Shop the Look:
Every working woman needs her go-to, everyday handbag. I didn’t really have any handbags coming out of college, and didn’t realize I needed one till I landed a REAL job and moved to NYC. I looked around and all the women were carrying NICE handbags. I didn’t know where to start, but I knew I needed a nice handbag STAT. It’s necessary to complete the overall professional look. Wearing the right purse really ties the whole outfit together, especially if your trying to impress your corporate bosses or catch some eyes in the subway. Bottom line is that every professional woman needs a handbag to match her lifestyle and ever changing outfits. That is why I love the Mia bag by Oliver Bilou. If your going to invest in just one bag to start then I would opt for black, because let’s face it, it goes with everything. It’s also the New York staple color, you just can’t go wrong. I love the sophisticated shape of the Mia bag, plus it’s spacious enough to fit all my essentials. I feel this bag makes me look really classy and put together even when I’m running on 4 hours of sleep and the headache is starting to kick in from the night before.
