Tips on how to buy Bags online

From inside, bags keep your essentials safe, organised, and all in one place. While from our outside, they add charm to your style statement. So, whenever you decide to buy a new bag, make sure the product serves both of these purposes. For that matter, we suggest looking at some less obvious details because they make a huge difference. We have compiled some here to help you to narrow down your purchase.

  • Shape matters – You should pick the shape according to the occasion. So, when you look for something formal, make sure the bag has a sturdy bottom and structured design. As you might stow documents in it, you do not want them to cram. If the purpose is casual, you can go for a soft exterior like the tote bags. Some bags even have pre-defined shapes, such as cylindrical duffle bags or boxy satchels.
  • Pocketing needs – A fully functional bag should have internal and external pockets to make the space more organised. But too many pockets can be annoying at times when you have to open all the pockets to search for just one item. So, a small handbag with one to three pockets is sufficient. But pocketing depends on your preferences. Some of you might need a clean outside look, so you can go for internal pockets and sleeves only.
  • Compartments – If the large compartment of your bag has sections, this can make your bag even more organised. Sometimes you put food inside, so it is better to keep it separate from gadgets or documents. A laptop sleeve is a great thing to have, and many bags come with detachable ones too. Overall, you can ignore having sections if you have fewer items to stow in your bag.
  • Comfortable straps – Some bags have straps in a fabric form, or some have chains or even solid metals. If this is your daily use bag and kind of heavy, choose fabric ones with padding on the shoulder. Usually, messenger or satchel comes with foam padding inside the strap or a detachable one. Also, do not choose something too thin as your shoulder or hand may sore hanging the thin strap bag. Widen the strap, the more comfortable it is.

We hope the tips will prove helpful in your purchase. We would also like to list a few brands to give you a better start with your shopping drive. These brands include Dior, YSL, Fendi, Aldo, & DKNY. You can find these designer bags at Shops.ae and even more at our online shops.
