![]() I actually prefer the cheap one to the Coach one because it's a little bit smaler, and it has an outside pocket that perfectly holds my phone. I also tend to use this when I'm travelling because I'm always so concerned about being a victim of purse snatcher or pick pocket. Of course when the warmer weather comes, the coat pocket isn't available, but I just hook it over my wrist and I'm good to go. It's also small enough to tuck into my coat pocket, so I can have my hands free. They're just big enough to hold a tiny billfold type wallet, lip balm, my cell phone and any receipts I collect along the way. I have two, a plain black one my husband bought me as a stocking stuffer and a nice blue leather Coach one. Mayapple, When I'm going to run errands or shopping, I don't like to be burdened with a purse, so I carry a wristlet. That way people notice me and not the gigantic weight on my shoulder. To resolve the issue of appearing overwhelmed, I kept my bag very classic, structured, and sleek. Who wants to lug around a gigantic satchel just to carry a wallet, keys, and some lip gloss? Once you've pared down the essentials, just find the smallest possible bag that accommodates them. Most women have the problem of trying to carry too many unnecessary things with them. I generally try to limit what I bring with me every day. They look like unusually well-off bag ladies, and honestly, it just overwhelms them even more than if they just carried a single large, sleek, streamlined bag. It makes no sense either practically or visually. Why? Because I need to! What other option do I have to carry my stuff to and from classes? I think it's silly when I see women on the train carrying around a dainty little purse and then carrying all their files and books and other work items in a clunky, ugly shopping bag. I'm the same height and weight as you are and I carry a great big patent black tote bag around with me most days. To me, the size of the bag depends STRICTLY on what is going inside it. This is the general consensus among those who are able to overlook the utilitarian purpose of a bag. Would larger satchels look too large on me, and dwarf me? And what is the ideal size & shape of the purses I should carry (assuming that I would need to carry only an average amount of stuff in my purse)? I am very petite (5'2" in height and 105 pounds) and most of my girlfriends think I have a cross between an hourglass & a ruler/straight shaped body. More specifically, as I admire the new spring purses in all of their wonderful colours, I'm stumped on the size of purse that would best suit my body size & type. ![]() Am I wrong in my observation? What do you think? Should the size of your purse be based on the size of your body? Where should the bottom of the purse hit on your body? Whereas more petite women sometimes look overwhelmed with the larger sized bags, and look best with smaller regular sized purses (those that are roughly 1/3 to 2/3 the size of the larger satchels I mentioned above look so great on taller women). I've observed that taller women look great with larger satchels, hobos and many of the larger bags that have become so popular lately - but smaller purses look too tiny for them. But observation tells me that some body sizes look best with certain purse sizes. ![]() I would like to beleive that every woman has the ability to look great carrying every bag size, shape and form no matter how big or small the bag may be. This is a question that I have pondered a lot lately. ![]()
