Study: Romanian women buy on average three handbags a year

Romanian women buy, on average, three handbags a year, shows a recent study conducted by Sole Luxury Boutique. They like to follow the trends and have a special handbag for every outfit. “This finding is not surprising, given the evolution of design, materials and the large number of models on the market. Moreover, the price range is extremely wide which means that everyone can find a specific model and a budget,” said Angela Tiboc, fashion & lifestyle division director of Sole, cited by local Wall-street.ro. When buying a new handbag, women should first look at the quality of the material, the study shows. Then, they should take into consideration the handbag’s color, shape, and the possibility to accessorize it with several outfits.
