Already a long time ago, no woman's image could be imagined without such an irreplaceable accessory as a bag. Without it, every modern woman feels helpless, while with the right bag she turns into the mistress of any situation. Leather goods remain one of the eternal trends in this area.

Features and Benefits

There are many criteria due to which women's leather bags never go out of fashion. In fact, such an accessory has no drawbacks, and all its features can be safely called advantages.

Here are the most frequently mentioned ones:

  • Women's leather bag is always relevant for the reason that it fits literally everything. Perhaps the understanding of the essence of this accessory changes from fashion designer to fashion designer and from year to year, but in general, a handbag made of leather looks equally good with an evening dress, and with a casual style, and with a formal trouser suit.
  • A leather bag is not a cheap pleasure, and ladies, as you know, love expensive things. Such an accessory testifies to a certain success and a rather high status in society, which is pleasant in itself.
  • Leather as a material has tremendous durability, that is, a significant investment in purchasing a bag can be justified if the hostess will use the purchase for several years. As already mentioned, such an acquisition cannot go out of fashion categorically, which means that only its wear and tear, which will become noticeable only after years, can prevent its use.
  • Unlike fabric, leather is practically not exposed to contamination, usually it is enough to simply wipe it to restore it to its original appearance. Taking care of your leather bag is minimal, and even if the product does manage to get dirty in some way, there are ways to remove the dirt.

At the end of the day, a women's leather bag is simply stylish. The idea of ​​such an accessory was inspired by the most outstanding couturiers in the world, that is, choosing a real masterpiece is not a problem. In addition, a huge selection of models and styles will allow you to find something suitable for any, even the most fastidious fashionista.

Types and models

Today there is such a variety of women's leather bags that it is completely impossible to mention all of them. You can only try to walk along the main trends that will not leave indifferent a significant part of the female population.

Let's take a quick look at the main varieties that are popular today:

  • The bag-bag is relatively rare, but immediately attracts attention. Usually these are relatively small accessories, visually really reminiscent of a bag tied on top with a strap so that the contents do not fall out. You can't put a lot in such a bag, but it will definitely work as a cosmetic bag.
  • The bag-package looks very stylish. From a distance, of course, it slightly resembles the accessory that gave it its name, but the nobility of the material and the unique sense of style that the designers reward with make it an extremely popular solution. In particular, the package bag looks great in combination with light summer dresses.
  • The flower bag is an interesting idea of ​​fashion designers, which is rapidly gaining popularity in recent years. This means a very small accessory, the design of which resembles a flower as much as possible, less often - a bouquet that the lady allegedly carries in her hands.
  • The cross-body bag looks stylish and comfortable, that is, the one that is hung over the shoulder. Its main advantage is that the owner's hands remain free, however, the very specificity of such an accessory excludes large sizes.
  • A loincloth bag is somewhat reminiscent of a cross-body - it also leaves hands free, but is worn not over the shoulder, but around the waist. Such a decision is not common, since it requires a certain courage and a subtle understanding of fashion, otherwise the risk of looking tasteless is greatly increased.
  • For those women who often have to try on business suits, clutches are a good option. Outwardly, the clutch looks like an ordinary folder for papers, although, you must admit, a leather folder for documents evokes both a sense of aesthetic admiration and increased confidence in a potential business partner.
  • For those who want to successfully purchase one accessory for all occasions, transformers have been created - special bags that can change their appearance at the request of the hostess. The most common option is when typical classic handbags or bags are equipped with an additional detachable strap that turns the accessory into a cross-body. This is convenient and allows you to combine the same item with a variety of bows.
  • Very unusual accessories - women's leather bags on wheels. Today you will not surprise anyone with a travel bag on wheels, however, when world-renowned designers get down to business, even such a seemingly far from high fashion item can suddenly suddenly manifest feminine features, thanks to which the traveler will remain charming without losing the advantages of a roomy travel suitcase.

And after all, we have considered only popular form factors, but there are other characteristics that separate this particular leather handbag from many others. For example, woven bags made from thinly sliced ​​strips of leather have gained immense popularity in fashion circles.A similar idea, but a slightly different implementation is presented in the form of a bag made of pieces of leather - here the shape and size of individual fragments depend only on the imagination of the creator.

Opposite to them are lacquered leather bags, the perfect smoothness of the surface of which is additionally emphasized by a shiny varnish - such an accessory looks amazing with an evening dress.

The decoration of the accessory is also of great importance. Handbags with appliqués made of a material that differs (at least in color) from the base material are widespread - depending on the image, such a bag can be perceived as a teenager, or quite adult. A combination bag made of leather with inserts from a different material, for example, with wood or with textiles, also looks very trendy.

Varieties of skin

A separate topic when discussing the varieties of a women's leather bag is the type of leather from which it is made. If a girl is a supporter of animal welfare, then there is no reason for her to refuse a leather accessory - just give preference to one made of artificial or eco-leather. In all other cases, preference should definitely be given to handbags made of genuine leather - it has a higher quality in all respects, and it looks nobler.

Another thing is that its different types can have certain characteristics inherent only to them:

  • A crocodile bag is traditionally considered to be something very stylish and expensive - it looks beautiful, but it is not cheap at all. The surface of the material is distinguished by its apparent roughness, individual scales are clearly visible on it, especially if the material is painted in some flashy color.
  • The stingray skin looks stylish and unusual - scales are also visible there, but they are very small and thick, there are practically no gaps between them, which is why black or dark gray bags made of this material seem to be covered with the smallest drops of water.
  • Another fashionable scaly accessory will be a snakeskin bag, however, here the main attraction lies not in scales, but in a specific pattern - snakes are rarely monochromatic, and in the leather industry preference is given to the most beautiful representatives.

  • A bag made of ostrich skin looks very peculiar - traces of feathers are very noticeable on it, and therefore the surface is covered with small uniform pimples. Perhaps this option is not for an amateur, however, it will definitely not go unnoticed by others.
  • A product made of camel leather is already more a tribute to the classics, because such products usually retain their original, classic "leather" color - shades of orange-red or light brown. At the same time, camels are still not found in our area, so such a classic will always be a little foreign.
  • But the calfskin bag will turn out to be exemplary classic - in fact, it was with this that women's leather bags once began. This material will seem less refined than all the others, but it has all the main advantages of leather, is very versatile, and also relatively cheap. In this case, the bag can be made of both raw and boiled leather - in the second case, the surface of the material seems much smoother and softer.

Trying to give the product an atypical texture, designers can drill and sharpen the material to such an extent that perforated leather bags often baffle the consumer with what kind of animal they are made of.

Color and print

Nowadays, the natural leather of many varieties is dyed, and today women's leather bags are no longer necessarily red. The choice of color strongly depends on how and for what purposes you plan to use this accessory.

For example, a black bag is, along with a red one, the most neutral option, it is suitable for all occasions. At the same time, a burgundy, blue, pink or purple leather handbag can look very attractive, but you need to be able to combine them with other wardrobe items. For example, the named colors are bright enough, this will look much better in combination with a summer plain dress, and not with jeans and a plaid shirt. Multicolored bags - those in the design of which there are several colors at once - are relatively rare, and usually these are snakeskin products that simply repeat the original reptile pattern.

You don't often come across a print on a leather bag, but it happens sometimes. Combining the same prints on a purse and a dress is all the rage now, but choosing such an image will take a lot of patience.

Fashionable shape and decor

Modern fashion and the desire to attract attention dictate unusual requirements for the shape and decor of bags, and leather accessories are no exception to the rule. In particular, a round bag has replaced rectangular shapes - it is often veiled under a flower, such a design looks bold and catchy, it is remembered immediately and forever. Another popular solution is triangular bags, the shape of which is a little more practical than that of round ones, but still differs from generally accepted standards. Cylindrical bags have also found a response in the soul of customers, and another unusual design move can be called women's bags, stylized as a backpack.

As for the decor, it can be the most unexpected. We have already mentioned about weaving and assembling a bag from pieces, about combining leather with textiles or wood, as well as about coloring and applying prints, and another fashion trend of recent years is fringe. No one will be surprised by a bag with fringe if it is made of fabric, but today fringe can also be found on a leather bag, which looks quite fresh and unusual.

If we talk about inserts, then a combination of leather with metal details looks like a safe step, which looks a little rough, but this is what attracts.

Brands

A huge number of companies around the world are engaged in the production of leather bags these days, and if some of them make quite trivial accessories, others have a real understanding of high fashion and style. If for you a women's leather bag is not just an accessory for convenient storage and movement of numerous improvised things, but also a way to stand out from the crowd, be sure to pay attention to the products of the following brands.

Prada

This brand is not only worn by the devil - girls with him will also look charming. The brand is known all over the world and is insanely popular, but only available to the elite - imagine what others would think if you have such a bag!

Francesco marconi

This brand is a trademark Italian desire to look stylish always, every day and every minute. On the one hand, such bags made of genuine leather are designed for everyday use, on the other hand, they have a unique charm that will not leave anyone indifferent.

Wanlima

This brand will be a little cheaper, but it looks no less amazing. Its peculiarity is the desire to produce fashionable bags of all possible styles and purposes, in its assortment there are even suitcases, not to mention various handbags.

Of course, this list is far from complete, but let's just say these are the most frequently mentioned manufacturers of women's leather bags.

How to choose?

A leather bag is an indicator of style, therefore, when choosing it, be guided by your knowledge of fashion and sense of style. However, do not forget that leather is also practical, so follow a few simple tips to help you not waste money on a low-quality item:

  • A conscientious manufacturer will not be too lazy to add to the bag a special tag with a sample of the leather from which a particular model is made, not to mention tags with information about the place of production.
  • Natural leather, unlike leatherette, absorbs water well, even if not immediately. This is a good way to make sure you are not buying a regular substitute for a lot of money.
  • Leather as a material is quite expensive, especially if it is a snake, crocodile, and the like. Therefore, a bag made of real leather a priori cannot be too cheap.
  • Since the main material is not cheap, it makes no sense for the manufacturer to save on the lining - in a real leather bag it is usually suede. If the lining is made of obviously cheap fabric, then the leather is most likely fake.
  • No manufacturer entrusts expensive material to workers who do not handle it with care, so a product made of real leather is usually sewn extremely carefully, there are no uneven cuts or protruding threads.
  • High-quality leather is characterized by high elasticity, it can be crumpled as you like, and after that there will be no traces on its surface, while folds and even creases will necessarily form on the surface of the leatherette. Do not think that this is unimportant - in severe frost, the leatherette will crack even without deformation, while the leather will calmly withstand such a test.
  • Natural leather is often recommended to be distinguished by its characteristic smell, but now this advice is not entirely reliable - leather chips are often added to leatherette, which gives it a smell, but not quality. It's another matter if the smell is synthetic - then the skin is clearly artificial.
  • If you want to be completely confident in the quality of the material and do not burn with the desire to understand all the intricacies, do it easier - buy a bag of a world famous brand in a company store, because millions of women have already checked their products before you.

How to care?

Leather is good for its durability and resistance in all conditions, but the right attitude, naturally, can further extend its life. Here are some simple tips:

  • If you don't want to turn your bag into a shapeless bag, try not to overload it, because leather can stretch too, albeit to a lesser extent than other materials.
  • Although leather is considered a material with high water resistance, in fact, it does not repel water by itself, but absorbs, and excess moisture can ruin the product. There are special water-repellent lubricants available - use these to clean your bag.
  • Different types of leather require different cleaning methods, but it is undesirable to use water - just drive the stain deeper. There is no way to wash a leather product without the potential to harm it, so if it gets dirty, it is better to try wiping the surface with a soft woolen cloth with special means for natural leather care, or rubbing it lightly with a brush. In theory, the manufacturer should, complete with the bag, supply instructions for the care of a specific type of material, with all the slightest recommendations.
  • Never dry natural leather next to the battery - this is almost a 100% way to ruin the product!
  • If you've found or heard any advice on skin care, make sure it works for the kind of leather your bag is made of.

Stylish looks

Leather handbags are good for their versatility and compatibility with almost any image, however, there are some generally recognized trends.

In a business style, a leather bag looks good in combination with leather accessories or inserts on clothes. A leather skirt or belt complements the bow well, the main thing here is not to overdo it, so that there is not too much leather.

In everyday use, small black shoulder bags combined with a solid dress in a bright color are very good. For a casual style, a color handbag of a discreet shade in combination with the same colored, but not too bright clothes will be a good solution.

However, these are all - just ideas, not rules, so feel free to experiment!
