Look out for the least fashion conscious soul around you and question the person, about the importance of a bag for her attire. The results would be astounding, I bet! One would be surprised to find out that, even the least fancy person, tries her hands in carrying a fairly attractive bag. But have we ever thought, why? Come to think of it, why does a person, (maybe otherwise, most consciously nonchalant about fashion, still) try that extra mile for bags?
The reason has forever hovered around us, waiting for acknowledgement. It is futile to deny the fact that it takes quite some time, to some extend an innate taste and some background knowledge to team up garments. However, bags spare you of this exaggerated, overrated confusion. One tasteful choice of bag could pep up so many attires. This is because in the cosmos of fashion, bag is that one entity that makes a statement in itself, without even the aid of the garments.
Speaking about making statements with bags, choosing a unique one is the trick! In fact, have you ever imagined the thrill in finding bags, with an ‘ethnic’ aura, taking uniqueness to a whole new level? Well, this article would make your quest easier! Below is my search of bags, which I believe are enough to make a statement all by itself, because of the unique ‘desi’ vibe it emanates: –
