Celebrated on October 10th every year, National Handbag Day is a day when both handbag collectors and ordinary people can enjoy a day that celebrates and honors the versatility of a bag that’s useful for carrying anything a person needs it to carry.

Although handbags come in a variety of different styles, from clutch to reticule and from purse to evening bag, all of them share the distinction of being not only utilitarian but also fashionable.
