What it does and does not do
| Situation | Advantage | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Formal, evening | Discreet, sits well with a suit | One hand is taken |
| Everyday, documents | A4 fits in the larger models | Easy to put down and forget |
| Travel | Papers kept together | Not secure in a crowd |
What to look at
- The wrist strap: it is what stops the bag being set down and left behind. Check it is fitted and removable.
- The zip: on a clutch it runs the full length and is opened constantly.
- The edges: on leather, the cut edges show wear first, especially on a bag held in the hand.
