Death to the Oversize Handbag!!!

A few years ago the oversize bag was the rage. It came in all shapes, sizes, colors and textures. If you carried a small bag, you were 'dulling'. In fact, the bigger your bag, the bigger your «rep». All of that have given way to the small suitcase-like bags women now carry.

They have gotten wiser seeing that big bags, laptop bags and other heavy bags carried on the shoulder could severely damage one's spine. If you are still in the business of carrying big bags then I have news for you : you are causing major damage to your spine. Researchers state that constantly carrying big bags is detrimental to one's health. Due to the weight of the bag on your shoulders, you are bent (unconsciously) to one side and that constant bend is weakening your spine, making it extremely painful for your spine to carry your upper body weight. Also, there is the danger of arthritis due to the weakening of certain nerves which run from the neck to the shoulder.

I have good news though. There are other bags that are also as stylish as the oversize bags. They are called the box bags and as the name clearly states, they come in different box like sizes, almost like a female suitcase. They are moderately sized to carry your essentials: pad, pen and a few other lady-junk you carry around. So it is also as functional as it is stylish. So ditch that health hazard known as the oversize bag (which is out of vogue anyways) and move on to the ladies suitcase.

PS: If you notice any pain in your back, neck or shoulders, especially if you are a young lady carrying a big bag, please see your doctor.
