How to choose a handbag?

It might sound strange to say that different bags will suit different women, but it is true. Depending on your bone size, you may be more suited to a larger or a smaller bag.

The easiest way to test out bone size is to look at your fingers and hands: if they are dainty, you have small bones, if they are verging on looking masculine, they are big bones. So the bigger the bones, the bigger the bag should be.

This also goes for height too. The taller you are, the bigger the bag, the smaller you are the smaller the bag. Although, every women no matter what her height should always have a clutch in her collection.
