I've had a purse from Target for a few years that I *love*  . Perfect size, shape, holds all my stuff comfortably with room for taller things (like notebooks) to stick out, secure, etc.
But, it's falling apart. Like, the outside color is literally peeling off. 
I've been trying to find a good replacement, but o..m...g. I apparently don't really like purses, because *nothing* seems to appeal to me or work for me. I've looked at thousands online, and been to a good 10 stores or so (high end and cheaper!) - and nada.
I finally broke down and bought something online... nice, a little expensive but on sale, so not crazy. But now that it's here - I don't really think I like it. It's just... not comfortable?
Would love to hear what you're carrying, if you're into purses, and what you love/hate about yours! |
Hey guilloche, would you ever consider a backpack purse?
I love them! I absolutely HATE purses. I DO NOT LIKE the way they feel strapped over my shoulder (which they're always sliding down and need readjusting every few seconds).
THE ONE TIME I WANTED A PURSE. OKAY. I. THE POOR BROKE AF GIRL. JUST ONCE. WANTED TO FEEL LIKE A LITTLE PRISSY RICH GIRL. I just wanted ONCE to say I owned a Coach purse, because you were the shyte if you owned a Coach purse. Bought the prettiest floral Coach purse that wasn't like all the other coach purses I've seen where it was just LOGO LOGO LOGO all over the damn thing. No. This was navy blue with white daisies on it. So cute! I fell in love...so I thought. The damn zipper...THE ONLY ZIPPER!!!!!! Broke WITHIN A MONTH. I spent 90 FRIGGEN DOLLARS ON CLEARANCE on the damn thing just to feel cool. NEVER AGAIN.
So now? I swear by the backpack purse. I've gone through two, both I got at Goodwill under $10 and $5. Trustiest steeds you could ever ask for. Yeah, they may look like grandma purses. They ain't fancy. They're black. But DAY-YUM. Could they take a beating! And oh, the pockets! I'm all about the one zippy pocket in the front-bottom where I keep my ciggies and lighters and hand sanitizer and whatever crap I deem fit. THAT DO NOT FALL OUT CUZ THEY ZIPPY. Oh so fly! Oh, and btw, they're so sturdy, wipe out all the crumbs and blast it with some hardcore lysol spray and BOOM. Back in business. I really only need two zippies, one for my cigarettes and one for all my other crap. And for something so small, it sure as hell fits EVERYTHING! It's a tiny little purse and all of a sudden I'm Mary Poppins, pull one thing out and another and another and it never ends. And it's light. And I love my backpack purse cuz no shoulder drama, and no one can steal my purse while I'm wearing it cuz it's attached to my friggin' body.
I'm in a silly mood so excuse the weirdness, but TEAM BACKPACK PURSE FTW!!!!!!
