I don&#8217;t know how old I was but I always wondered what Kiss Lock meant on handbags. I was too young to know then as I got older I figured it out. I was an early teenager or something like that. \u00a0So this post is for those of you older and younger ladies who still may wonder what a kiss lock is.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/loveourglamourblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/1505575-3836639.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-491\" title=\"1505575.3836639\" src=\"http:\/\/loveourglamourblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/1505575-3836639.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"314\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>It is merely when the closure on a handbag is made to form usually two round balls who clasp together like a kiss and touch each other. That&#8217;s where the name comes from. This styling has been around for decades and is still being used today on some types of the more classic handbags. One reason is &#8211; it works well and it provides an easy opening while providing a secure closure. Kiss locks are smooth balls that are very comfortable to the touch to open and close.<\/p>\n<p>Most of the kiss locks form with the two round balls, but there are squarer version as well and they typically are on clutch &#8220;smaller handsized&#8221; handbags. And if you don&#8217;t know what a clutch is that&#8217;s a future post.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/loveourglamourblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/a-hug-and-a-kisslock-bag_7-beautiful-kiss-lock-bags-and-wallets.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-494 alignnone aligncenter\" title=\"a-hug-and-a-kisslock-bag_7-beautiful-kiss-lock-bags-and-wallets\" src=\"http:\/\/loveourglamourblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/a-hug-and-a-kisslock-bag_7-beautiful-kiss-lock-bags-and-wallets.jpg?w=138\" alt=\"\" width=\"138\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Enjoy.
