What is a woven leather handbag?

How to wear it?

The advantage of handbag worked in this way, is that it is easy to carry. Yes, it’s all the subtlety of a woven leather bag. It pairs easily with virtually any outfit and style. Just pay your attention to four points (which is valid for all types of bags):

- The size of your bag must be adapted to your body shape: large bags for large and/or round ones; small bags for the little ones. By following this rule, you will prevent your bag from taking up too much space or disappearing into space.

- The color of your bag should work well with the rest of your outfit and the season of the year. On this subject, you can find all the information and advice on colors to wear for spring-summer 2015 in our article “Handbags, scarves, belts…, what color to choose for spring-summer 2015?” .

– You must, as far as possible, opt for a noble material when choosing your bag. We therefore avoid imitation leather and opt for leather to avoid the “cheap” effect.

- The shape of your bag. Messenger bag, pouches, basket…you absolutely must make your choice based on your outfit and the location you frequent.

With the braided bag, you will see it for yourself: there will rarely be room for fashion faux-pas. It is a bag that inspires class, chic and elegance. And this feeling carries over to your outfit whatever your look.
