you a safe and secure place to
keep your house keys or your money.
