Lust-worthy bags you need to set your eyes on

To say women and their handbags go together is pretty much an understatement. Men often try to make sense of this unbreakable bond, but let’s face it, bags maketh the women, whether they’re It girls, celebrities or the fashionistas next door.

To say women and their handbags go together is pretty much an understatement. Men often try to make sense of this unbreakable bond, but let’s face it, bags maketh the women, whether they’re It girls, celebrities or the fashionistas next door.

Handbags serve a multitude of roles for women. The most obvious is for practical reasons — to contain personal items such as a wallet, mobile phone, car keys and cosmetics among others. But equally important, if not more, is that handbags are an extension — or symbol, if you like — of a woman. They’re part of her personal image, status and taste, and a statement of her in a microcosm. And for all that, it is surely worth that dent in your bank account. Here are some lust-worthy bags you need to get your hands on — pronto.

1. TAYLOR SWIFT WITH PRADA’S SAFFIANO CUIR SHOPPING TOTE

Trust Taylor Swift to look sweet yet sophisticated with Prada’s Saffiano Cuir Shopping Tote. The blush nude colour balances out Taylor’s black-and-white striped number, while adding an air of modernity to her get-up. Sassy, Taylor.

2. CARA DELEVINGNE WITH FENDI’S MINI BAGUETTE

Matching your party dress with a Fendi Mini Baguette can add an extra dose of style, as demonstrated by model of the moment, Cara Delevingne. The chain strap detailing of the baguette accessorises the outfit effortlessly.

3. MIRANDA KERR WITH CHLOE’S MARCIE MEDIUM CROSSBODY

What we love about a cross-body bag? One, it can be worn in a couple of ways: Sling it across your body or wear it on your shoulder to maximum effect. Two, you can pick a colour that is pleasing to the eye and goes perfectly with a myriad of outfits. Three, you can never say no to a Chloe bag, as worn here by Miranda Kerr.

4. ROSIE HUNTINGTON-WHITELEY WITH BALENCIAGA’S CLASSIC METALLIC EDGE CITY

Take a chance and invest in this bag during your next shopping trip. Don’t be afraid of ruining the pristine look; a little grime adds a chic ruggedness to it. We love the contrast of Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s mostly-black outfit against her slouchy cool Balenciaga’s Classic Metallic Edge City.

5. KENDALL JENNER WITH SAINT LAURENT’S CLASSIC NANO SAC DE JOUR

The world’s cutest bag award goes to Saint Laurent’s Classic Nano Sac De Jour. Kendall Jenner’s minimalist outfit is immediately jazzed up and complete with this structured bag, which every woman should own.

6. MIROSLAVA DUMA WITH BOTTEGA VENETA’S INTRECCIATO IMPERO AYERS KNOT CLUTCH

When paired with her geometrical-printed get-up, Russian entrepreneur and street-style star Miroslava Duma’s sophisticated kitten — Bottega Veneta’s Knot Clutch — looks extremely fetching in soft metallic tones.

7. ROSIE HUNTINGTON-WHITELEY WITH GIVENCHY’S MICRO NIGHTINGALE

Ah, what we would do to get our mitts on Givenchy’s Micro Nightingale bag. This croc-embossed version worn nicely by Huntington-Whiteley is the bag of our dreams, the colour adding a dash of charm to the beauty’s cool-toned ensemble.

Bags featured available in various colours from Reebonz (www.reebonz.com.sg).
