What handbag to wear with a jacket?

Handbag and jacket, a few rules

If the style of a handbag depends on your tastes, its comfort depends on the cut of the jacket! A handle that rubs on zipped pockets, a shoulder strap that damages fabrics, a buckle that hooks a cotton jacket... To choose the right bag, analyze your jacket:neither it nor the bag should be subject to repeated friction, risk to cling or knock. If you like shoulder bags, the risk of chafing is greater, beware of fragile areas and the length of the jacket. Are you looking for a bag that evolves with your jacket changes, all-purpose during the day, chic in the evening, practical for going dancing? Choose as much as possible a bag with handles and removable shoulder strap, satchel type with flap. And if you opt for the clutch, prefer the miniature for the slender silhouettes, XXL for the luscious! As for choosing a handbag that crosses trends and seasons, bet on quality materials, a style that suits you and a capacity adapted to your needs:the heavier the content, the stronger the bag must be. Jackets usually only have small pockets, make up for it!

If you have opted for the leather jacket, no question of moving away:the handbag will be in leather, too. Match the quality of the bag to that of the jacket, in order to avoid too visible a difference in leather, and work on the rock details, from the zips to the rivets, from the buckles to the hooks. The favorite of the perfecto? The distressed leather messenger bag!
