The Wedding is Planned but Have You Thought about Your Bridal Purse?

A wedding is a joyful event that takes lots of planning so sometimes it’s easy to put off some of the little things like purses and other bridal accessories.

It’s your big day and you’ve got everything you need. Your white dress, bottles and bottles of champagne and a man who wants to spend the rest of his life with you. You want the day to be perfect but as you leave for the church you suddenly realize that you don’t have a place to carry your make-up and tissues. You need a bridal purse.

Purses are everywhere and go with everything!

Every woman loves have a handbag. We seem to have them for every occasion and in every color. A bridal purse is just another addition to our arsenal of carrying devices. But a bridal purse is very different because it needs to be special as it’s something we’ll have with us on the most important day of our lives.

Shopping for handbags and purses

When a woman goes to purchase a bridal gown the sales attendant will usually discuss some of the accessories with her. Things like shoes, lingerie and a veil are all essentials. The bridal purse can easily be overlooked. It’s unfortunate because no woman wants to be caught dead on her wedding day carrying a garish green handbag or a beaded black clutch purse.

The day you are shopping for all of your wedding attire should be the day you purchase your bridal purse. The majority of brides choose a small white clutch purse. This is subtle enough that it won’t stand out yet elegant enough that if it’s caught in your hand in a picture or two it won’t seem out of place.

Beaded is in

Beads are a common addition to these special handbags. They may be the same size as the beads found on the wedding gown or they can be pearls. A pearl studded bridal purse instantly becomes a family heirloom that will be passed proudly from one generation to the next.

Making your own purse

Some women love to make crafts and they have the skill to do it. For them they might consider making a bridal purse. A really lovely notion is to make the purse out of material that matches the wedding gown.

Or in some cases using a swatch of material from their mother’s or grandmother’s vintage gown to make the bridal purse. This covers the “something old” superstition while at the same time incorporating the women who are special to the bride into the ceremony.

Don’t overdo the size

You won’t be holding too much in this small bag. Usual finds in a bridal purse are lipstick, some mascara, breath mints and a supply of tissues. You don’t want to have money or any credit cards inside the purse as it’s very easily for it to become misplaced during the day’s festivities.

Make your day extra special by having elegant and tasteful accessories. Whether you purchase one or make it yourself a bridal purse is both functional and attractive. Now, shop carefully and show up in fashion style!!

As you probably know, anything sold can be bought on sale. The same is true for womens purses. The trick is to find handbags or purses on sale that are a real bargain and, most of all, of value.

It seems like everyone has something that they enjoy doing. My husband loves to fish and hunt. He can spend hours on the lake fishing or in the woods hunting.

Of course these activities take special equipment as well as special clothing. He is always looking through sporting goods catalogs to see out is new on the market to enhance his activities. I go out and do some fishing and hunting with him, but I would rather be in the mall shopping. Going shopping is the activity that I enjoy doing.

I have always enjoyed shopping, all kinds of shopping. I love to buy anything and everything. I enjoy grocery shopping, clothes buying, bargain shopping at garage sales and second hand stores. My husband teases me that I even shop at the gas station.

The purse on sale

My favorite part of shopping is getting deals. I comparison shop and look for sales. I rarely buy anything that is not on sale. I am not one that needs to have certain name brands.

I buy things because I like them and they are a good deal. I am always looking for purses on sale. I like to switch the handbags I carry often to match my outfits.

Part of my reasoning is that it keeps my purse from getting packed full of junk that I do not need to carry around. Usually at the end of season there are great selections of purses on sale. Handbags or totebags are one thing that are often on the clearance tables as well. Part of the reason for this is that purses are bulky for the retailers to store, and they also change on a regular basis.

I do always have my on the go purse. This is the purse that I carry back and forth to work. With this purse I look for compartments that help me find things easily has room for everything I need on a daily basis.

The other bags are used for fun, when I am out and about shopping, going to dinner or out for the evening. By purchasing the purses on sale I can have many different colors, shapes and sizes. It is not necessary to match your purse to your shoes as women used to do in the past.

Choosing purses and handbags on sale

I like to pick my purse to compliment what I am wearing. There are many cute bags to choose from for this reason I do not like to spend a great deal of money on one bag. If I spend a great deal on a bag I feel more obligated to use it all the time. I would rather have a big variety than one expensive name brand purse.

You may be different so develop your own style of shopping and buying purses on sale. And, don’t forget to have fun!
