Leather bags are 'must haves' for women these days . They reflect class , elegance , taste and strength .  
There are various kinds of bags that serve different purposes :


                                      
Athletic bag – A spacious bag used for carrying sporting apparel and necessary equipment to the gym or sports ground.



Backpack – A bag that lies across the back and is supported by wearer’s shoulders with double straps. 



Baguette Bag – A rectangular bag that basically reminds of the French-bread loaf , Baguette. Baguette bag is long from side to side and small from top to bottom. This bag may come with a short shoulder strap.



Bowling Bag – A bag that was originally intended for holding a bowling ball but later became a fashion item .



Bucket bag – A spacious bag in the shape of a bucket, can come with an open top and a shoulder strap.

Duffel Bag – A large bag used for travel or sports.



Envelope bag – A flat bag, square or rectangular in shape, with a triangle top flap that folds over like an envelope. Envelope can be as small as a clutch bag or larger.

Wristlet – A small bag in shape of a clutch, comes with an attached leather or bracelet-like strap allowing wearer to hold the bag and have their hands free.

Now , since you know so many types , you may want to buy a few or all of them . Phew ! I won't advise buying one of each type ( I don't want anyone going bankrupt !! ) 
But, a few of these wouldn't hurt so much . You may purchase them based on your taste and requirement .
Wristlets , Envelope bags ,Shoulder-bags , Fold-over clutches or just the plain Clutches may be good for formal events . They'll compliment Sarees and Evening-gowns . 
Baguettes are good for an afternoon-lunch .
Hobo bags , Sling bags , Backpacks and Messenger bags will look great with casual wear . But , they are likely to compliment young girls in their late teens ,twenties or early thirties than a lady who is, graceful and well above 35 years of age .
Athletic bags , Bowling bags and Duffle bags are very closely related and may be used for travelling or athletic events .
Finally , for the Tote bags ; they're good for travelling as well as for working women .

So go out and buy one now ! After all , bags too are a woman's best-friend !!
