Tips For Choosing A Handbag For Job Interview

* Remember the environment where you plan to work. If it were a fashion magazine where you are applying for the job, then fashionable yet elegant bag would do for you. However, for a formal interview it is always good to stick to the usual standard colored bag.

* Choose a bag matching your apparel. If you are wearing a black or a navy power suit, you can go for a black or dark blue bag. Your bag should match your shoes, which you have chosen for the interview. You can go for a tanned or a camel leathered purse if you’re wearing a lighter outfit.

* Make sure that you go for leather, faux or suede for the handbag for interview. Avoid taking silk, satin, sequined or canvas bag to an interview.

* The bag, which you buy, should be multi-functional. It should have built-in various compartments to carry your documents, keys, phone, and makeup.

* The bag for the interview should not be flashy and have large zippers, metals and big badges or bows.

* Choose a bag of a good brand and try going for black, brown, or other standard color.

* The bag should reflect your professionalism. It should be sleek, slim and simple yet elegant. It should reflect the personality you want to portray to your interviewer.

* If you are planning to put all the documents in your handbag then make sure that you are aware where everything is. Don’t keep any junk in it and don’t stuff it with too much things.

* Remember to choose a medium sized bag for your interview. A small sized bag may make you look very large and won’t even be helpful in carrying much stuff.

* If you are giving an interview for a place where conventionalism rules, then opt for classy handbag.

* No matter how much vogue are they in, huge sized bag are a no-no for an interview. It just makes you look messy and disorganized.
