.Avoid using bags made of cloth or leather as they tend to smell after getting in contact with rains. Bright colours like orange, sunshine yellow and fuchsia pink should be used and dull colours like grey, mustard and brown should be avoided.

* One must also keep in mind that that everybody style demands a specific pattern of bag. For individuals who are tall and slim, totes, wristlets and sling bags are suggested; while individuals who are bulky and short, should use handbags and hobo bags.
