How Does the Big Bag Hold Up?

The past few years, fashion hasn't been too kind to the "big bag," instead of turning its attention to small, sophisticated crossbody bags and clutches.

However, there's something to be said for the oversized bag — especially the tote — simply because it's so darn useful. Here are 10 reasons we love the "big bag trend," even though it's hardly a trend anymore, but more like an essential piece in a bag wardrobe that necessitates a few different options.


7 Reasons We Love Big Handbags and Purses
1.They aren't precious. The great thing about big bags is they are meant to be used. You can toss your bag in the backseat of your car or set it on the counter at the coffee shop without worrying you'll forget it or damage it.

2.They are incredibly practical. The truth is, the real reason to get a big bag is so that you can carry a lot of stuff. Whether that's hats and scarves and gloves in the winter, gym clothes for after work or all your baby's things, one big bag is pretty much essential for most women, no matter what their day-to-day life entails.

3.Big bags are ideal for travel. A large tote makes the perfect carry-on companion, especially if it's soft and can easily slide under the airplane seat in front of you.

4.A big structured bag is great for work. Clean lines and a sturdy look make your bag feel as professional as you do.

5.You can find an oversized bag that works all year long. Brown and black leather make for seasonless, easy bags that can be carried from season to season, year after year.

6.Big bags go with basically everything. Perhaps not your favorite formal dress or cocktail attire, but a big bag goes with your favorite casual outfits and weekend wear as well as what you'd typically wear to work.

7.A large bag can make you look smaller by comparison. It's true!
