The latest trend in purses and ladies, they are not cheap. You pay all that money so the world can see just what is so important you have to drag it around with you every where you go.
So what's in yours? My Tums, blister pack of sinus pills, my just-in-case travel size pad are items I don't think need to be on display but I guess my wallet, car keys, note pad and pen and spare glasses would be ok.
I will probably pass on this fashion statement.

Purse, ipod, mobile phone, notebook, pen, book, keys, inhaler. These are standard.
There can also be:
uni notes, highlighters, pencil, eraser, magazine, second book, work id card, 600ml bottle of water or coke.
So no, don't think I'd be doing that either. Good question though.
Darn forgot my cell phone and my little bottle of hand cleaner.
My 'handbag' is one of those small backpack style bags with a single thick strap that goes over your shoulder and across your chest.
Heaven help if anyone could see all the rubbish that ends up in it. Well, you asked for it.
Phone, purse, lip balm, headache tablets. Keys and sunglasses when I'm not using them. Mostly a notebook and a pen, though of course when I need them I've managed to have left them out. Today I've got 3 pens. Loads of tissues and shop dockets. A plastic spoon, because if I ever buy a coffee when I'm out I save the spoon for the kids' lunchboxes.
Today there is also an apple. The chequebook. Various brochures.
I have a side pocket where I keep spares - 'pads' and a couple of tampons, more headache tabs - actually kids' tylenol. Hmmm, what else is in here? Serviettes, and a few KFC refresher towels. A little sample tube of aerogard which I didn't realise I had. Another plastic spoon. Sunglass cleaner. Bandaids. A tube of Soov (for insect bites)which I forgot I had in there. A travel toothbrush (never used and it looks icky now). (Must have been from some time Marc got upgraded to business class on a plane flight and got the freebie toiletry bag - I wouldn't have bought one per se.) Some powdery stuff because a tablet has popped out of its blister pack. Some old raffle tickets bought last year.
What is this? A conspiracy to get me to clean my bag out?
I should have mentioned mine is a satchel, not a handbag.
Trace, I didn't have to clean mine out. Sadly, I could list everything in it. Because I take them all out each night and put them back in each morning. Why? "Because I can," seems to be the reasoning behind it.
Today I also had an additional two (hardcover library) books and a dvd. It was heavy.
I would never, ever buy a transparent handbag! Every couple of months I clean out the untidy mess that is my bag... I've even resorted to buying 'organiser' handbags to make me more organised. No, they just give me more hidey holes for my junk. I've tried little bags - they overflow, big bags - I lose things. My bag is like the inside of my study, untidy! Everything from miscellaneous reading and writing materials to lipstick and lots of bits and pieces of money that seems to fall in a heap in the bottom. Some tatty receipts and bills plus a mobile phone and a few family photos fall into the cavernous depths to be seen again in a few months if I'm lucky. You can probably glean my state of health in the last month or so by the presence (or absence of analgesics, cough lollies, puffers, or tissue containers). I can just about bear to investigate the contents myself, certainly impossible to let anyone see in.
I do have a see-through beach bag, though... all it contains is bathers, towel, sunscreen, and goggles (for when I'm going to the pool). No secrets there.
