Bags on a Budget

HANDBAGS: THEN AND NOW

noreply@blogger.com (handbag junkie) — Mon, 18 Aug 2008 12:32:00 +0000

From Times Tamara Kaminsky

1920s: The flapper flaunts her new freedom by going out unchaperoned at night with a slim line clutch, ideal for holding, lipstick and cash.

1930s: Bags get more structured and slightly larger to cope with women’s increasing demands outside the home.

1940s: Bags become ultra-functional satchel shapes in durable leather slung across the body.

1950s: Let them wear alligator: after Dior’s luxurious, teeny pouches, bags become increasingly status conscious. Princess Grace of Monaco tries to hide her pregnancy from photographers with her Hermès bag. A legend — and the first bag with a name, the Kelly — is born. Coco Chanel introduces the 2.55, a quilted bag with a chain that can double up as jewellery.

1960s: Towards the end of the decade the hippy trip and relaxing morals usher in ethnic bags that are as slouchy as the bra-less women carrying them.

1970s: Broke but resourceful, British women embrace the patchwork shoulder bag.

1980s: A brief flirtation with men’s briefcases gives way to the revival of the Chanel 2.55 (and countless fakes), a bag that allowed the new power woman to flaunt her success.

1990s: Rejection of Eighties values (sort of) inspires women to pay hundreds of pounds for a black nylon “anti-design” rucksack from a small Italian label called Prada. Tom Ford takes over at Gucci: the bag gets sexy.

2000s: With accessories accounting for 60 to 80 per cent of many fashion brands’ business, designers aren’t dropping the golden goose anytime soon. Bags ARE fashion for many women, and are currently the size of a skirt.

Coach Handbags – Real or Fake, the know-how

COACH designer handbags mahogany colored leather soho swing pack F40576 designer purses

The Internet is a great place to buy things. You can get just about everything off the Internet. One of the things that many women are turning to the online world for is clothing and accessories. One of the most popular items to buy online is a cheap Coach handbag. However, with any good saying, comes the bad?

As the popularity and ease of purchase has been made through the Internet, a lot of people are looking to make a quick buck and are selling fake coach handbags. So how do you know if your Coach handbag is a fake? Here are a few things to look for.

First off, buy from a reputable source. There are some places where you can buy great authentic handbags, and those places would be authentic authorized bag resellers, the actual Coach store online, and of course eBay. The key thing to look for when you're choosing a reputable source is that the person selling the bag will guarantee it. The important thing about buying on eBay, is that they have a high reputation, and you can inspect the feedback from all of the buyers.

If someone was a scam they will not last long on eBay. When you buy your hand bag, make sure the bag is stated as being authentic. Some stores will have an area of for knock off handbags and a separate one for real ones. Make sure you are in the right section of the online store. Just because it is expensive does not mean it is authentic.

Ebay and many other auction sites no longer allow people to sell fake handbags, so it can be little bit easier to be comfortable with what you're buying.

Inspect the interior. The inside of the handbag can tell you a lot about how well it was made. A real top Coach handbag is perfectly constructed inside and out. Because of the high standards, any flaws never make it to the sales floor.

The stitching will be perfect and everything will appear seamless and perfect everywhere on the bag, including inside all the pockets. Most cheap knock offs do not take the time to do a good job on interior stitching. This is one of the easiest ways to tell this by looking inside. Of course, if you're going to buy online it’s going to be tough to do so, but many sellers take pictures of the inside and the outside.

Inspect the exterior. This is getting harder to do as fake purse makers are getting better and better at making imposter bags. A lot of knock offs now use real leather, even the good stuff. But there are still things you can check. Take a look at the zipper. Coach handbags are made with the sturdiest zipper available.

When you look at the stitching, all of this that she should be very even. All the seams should line up perfectly, and all of the material cuts should line up just right. If you get any sense that the balance of the bag is off, or something looks suspicious then you probably have a fake handbag. One of the biggest telltale signs of a cheap handbag is the patterns of the -C-. The curves around the letters should be even and smooth, many fake Coach Handbags have a jagged look around the letter. If you are getting any of that or you're seeing any of that and you should walk away. All Coach Handbags also have serial numbers. You should be able to ask to inspect the serial number.

The last tip in getting a good handbag is to consider buying the same way that Craig’s list suggests. If you going to buy a used handbag and this are something that you are new to, buy local. That way, you can actually meet up with the person and take a look at the bag live. If the person looks suspicious then you probably got a problem. Many women who are selling are used Coach Handbags so that they can fuel their new handbags will have the receipt and can tell you all about the history of the bag.

Efashionhouse has a collection of coach handbags that are genuine. We also carry Coach Accessories. We also carry look-alike discounted designer handbags under the section ValueHandbags. Some are available in genuine leather.

The price is right

It's better than Sex And The City - shopping in the summer sales.

Not even the downpours could dampen the spirits of the capital's shoppers who hit the city's stores as the first of the summer sales began. And heavy showers, credit crunches and thrifty purses couldn't combine to placate the hordes of hungry shoppers who converged on Dublin's major department stores.

The major outlets are only too aware of the supposed recession as they fight with competing discounts to try to attract an army of shoppers who should be otherwise tightening their belts. Today is officially the day that the city has been advertising as the start of the summer sales, but some got off the starting block early. Champion Sports launched their sale last week, offering up to 50pc off premier sports brands. And, yesterday, three of Dublin's major Department Stores, Arnotts, Clery's and Debenhams, launched their sales, offering bargains of up to 70pc off their clothing, up to 50pc off shoes and accessories and discounts on electrical goods and homewares.

Not to be outdone, Brown Thomas are starting their sale on Saturday at 8am. Over 500 people were in the door of Arnotts on Henry St within 10 minutes of its opening at 9am. Queues had formed outside since the early hours of the morning as shoppers had waited on the street to get their hands on the first bargains and to be in with the chance of winning winning a designer Natuzi couch, a 32-inch Philips TV or a Sealy Millionaire double bed.

Upstairs on the women's fashion floor in Arnotts, fashionistas were working themselves into a frenzy over the huge discounts on some of the world's most wanted fashion lines.

Gorgeous

The most desirable bargain on the second floor was undoubtedly a gorgeous Nicole Miller maxi dress, like that which Angelina Jolie was pictured wearing in Cannes recently. It is reduced by 40pc from €935 to €561.

Tracey Reece, a favourite designer of Beyonce, was also on sale with 40pc reductions, as was Vivienne Westwood, and hot designer BCBG Max Azria. New York label Twelfth Street was also offering 50pc off with a gorgeous little black dress on sale reduced from €310 to €115.

Across the road in Debenhams, there was plenty on offer too, as bargain thirsty women tossed tops and skirts to the floor and left rails in disarray in the hunt for the perfect purchase. Brides-to-be could get their hands on wedding dresses by Pierce Fionda for just €50, one reduced from €620, another reduced from €315.

But if you've already walked down the aisle and are in domestic bliss, Debenhams are offering Dyson vacuum cleaners reduced from €434 to €279 and a special offer of a top brand Delonghi kettle and free toaster for just €62.

Of course the men aren't forgotten at sale time either, with 30pc off formal wear in Arnotts, or, more importantly, if you want to buy the woman in your life something, there's always the option of 50pc off Elle McPherson Intimates.

Fashion on a Budget - Designer handbags, clothing and shoes

Never pay full price again. We'll find you the best online shops for your budget buys!

By Woody Lee

There has been a lot of talk about the economy lately and the forecast isn't looking too good which means it's time to start looking at ways to tighten the budget and cut back on the things you don't absolutely need. Though the thought about going without might seem grim at first, there is a silver lining when it comes to shopping. Just because you have less to spend on fashion doesn't mean you have to stop trying completely, following is a list of tips that help the budget fashionista in all of us keep looking fabulous.

Clothing
I thought starting off with the most obvious wardrobe item was a good way to kick off the list especially since a lot of us have already started thinking of spring wear, plus shopping for clothing on a budget is often the easiest. Although no one likes to worry about the economy, one positive result is retailers know that consumers are holding onto their money tighter than before, so they are more willing to hold sales and make higher decreases to entice consumers to spend. Here's a great way to take advantage of dropping prices but still come out with the stuff you want:

Be a savvy sale shopper: I already mentioned how you might notice more sales and promotions from retailers in an effort to boast slow profits, so as a savvy shopper it pays off to know when your favorite store is holding a 'secret sale' (join a mailing list or befriend the sales staff to become a VIP), end-of-season sales (household names like Banana Republic and Macys hold seasonal sales where items are 40% off), watch for the buy-one-get-one-half off type of coupon sales because you can buy the non-sale item you've been eyeing and get another item half off.

Shop online: Even the most experienced shopper can find it daunting to keep up with the sale schedule at their favorite stores which is why shopping online has become so popular. Gone were the days where you weren't sure of your size or if something looked good, most online shops allow for easy returns. But it's better to know the types of clothes you look good so you won't have to mail back a bunch of returns. The best part about shopping online is that often times you can find the same brands at cheaper prices because an online retailer doesn't have to pay for retail space. If you don't believe me, I found Rachel Pally dresses at 50% off at DesignersLA.com or check out ShopBop and click on the 70% off sale section (you'll be amazed at what you see). Plus if you sign up for your favorite e-tailers email list, you'll get even more savings with sale announcements and coupon codes sent right to your inbox. What's easier than that?

Invest in classics: Though sale shopping can result in a ton of savings, to really save money try not to buy something you won't end up wearing just because it is on sale. Sure a designer label pink suede skirt at 80% off is a great deal but if it's hot outside or pink suede isn't in style when the weather cools, you've wasted money that could have been used toward something you'll wear again and again. Trends are always fun but invest in a couple of classics that can take you through an entire season. I'm thinking white wide-leg pants and a yellow dress but you can pick your favorite spring staples.

Vintage: If the thought of secondhand shops scares you than you haven't been shopping at the right vintage store. Vintage can be ultra-hip and you'll be surprised to see what you find in the right vintage store. Make sure to find one that offers items in good condition and reasonable prices (some are actually expensive) and go hunting for shift dresses, capris and 50's style blouses that have been seen in all the fashion magazines. Plus there are even some great online vintage shops (JillsConsignment and LuxuryVintage) that carry amazing stuff in awesome condition.

Handbags and Accessories
It doesn't matter if there are tough times or not, fashionistas are constantly on the lookout for bargains on designer handbags. The good thing is that a good designer handbag has a much longer run than designer clothing because if you invest in the right designer purse or designer jewelry you can wear it for many months as opposed to changing up your clothes due to trends and weather conditions. And even though designer "it" bags cost more than ever, the average designer label handbag costs $2k, I've done my homework and found ways to score a hot designer bag, designer jewelry or accessory from Prada, Gucci, Tod's, Chloe, Anya Hindmarch, Marc Jacobs, Yves Saint Laurent, Valentino, Burberry, and even Chanel at up to 70% off retail. Don't believe me, see for yourself:

Shop online: As with shopping for clothing, shopping online for designer accessories can really pay off. Unlike clothes, you don't have to worry about how an item will fit because most reputable sites will list the exact measurements and provides photos from all angles so you can see exactly what you're getting. Since online retailers don't have as much overhead as say a big department store (it's hard to find a designer handbag in a small boutique), they are able to offer substantially more savings for the exact same purse. I recently picked up an authentic Chanel handbag at for 50% off retail at eFashionHouse.com and the selection is endless. Based on my budget (and a little bit of principal) I would never pay full price for a designer handbag because I know if I wait for the "it" bag craze to die down, I'll visit my favorite site and get the bag 40% off. You can also shop for brand new designer jewelry from Chanel, Gucci and others at more than 60% off.

Wait for end-of-season sales: All of the major department stores mark designer handbags off toward the end of the season an although it's nice to carry a bag as soon as the season starts, if you can hold out, you can find what you're looking for. But if you plan to wait for these sales, make sure you are the first to know because inventory goes fast and is usually sold out the day a sale starts (if you miss the boat, visit the discount designer handbag web sites who sell authentic bags at a discounts year round).

Out with the old, in with the new: If you are as much of a handbag lover as I am than you probably have a couple of designer handbags lying around that you haven't used in a while which means you can afford to get rid of them. If you sell these unused accessories on eBay or to a consignment shop, you can have some extra money to spend on the designer handbag you really want. Try it out, it won't hurt as much as you think.

Vintage: More than even clothes, vintage designer handbags, jewelry and accessories (wallets, scarves, etc.) can not only save you money but even outlast many of the trendier bags. Sites like LuxuryVintage sell authentic Chanel handbags in amazing condition (little to no wear) for as low as $400 and since Chanel handbags are timeless, this is a small price to pay for a bag you can wear for years to come.

Don't be a snob: In addition to the luxury leaders like Marc Jacobs and Prada, the handbag heyday has allowed for smaller labels like Elaine Turner, Tano and Pietro Alessandro to make a name for themselves. Often made from the same high end materials as couture fashion houses, it's easier than ever to score an ultra-soft trendy handbag, like the Elaine Turner Paige Python Frame Bag or the Alex Tote, for a fraction of the cost of an expensive designer label.

Cheap Chic: We usually don't like any handbags that fall into the $15-$40 range but we have to say that lines like Melie Bianco and Murval are quickly making us change our mind. We wouldn't recommend spending your money on a bunch of cheap, poorly made handbags but if you want the look of the moment handbag, than Melie Bianco will probably have it. Visit DesignersLA.com and be amazed at how Melie Bianco manages to make such stylish and gorgeous handbags at such unbelievable prices.

Shoes
There is not a lot of advice we have on shoes because we think that most savvy shoppers (who are women at least) have this category covered but we'll include a couple of pointers just in case you need a refresher:

Invest in a good pair: Shoes are quickly becoming like designer handbags in the fact that they are wildly expensive and there are now a ton of "must-have" styles. Christian Louboutin is the leader of the pack, followed closely by Jimmy Choo and Manolo Blanik but finding a pair of these beauties at a discount can be pretty tricky but not unheard of. If must have another pair of shoes (to add to the 30 you already have), than try to invest in as much shoe as you can afford. Maybe we walk a lot but we've found that investing in a good pair of shoes (leather upper and leather sole) can take us a long way.

Online: There are a ton of online sites selling only footwear and it's sometimes hard to go through them all but the one good thing about so many choices is that there is more competition which means that price points will be lower. We haven't found a ton of online sites that we like to shop at for shoes because we tend to shop for more high end brands (goes back to that investment thinking) and there aren't a lot of sites that sell expensive shoes but one place I have found luck at saving money is eBay (yes, eBay). I would never purchase a designer handbag from eBay because there is no way to guarantee that you are actually getting an authentic designer handbag but shoes are less likely to be knocked off. But be prepared to search often because the selection is limited however you can find some amazing deals (brand new Lanvin flats for $200 or Prada heels for $100). So brush up on your bidding war skills because wining a pair of Manola Blanik Mary Janes is harder than actually walking in them.

Sales: Like clothes and designer accessories, the best and easiest way to save money is to know when your favorite shoe store is having a sale, but the early bird gets the worm in shoes sales because if there is one thing women have in common its shoes. So although a slow economy can be a huge drain on your wallet, just remember that looking good doesn't have to suffer a recession as well. Become an experienced (and smart) shopper and you'll ride out tough times with the shirt on your back.

Top Budget Bags for Summer 2008

noreply@blogger.com (Liz Wood) — Sun, 25 May 2008 16:29:00 +0000

Summer is finally here and although we couldn't wait for its arrival, we still need to finish our summer shopping! Clothing is easy - flowing dresses, short and long skirts, blouses and tanks - but it's the handbag choices that can be tricky. With so many designer handbags to choose from, it is often hard for us to narrow down or favorites so we thought we'd help you with yours since we have a lot of experience looking (i.e. we love to shop!).

You still have time to score that perfect summer bag (or two) but here our are top looks for the season (oh and did we mention, they start at $15!):

The Cotton Tote

No summer wardrobe is complete without a cotton tote. We decided to pick up this Murval polka dot cloth tote in both black and green because we couldn't resist the small dots and roomy hobo shape. Plus at only $15 each, we could afford to splurge. Murval tote measures about 19 x 11 x 7. The double strap drop is about 13 inches. The interior is very roomy with a center two way zip compartment to divide the large bag. The inside has four large pocket pouches to carry all sorts of things.

The Everyday Bag

Sure your everyday bag for summer can be a neutral tone (black, brown or nude) but wouldn't it be more fun if it was one in one of the jewel tones that are all the rage right now? We thought so. We fell in love withe MELIE BIANCO Shirred Doctor Bag in yellow because it looks very similar to the $2k version we saw in fashion magazines and adorning celebrities limbs and at only $55 we can get the look too. Plus it's roomy enough to use for work which makes it perfect for every day. Melie Bianco handbag measures about 16 x 12 x 4.5 inches with strap length of about 22 inches.

The Straw Bag
No summer would be complete without a straw handbag (at least not in our books) and with so many stylish versions of this casual look, it's easy to see why straw handbags are so popular year after year. Though it isn't as budget-friendly as the other handbags featured, we just had to have the MICHAEL KORS Santorini Straw Shopper. We didn't mind the extra dough because this bag screams warm weather fun yet is sophisticated enough to wear for cocktails out or a nice dinner (the leather trim and shape really make it stand out). Michael Kors handbag measures about 12.5 x 9 x 3 inches with double straps having about a 7 inch drop. Canvas lined interior features 8 inch zipper pocket and 2 patch pockets.

The Clutch Bag

The Melie Bianco Convertible Clutch bag is our favorite for the clutch for two reasons, it is an adorable and original style and it is really three bags in one. You can remove the straps to create this funky clutch, or wear it as a satchel or a simple shoulder bag (seen here). The bag comes in a variety of colors and when's the last time you were able to score three cute handbags for $59 let alone one cute handbag? Melie Bianco handbag raw edges measures about 16 x 16 inches with a single shoulder chain strap.

MORE ABOUT Memorial Day
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Memorial Day is a United States federal holiday that is observed on the last Monday of May (observed in 2008 on May 26). It was formerly known as Decoration Day. This holiday commemorates U.S. men and women who have died in military service to their country. It began first to honor Union soldiers who died during the American Civil War. After World War I, it was expanded to include those who died in any war or military action. One of the longest standing traditions is the running of the Indianapolis 500, which has been held in conjunction with Memorial Day since 1911. It is also traditionally viewed as the beginning of summer by many, for many schools are dismissed around Memorial Day.

Many people observe this holiday by visiting cemeteries and memorials. A national moment of remembrance takes place at 3 p.m. US Eastern time. Another tradition is to fly the U.S. flag at half-staff from dawn until noon local time. Volunteers place a U.S. flag upon each gravesite located in a National Cemetery.

Many politicians and community leaders give speeches at community gatherings on Memorial Day.In addition to remembrance, Memorial Day is also a time for picnics, family gatherings, and sporting events. Some Americans also view Memorial Day as the unofficial beginning of summer and Labor Day as the unofficial end of the season. The national Click it or ticket campaign ramps up beginning Memorial Day weekend, noting the beginning of the most dangerous season for auto accidents and other safety related incidents. The USAF "101 Critical days of summer" begin on this day as well. Some Americans use Memorial Day to also honor any family members who have died, not just servicemen.

Flags flying at Fort Logan National Cemetery during Memorial Day 2006.Memorial Day formerly occurred on May 30, and some, such as the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) and Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War (SUVCW), advocate returning to this fixed date, although the significance of the date is tenuous. The VFW stated in a 2002 Memorial Day Address, "Changing the date merely to create three-day weekends has undermined the very meaning of the day. No doubt, this has contributed a lot to the general public's nonchalant observance of Memorial Day."

Following the end of the Civil War, many communities set aside a day to mark the end of the war or as a memorial to those who had died. Some of the places creating an early memorial day include Charleston, South Carolina; Boalsburg, Pennsylvania; Richmond, Virginia; Carbondale, Illinois; Columbus, Mississippi; many communities in Vermont; and some two dozen other cities and towns. These observances eventually coalesced around Decoration Day, honoring the Union dead, and the several Confederate Memorial Days.

Decoration Day, c. 1900. "You bet I'm goin' to be a soldier, too, like my Uncle David, when I grow up."According to Professor David Blight of the Yale University History Department, the first memorial day was observed in 1865 by liberated slaves at the historic race track in Charleston. The site was a former Confederate prison camp as well as a mass grave for Union soldiers who had died while captive. A parade with thousands of freed blacks and Union soldiers was followed by patriotic singing and a picnic.

The official birthplace of Memorial Day is Waterloo, New York. The village was credited with being the birthplace because it observed the day on May 5, 1866, and each year thereafter, and because it is likely that the friendship of General John Murray, a distinguished citizen of Waterloo, and General John A. Logan, who led the call for the day to be observed each year and helped spread the event nationwide, was a key factor in its growth.

General Logan had been impressed by the way the South honored their dead with a special day and decided the Union needed a similar day. Reportedly, Logan said that it was most fitting; that the ancients, especially the Greeks, had honored their dead, particularly their heroes, by chaplets of laurel and flowers, and that he intended to issue an order designating a day for decorating the grave of every soldier in the land, and if he could he would have made it a holiday.

Logan had been the principal speaker in a citywide memorial observation on April 29, 1866, at a cemetery in Carbondale, Illinois, an event that likely gave him the idea to make it a national holiday. On May 5, 1868, in his capacity as commander-in-chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, a veterans' organization, Logan issued a proclamation that "Decoration Day" be observed nationwide. It was observed for the first time on May 30 of the same year; the date was chosen because it was not the anniversary of a battle. The tombs of fallen Union soldiers were decorated in remembrance of this day.

Many of the states of the U.S. South refused to celebrate Decoration Day, due to lingering hostility towards the Union Army and also because there were very few veterans of the Union Army who lived in the South. A notable exception was Columbus, Mississippi, which on April 25, 1866 at its Decoration Day commemorated both the Union and Confederate casualties buried in its cemetery.

The alternative name of "Memorial Day" was first used in 1882, but did not become more common until after World War II, and was not declared the official name by Federal law until 1967 . On June 28, 1968, the United States Congress passed the Uniform Holidays Bill, which moved three holidays from their traditional dates to a specified Monday in order to create a convenient three-day weekend and for the first time recognized Columbus Day as a federal holiday. The holidays included Washington's Birthday (which evolved into Presidents' Day), Veterans Day, and Memorial Day. The change moved Memorial Day from its traditional May 30 date to the last Monday in May. The law took effect at the federal level in 1971 . After some initial confusion and unwillingness to comply at the state level, all fifty states adopted the measure within a few years, although Veterans Day was eventually changed back to its traditional date. Ironically, most corporate businesses no longer close on Columbus Day or Veterans Day, and an increasing number are staying open on President's Day as well. The holiday has endured as one where most businesses stay closed because it marks the beginning of the "summer vacation season" (similar to neighboring Canada's Victoria Day, which occurs on the prior Monday).

How to choose the best bag for you

Service@i-GlobalMall.com (i-GlobalMall.com, Inc.) — Tue, 13 May 2008 16:46:00 +0000

from Handbag Designer 101

Today, women handbags are not only “receptacles” of your prized possessions but also fashion statements. Handbags are often used to express moods, individuality, style and status. And even though, it is not really worn so close to the body like bloused, skirts and jeans, there are still shapes and styles of women’s handbags that may be flattering and unflattering to a person. Believe it or not, the handbag that you carry can actually add on or lessen the weight that you appear to carry.

Read on and find out just how to choose the perfect shape, size and style of women handbags that will fit your body type and personal style.

Look at the shape.
Choose the shape that is opposite your body type. For instance, if you are tall and thin, look for bags that are more on the rounded side like the hobo or those that are a bit unstructured. This will complement your figure as it would provide a sharp contrast to your body. If on the other hand, you are on the short and heavy side, it is good to carry women handbags that are tall, rectangular or those with really defined shapes. Long and sleek designs will help counterbalance your more rounded figure. Of course, there is no need to buy women handbags that are absolutely reed thin or those with really sharp edges. Silhouettes in soft fabrics and leathers can do the trick. Just remember to stay away from women handbags with rounded designs.

Think of the size
The size of your bag should complement your size. While the shape should be contrasting and complementing, the size should be in proportion. If for example you are quite tall and big for your age, it would be really awkward for you to carry this really small handbag. The same goes with a really petite person while carrying this really big bag. Awkward. Awkward. Awkward.

Close fitting women handbags or those that can be fit right under the arm at breast level can only look great with women who are slim and those who want to emphasize their cleavage. Using these kinds of women handbags are discouraged for people who have big arms and big busts as the short handles tend to emphasize the large sizes. Remember that the length of the handbags or shoulder bag will always accentuate the part it comes near with. If, for instance, the bag hits your bottom half or hip area, then that area of your body will become more focused as the eyes are naturally drawn to it.

Most women look great with handbags and shoulder bags that end in mid-torso as it flatters the waist. To determine if the length of the strap fits you, try it out. If your arm feels cramped, then it is too short. Try out the bag in the mirror and see for yourself if the bag is flattering to you.
