Which handbag do you prefer?

I like hobos, shoulder bags and crossbodys. They usually are carefree and easy to use. If I am just going anywhere by car and I know that I don't have to carry my bag I will also use a top handle.

Some of my favourite bags combine more styles, such as the Speedy B or the Prada Saffiano Lux Tote bn2274 with the shoulder strap. I love versatility in a bag!

For strolling - shoulder or body bag
For special occasions/dinner date - coin purse

A shoulder/satchel bag with crossbody function.

 

[Puttin On Ayers]

Hobo, shoulder and satchel in that order.

 

[Penelope G]

Crossbody, satchel, tote and shopper. Mostly, I like satchels or totes that can be converted to crossbody bags when needed!

 

[lenarmc]

Shoulder bags and satchels for everyday as long as they are small-medium. Cross body bags for going to my kids' sporting events. Clutches for church and date nights.

Bowler/satchel...handheld/shoulder bag is my favorite and it's taken me many years and bags to figure it out!
Great thread, OP!

I love them all....if I had to choose I need a tote and a cross body.

 

[dooneybaby]

I prefer a very structured tote.

 

[rainrowan]

Simple roomy tote with thin or rolled straps is most practical for me although I prefer the look of a semi-structured satchel (not always practical)

 

[LVk8]

Satchel & crossbody are my top 2. Even better, a satchel with a crossbody strap!

I am all about the shoulder bags even though I'm trying to train myself to like tote and top handles more - I think they look so chic!
