Best Handbags For Petite Women


We often forget just how integral a part of our wardrobe handbags are. Some of us have one go-to bag, others have a handbag in every color to match their shoes, and the rest of us are somewhere in between. No matter what kind of handbag you're looking for, there are always tips on finding the perfect fit, and your body shape has a lot to do with finding the perfect bag.


When it comes to an everyday bag, small to mid-sized bags are the way to go. Any petite woman can make a tiny handbag or clutch look fabulous. Mid-size bags are also good if you want a more noticeable bag without making yourself too noticeable with an extra-large bag that shrinks your frame. Mid-hanging hobos that fall to the elbow are also flattering to smaller-framed women.


Usually, the last thing petite women want is to look even more petite, which is why oversized bags are generally not a great idea for smaller framed women. As convenient as they are storage-wize, they completely dwarf the petite frame. Instead, compact backpacks or knapsacks in stylish colors and prints may be the way to go, and are now coming back in style. A boho bag may be the best alternative if you're looking for storage but not want to appear over encumbered.


But believe it or not, a "giant" or "oversized" handbag could still work with a petite frame. While smaller-framed women should stray away from bags that are too large for their body, they can still find that oversized-style in scaled down versions. While they may not be as large as their counterparts, they still retain the same look while not overwhelming a petite frame entirely. What it all comes down to is proportion. No matter what a persons' body shape or frame shape, finding the right bag that fits you proportionally is still a unique factor; we're all different! Regardless of the style, it's always best to try on handbags as you would a shirt or pants.


Even though it may be "your size", one style does not fit all, and trying on accessories is just as important as trying on the ensemble they are accompanying! Finding the perfect handbag can also depend on what the occasion is for. Think of what outfits you might be wearing with the handbag in question and be sure to wear those sorts of clothes when you search for and try on handbags to ensure the best fit.
