Wearing a white handbag gives any outfit a bright, clean look and an polished touch. This perfect Rebecca Minkoff structured Hobo handbag is simple, yet the gold harware and eyelet finishes give this bag an extra touch of sass.

Handbago 101: Handbag Basics

Working in the fashion industry, I forget that most people and consumers who actually purchase fashion designs don't know the difference between a clutch and a wallet or even a hobo and cross body. To make matters more interesting, it's not just men who have these handbag questions, but women have these confusions as well! Although all of this fashion-oriented information just comes as second nature to me, maybe we need to have a fashion intervention and information convention for all of our bagistas.
