Like with dresses, no lady can have enough bags in her wardrobe. And there just cannot be an argument on this one. So, here are the 5 bags you need to have in your wardrobe:
Satchel bag
These fit the bill perfectly for working women looking for style and functionality. These are in between a laptop bag and office bag. And stylish to boot! They are designed to carry different items of office use. And you will have space for your laptop and chargers in this. Along with these, all your basics of course! With useful pockets and compartments, you will find it easier to retrieve things, from your lipstick and eyeliner to wet tissues, satchels have storage. That’s why it is a must-have. Found in a variety of colours, this is the first of our list of 5 bags you need to have in your wardrobe.
Sling bag
How can anyone go through a day without a sling? Seeing how versatile they are, they are a fashion must-have. Just look at them ladies. You can choose from casual to bling depending upon the occasion. The cross-body style looks super cool. Slings work for all ages- from a strappy teen to a college student to a busy mommy. And just big enough to fit in bare essentials; they are so easy to carry. Throw in sunglasses, a pouch for your cards, a lip balm, and you are ready to go!
Slings are great when you need both hands free. So ask your outfit planner about the different options you have. Besides, the beauty of owning slings is that they can get stylized easily. A blingy catch or a golden strap will jazz up a regular sling easily. Also you can choose different sizes and materials. Chicisimo offers different suggestions too.

Clutch bag
A clutch spells class all over. A tiny little thing, it gets its name from the way ladies hold it. Yeah, right! You clutch it in one hand while all dressed up for an event. It is not done to carry a bulky bag to some places. Because all you need with you at that time is a clutch. And something that goes with the outfit of your choice. Something dainty and pretty. But just enough to hold a handkerchief at times! Some of them are really tiny though. It is up to you to decide what goes in.
An outfit planner will tell you how essential a clutch is to your wardrobe. As this little accessory carries a lot of weight. Some clutches come with a strap to sling it over the shoulder. And then there is the Minaudiere. It is an embellished clutch, with pearls and gemstones. As grand as it gets really! A Minaudiere gets so striking at times, all you need is a plain solid dress to get the party look right.
Beach bag
A wardrobe is incomplete without a beach bag. Like its name suggests, it has a specific purpose to serve. For general vacations, a shoulder bag is good enough. But a beach is a totally different ballgame. And first things first, your beach bag needs to be waterproof. Now that is a no-brainer, is it not? You will be near the water and in the sand. Any other material will not do for a beach vacay. So while you longingly look at the new bikini, shop for a bag too.
These bags are spacious by design. Because they need to accommodate swimsuits, suntan lotions, sunglasses, sunhats, etc. A few munchies wouldn’t hurt either. And of course towels, big ones at that. And what about that ‘unputdownable’ book you are on right now! Material for beach bags is completely different from our regulars. Bright colours and patterns look great. They add gaiety to the whole outfit. There are options galore online to shop from. So make sure you make space in your wardrobe for one of these.
Shoulder bag
How does one adequately define a shoulder bag? This is the last in out list of the 5 bags you need to have in your wardrobe. It is the everyday essential that any outfit planner swears by. These bags are big and spacious, having a place for everything. And everything means just that – everything! Remember Michelle Pfeiffer’s character in One Fine Day? How she digs out unimaginable stuff and helps her kid out? Yeah, ladies need the shoulder bag to do just that. To conjure up the impossible! Consult Chicisimo for different brands and colour options. And get many of these. They are useful on vacations too. From phones to chargers to sunscreen to memory cards, all goes in. So you need them ladies, really need them.
Like everything else bags change over time. Their size and well as their style. However, basic types remain the same. Before the advent of mobiles, there were no pouches for holding them inside a big bag. Now with mobiles becoming extensions of hands, you NEED this. Otherwise half the time goes searching for it within a bag. Similarly other aspects of bags have evolved with times.
Is it a wonder that ladies have a hard time getting ready? There are too many options for everything. And too much to handle at times!
