Off to a gala dinner, a corporate event or a party with friends? Your look can be incomplete without the right handbag. It is not just an accessory, but a true statement that can add luxury to even the simplest outfit. How do you find the perfect one?

Novyny.LIVE has an answer for you.

Why do you need an evening handbag?

While a daytime bag usually holds a charger, a notebook, and a bunch of other stuff, an evening bag is simpler: minimum stuff — maximum style. A small clutch should only have room for the most important things: a phone, a card, lipstick and keys. But most importantly, it should complement your look, making it more elegant and sophisticated.

Clutch is a classic 

A miniature clutch is a timeless option that goes with any dress. Its main advantage is its versatility. Laconic styles in black, nude or metallic tones are ideal for those who want to look stylish without drawing too much attention to the accessory. And if you want a little festive sparkle, look for options with textured elements, decorative inserts or stones.

Style and convenience

If you plan to do a lot of socializing at the event and don't want to be holding the bag all the time, take a closer look at styles with a long strap or chain. Not only is it comfortable, but it also adds sophistication to your look. By the way, a handbag on a chain looks especially impressive with evening gowns and suits.

Size matters

For an evening out, it is important to choose a compact handbag. Huge styles, while practical, can be inappropriate and detract from the overall proportions of your look. The best option is one that holds only the essentials.

Color and style

To be sure, you can choose a bag to match your shoes or accessories. Win-win options include black, nude, silver or gold. If you want to make a statement, look for handbags with sequins, rhinestones or metal detailing for a festive look.
