Have you ever felt like it is impossible to find a bag that is functional AND comfortable, while looking amazing? We hear that all the time and, have found that to be true. Ultimately, the best purse is one that resonates with your personal style and expresses your personality.
Every Janell bag is designed with intention. We think beyond looks to consider color, occasion, material, detail, and quality: the five essentials that make a bag not just beautiful, but perfect for real life. This is the level of thought and craftsmanship you can expect in every single design we create.
The first step in selecting a purse color is to understand your own color palette. Look for bags that feature colors you love and that match your wardrobe. If you often wear neutrals, a purse with bright colors can add a pop of excitement to your outfit. On the other hand, if your clothing is already colorful, you might prefer a purse with complementary tones to avoid clashing.
Think about when and where you plan to use your purse. Is it for daily use, special occasions, or travel? For everyday use, a medium-sized, durable purse with multiple compartments might be ideal. If you’re attending a formal event, a sleek, smaller bag with elegant colors might be more suitable. For travel, consider a roomy tote that combines style with functionality.

The material of your purse can significantly affect its durability and appearance. Leather, canvas, and synthetic materials all have their pros and cons. Leather is timeless and adds a touch of luxury, We believe ultimately that leather is the best option as it will endure daily life and get better over time.
Design details can make a big difference in how a purse looks and functions. Consider the types of closures, the number of pockets, and the length of the straps. Adjustable straps can offer versatility, allowing you to wear the bag as a shoulder bag or crossbody. Pockets and compartments are crucial for keeping your belongings organized.
Opt for brands known for their quality and design expertise. A well-crafted purse can be a long-term investment, so it's worth ensuring that the stitching, zippers, and hardware are durable. Check out our reviews to see what others have said about their bags!
