January is the ultimate month of evaluation; At the start of a brand new year, it’s common to think about our lifestyles and the wardrobe that supports it. Shopping the right designer bag will not only elevate your existing wardrobe for the new year, but also continue to serve it for years to come!
What to Consider Before Buying A Designer Bag
Do NOT be impulsive. Designer Bags are an investment piece. Meant to be cherished over time, the goal is clear: We’re looking for an anti-trend piece that supports your wardrobe with unlimited wearability.
Consider your budget. The price of designer bags varies, so it’s best to decide on a budget before considering your options.
Consider the “end goal”. What are you using your bag for, and where? Figure out where you’re using the bag (at work, special occasions, shopping on weekends, etc.) and what you need to fit inside the bag (wallet, keys, phone, tablet, etc.).
Does it fit your lifestyle? Does your “end goal” for the bag truly support the needs within your lifestyle? Will you utilize the bag in a way that will warrant the cost?
Review the specs of the bag. Review the sizing, quality, pockets, straps and closures. Read customer reviews on the bag so that you’re familiar with both positive and negative features.
Consider your wardrobe. Stick to neutral colors that pair well with your existing wardrobe and fit within your Color Season.
