large bags are in. you would think this wouldn't be the case since it's been "in" since at least early 2007. what happened to fickle fashion and getting outdated quickly? well, lucky for you if you are a big bag lova. you're still safe if you are carrying your FBI body bag sort of bag. apparently, the bigger the handbag, the better.
courtney cox with her big ass red snakeskin "bird bag."
angelina jolie with her anya hindmarch tote.
gorgeous chanel croc tote. huge effer though.
now, if you can carry off such a behemoth of a bag, then i have to wonder, HOW THE HECK DO YOU FIND YOUR THINGS IN SUCH A LARGE BAG??!! some designers are considerate of this fact and sew pockets on the insides of the bag for your cell phone, keys, etc.... but others do not. i guess if you were planning to carry such a huge ass bag in the first place, the designers probably assume that convienence isn't your main priority. lucky for angelina and courtney, there is a solution to this: the purseket. yep. an organizer for your big ass bag.
"The Large measures: 8" high from top of key post x 36" long. It wraps around inside to line the purse with 8 gusseted pockets. Fits canvas totes, carryalls, travel bags, large purses, beach bags, diaper bags with 15" min. opening x 8" min depth. 8th pocket is 6" wide & has velcroed flap which can be tucked behind the Purseket when not needed. Bulky items, eg. wallets, makeup cases, dayplanners, sit in the middle of a clean purse."
um, i have a few big bags myself, but i think the purseket is tacky. i know it's practical and all, but i can't get over how "pocket protectorish" it all seems. you know, GEEKY. it just seems ick to open your big ole chanel or marc jacobs to find one of these things in there. i don't mind digging around my purse for my wallet and keys. would you pursket your purse? it's $22 for a large, $20 for a medium, and $18 for a small. OR, you can take that money and get a froyo, yo. i pick option B.
