I think I can speak on behalf of most women saying that the bigger the purse the more unnecessary stuff you carry in it. And these days as fashion dictates, big purses are in!
Although, the purse is a common objects carried by millions of women (and some men) of various ages and cultures around the world, there is a sense to mystique attached to each individual purse. What can she carry in her purse? What can contents reveal about the person? Women might have….make-up (a must!), wallet (practical), keys (prudent), IPhone (an addiction), gun (just in case, you never know), tissues (clean), gum (considerate), condoms (also, just in case you never know), hair brush (a little vanity doesn’t hurt) and all other good junk.
As far as the contents of my purse, I carry make-up bag filled with all or most of my make-up (vanity!!), small wallet with necessary items, lucky charms and spiritual items (always need it), keys, IPhone, business cards (you never know who you’ll meet) and sometimes mints, unless I eat them fast.
Generally, the less stuff you have the lighter the purse is, even if it’s a big purse. Now, what’s in your wallet?
