Latest Handbag Styles and Types – Totes, Clutches, Satchels & Hobo Bags

Fashion doesn’t stop with dresses, blouses, skirts and slacks. Having the right handbag is just as important in a woman’s wardrobe as any other apparel item. It’s more than an accessory since it can be a signature piece or a fashion statement.

Since most women have multiple-layered lives, they own more than one handbag for the different roles they play. Moms of young children are likely to have a tote for carrying around an endless supply of snacks, books and toys. Young, twenty-something women are likely to have the bag de jour – whether it’s a cross-body satchel or hobo style bag. Business women may carry a satchel, tote or briefcase-style carryall.
Tote Style Handbag

The tote bag is typically square or rectangular shaped. It can be made in a variety of materials, including canvas, nylon, leather or any other durable fabric. It has an open top with handles that can be worn on the crook of the arm or shoulder.

Tote bags come in all price ranges, from discount to high-end designer. Some of the brands of tote bags include:

    * Juice Couture
    * Dolce & Gabbana
    * Mossimo
    * Michael Kors

Hobo Handbag

Hobo bags have unstructured, crescent shaped styling with a strap that can be worn over the shoulder. Sometimes the strap is adjustable. They may come with a zippered, snap or flap closure.
