So you thought it was ultra chic to carry a dainty tote with you on your evenings out? Well, it8217;s just the reverse really, if you believe in going by fashion trends. This season, big is beautiful. 8220;The thing about big bags is that it fits in almost about everything a woman might want to carry, and hence it8217;s obviously pretty high on the comfort factor. Not just that, it makes a nice style statement too because it stands out in contrast with the outfit, be it formal or casual,8221; was accessory designer Meera Mahadevia8217;s take on it.

The thing to concentrate on when you are choosing a big bag is the shape. The ideal shape for an over-sized clutch is round because it blends with almost anything that you might be wearing and lends it a personal touch. Go for short straps so that it sits pretty on your shoulders or is easy to lug around. That way, you are bound to make heads turn.
