Are their no decent purses

I'm always in search of that perfect handbag. No such thing exists.

Oh, you need to go shopping with me. I could find you that perfect handbag. I actually love all of mine, out of which all but one have been gifts. They each have a different purpose, feel, style, etc. I love rotating purses but it is nice to have a go-to purse for any basic occasion.


Alas, I really wanted this PURSE for Christmas, but did not get it. And, as I'm on work furlough ( the office is shut until Jan. 10), I can't really justify spending more than I already have.
 
I always carry a Coach purse. I love them. They cost a pretty penny but one of the good leather ones, if taken care of, will last forever!

Warmest Wishes,
Whoa Nellie
 
Purse or wallet?
That was my question.

Over here in the U.S. this is a purse:

and this is a wallet:

Sounds to me like you're talking about a wallet.

So I would say over here we don't have the same kind of problems you're having keeping your stuff together.

The top one I would call a handbag (or more correctly a shoulder bag)

The bottom one I would call a wallet

I would call this one a purse (more correctly coin purse)

and I would call this a purse as well (its a combination of a wallet and a coin purse)

but it's so cute and summery looking! maybe it will become a mood enhancer. that would make it almost pharmaceutical in it's function, no? def worth the moolah then!

A Crazy Cat Lady wishes she could knock auntiehill over the head and steal the Coldwater Creek handbag.

It is a really nice handbag, auntiehill.

Yes, we would call that a coin purse in the US, too.

But purse by itself is interchangeable w/ handbag (or shoulder bag) or pocketbook. The latter, of course, can also mean a small paperback book. Just to make things more confusing. ;)

Serial thread killer, Brighton (http://www.brighton.com) makes really nice quality purses-of-all-definitions. I don't think they have retail stores in the UK, but the website has links to a couple on-line merchants who sell them.

Lots of nice stuff there.
Sadly I only work in a factory, so out of my price range.:(
