Small purses for women
There is something about you that suggests something small and beautiful becomes you. In the fashion world, small purses rank very high in the order of accessories, after jewelry. Yet fashion accessory aside, the small purse has great functional purpose, as it provides a medium to carry all the precious things you need. Put a small designer purse in your hand, and like a brilliant piece of jewelry, it transforms you immediately.
You’ve got things!
From the early days almost 5,000 years ago, when purses were first introduced, largely to hold coins intended for payments or barters, purses have evolved to works of art that today, despite their small size, are used to hold visiting cards, small stationery items, currency and credit cards, the mobile phone, essential make-up and other personal items.
The evolution of small purses
Though the nomenclature is used widely to encompass everything from clutches to shoulder bags, crossbody bags to satchels, it is generally accepted that small purses are handheld. Yet this has not always been the case. In earlier times, as the need was felt for a means to carry coins, purses took the form of round leather creations, closed with a drawstring and attached to the girdle of men and women. One sees this in images of yesteryear. No longer. With the style quotient being built-in, there has been a transformation of sorts of the ‘bag lady’!
Today’s purses are largely quite unrecognisable from the purses of yesteryear, with clasps, zippers, decorative pieces, wristbands and compartments. The materials used too have evolved considerably, and its quite common to see small purses for women organised around leather, cloth, canvas, plastics and other fabrics.
Comfort and style
At the heart of every small purse for women, is it’s ability to take the most significant things that she needs to carry across all situations. If a purse fails to do that, it has not met its purpose. Then, going further, it should wear easily. Inordinately heavy purses that are not comfortable to carry are definitely a no-no. Then, of course, comes fashion. With the hands being one of the most expressive parts of the human body, it is only natural that this accessory carries with it, the stamp of excellent design and workmanship.
