My purse/briefcase finish my outfit. When I carry my bag, I feel finished and really ready for the day. Somehow they give me a confidence I would miss without them.
I don't have a lot of really expensive bags, but I have enough to fill all my various uses from going to the theater to go to meetings. I admit that when I get to work, they may sit on the floor next to my desk, but they still got me where I was going in style. I will always spend money on the right bag.
It is the first thing I notice in every single post on YLF. I admire and salivate. I know the poster by the bags she carries.
