Finding the right bag, the one that sums up your personality, that accompanies your active life and your needs for representation, is not easy, especially if it’s not for you.<\/p>\nJulien Fourni\u00e9<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

What luxury bags<\/a> should you buy in 2024?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are a few principles in the form of tips to enlighten you and help you choose among luxury bags for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
Choosing among luxury bags, tip 1<\/h6>\n\n\n\n
\u2192 Choosing a handbag to suit your body type<\/h6>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

A handbag is above all a volume and a container, so what shape should you choose?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

We tend to think that large, oversized bags are reserved for tall, slender women, while mini-bags are more suited to smaller women. But that’s not true!<\/p>\nJulien Fourni\u00e9<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Some giant bags, such as the besace, cartable or tote bags<\/a>, can be adapted to a wide range of body shapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They can hide a curvaceous figure by drawing the eye to their material or color. They can also accentuate the curve that flatters a silhouette.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Some micro-bags, such as minaudi\u00e8re, pochette, clutch<\/a>, saddle and shoulder bags, can easily become a major asset to a fashionable silhouette.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Very easy to hold, handbags easily become an offshoot of the body, enhancing the slenderness of a wrist, enhancing a shoulder or highlighting the cut of a jacket<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A well-chosen bag, tailored to each individual’s needs, becomes the primary identifier of allure.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
Choosing among luxury bags, tip 2<\/h6>\n\n\n\n
\u2192 Choosing your handbag material<\/h6>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

In the context of heightened awareness of ecology and sustainable development, how do you choose the material for your handbag?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

It’s essential to take an interest in its manufacture and its quality grade.<\/p>\nJulien Fourni\u00e9<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Coated canvas bags<\/a> are extremely sturdy, provided they are made according to traditional craftsmanship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Opting for natural, solid and durable materials is also a guarantee of eco-responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even if you love animals, it’s important to remember that leather is a natural material. Most of the time, it is used to recycle skins rejected by the food industry (for calves, lambs, cows, etc.). Above all, leather is biodegradable when properly processed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In short: yes to classic leathers, yes to fancy leathers and even, depending on your sensibilities, yes to exotic<\/a> leathers with traceability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And don’t forget the sensual touch!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

From a purely aesthetic point of view, a beautifully crafted leather will see the years (and your caresses) give it a silkier feel, a fascinating patina and a vintage look that will become more pronounced. Finally, leather can be embroidered for a luxurious effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plunged lambskin, calfskin or natural cowhide, Nappa and certain precious leathers are extremely durable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some leather treatments can give it even greater longevity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crispy leather, grained leather<\/a>, coated leather, varnished leather or embossed leather: these treatments not only give leather a strong hand, but also a new, unusual and trendy look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some iconic bags can even become heirlooms passed down through the family like a talisman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’ve seen grandmothers give their favorite handbag to their granddaughter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And they wear it as a token of elegance and mutual affection.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u2192 How to choose the color of your handbag<\/h6>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n
\n

It’s easier to choose a color for a bag than for a garment, which allows for a certain audacity.<\/p>\nJulien Fourni\u00e9<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Urban purists swear by black. In this case, it’s the bag’s texture, shape and metallic<\/a> finish that give it its charm. In fact, we’ve seen sublime, classic crossbody day bags adorned with chains or topstitching for a fashion-forward effect. Not to mention exotic skins<\/a>, embroidery <\/a>or even feathers<\/a>, which give the bag its uniqueness, even if it’s black.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Warm colors such as chocolate<\/a> and natural hues are also great classics. These tones blend easily with any look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beiges<\/a>, taupes and nudes often look great on bags. They are eye-catching when worn with a dark outfit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But be careful! It’s important to look at the vibrancy of a beige or nude color according to your skin tone.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Choosing a strong color<\/a>, such as green, fuchsia or even red<\/a>, is a real statement: “Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I don’t carry everyone’s bag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You don’t impose a color on yourself just because it’s “trendy”. You choose your own color.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An orange immediately reveals your inner energy and vitality. Powder pink<\/a> or bubble gum will give a clue to your sweetness and cheekiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where azure blue<\/a> defines you as a dreamer, ruby or Ferrari red immediately shows your flamboyance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is no right color. There’s only the color you choose, the color of your aura that you want to highlight.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
