How to Buy a Handbag as a Gift

Handbags are always a popular gift. You can spend from $25 for a basic tote to hundreds of dollars for a designer bag. Don't forget to put in a penny for luck!

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Evening Handbags
• Handbags

1. Try to observe the woman's general wardrobe, if you can, to see what colors might be appropriate.

2. Notice or ask about her general handbag wardrobe. Does she like bags with handles or with shoulder straps? Does she need a large bag because she generally carries a lot in her purse?

3. Examine the possibilities. From colorful tote bags to leather handbags to fabulous (and expensive) jeweled or beaded evening bags, the choices are endless.

4. Shop at a department store, fine leather store, upscale designer store or on the Web. Compare prices and check on the return policy in case she wants to return or exchange the gift.

5. Choose something that goes with the majority of her wardrobe and matches most of her shoes, or splurge on something whimsical - as long as it's not too far out for her tastes.

6. Consider buying matching accessories such as a wallet, key chain or eyeglasses case.

Tips & Warnings
