What does your handbag look like?

I want to get a new handbag but it has to be able to hold all my junk that sometimes include my lunch.

I've come across this website and apparently this is what is classed as "Goth".
Srsly guys. Would/do you have one of these?

p.s I think the heart with bat wings is quite cool but I don't think I would actually buy it.

I have four handbags. Well one is a shoulder bag. The shoulder bag is black with small red skeletons all over. One is in the shape of a black corset with shaped boobs and pierced nipples with chains hanging off it. The other two are quite plain. One with red flames and one with a small white skull.

I love the "body bag" bag on that site.

I'd take the Gothic Satin a. It looks very comfy.

I have a shit ton of purses, but I RARELY use them. I did get an oversized plain bag for my school books, though. It's pretty rad.

I've got three: Dr. Pepper and Sweet Factory candy boxes but I have to fix them (solder the metal tabs so they don't break off and line them inside to avoid rust and other debris)

And this cute little box leather/faux croc-skin purse that used to be my mom's but needs some reupholstering so I can keep it for a long time.

I have loads of various black handbags from rubber to velvet. Nothing really specific (like the corset, spiderweb, etc. ones on that page). Just an assortment of them.

No matter which of my innumerable bags I choose for that day, I usually end up not being able to close it because it's just a tad too small for all the crap I'm lugging around. Which pisses me off because I'm liable to have stuff go spilling out at some point if I don't close it. I finally found a plain black tote bag that seems to work best at fitting everything in.

heh. I don't carry purses. I always lose them and they are the excuse everyone else uses to ask you to carry things for them. 'Just put it in your purse!"

I carry a wallet. I've carried a wallet since I was 12. And no, just because I'm female and carry a wallet instead of a purse DOESN'T MEAN I"M LESBIAN!!! (sorry, bit of a rant there, i've just gotten that reaction so many times :P)

however, I do carry a book bag from time to time, it is just standard black canvas, with two partitions inside for papers and binders and such.

If i WERE to carry a purse, say, a clutch bag for an evening out, I'd like to have a little black coffin shaped one, covered in satin. Simple design, nothing over the top, but just a little out of the ordinary. With a tiny chain strap, and one of those little twisty metal clasps.

Hey, not too shabby! Knit it yourself?

What kind of fucktard would call you a lesbian based on not having a purse? :P

The same ones that think a person is a lesbian because she knows how to turn a wrench and fix cars, or because she can drive a 4x4 truck, or because she's worked construction, or because she doesn't wear makeup and primp her hair everyday, or because she does wear steel toed Doc Martens and guys jeans, or can discuss mathematics or politics with a degree of sense. Or maybe it is a combination of these things, NONE of which have anything to do with sexuality.

I've had this happen in a couple ways, either speculation behind my back from guys and straight females that i hear whispered, or from someone else, (eventually someone asks, or asks about family, etc), or getting hit on by girls. Flattered, but no thanks. /end rant :P

ha ha! The sad thing is, I had a steady BF in highschool, that I ended up being married to for six years. Nobody in highschool ever thought that, this is all stuff that has happened in the eight years since then

I find women like this thrillingly sexy... Aw, are you SURE you're 100% straight? *pouts*

tee hee. I'm flattered, Prophecy and Clarissa, but you know, great as boobs may be, I love the cock, and just can't see myself switching. /end threadjack

speaking of purses, i think this one is cool.

I hate handbags that are shaped like non-handbag things (corsets, coffins, spiders).

I've got more bags than is practical or necessary. I switch most frequently between a black leather Coach (shut up) bag with steel rings on it that remind me a little of S&M (though I believe it's meant to be a reference to horseback riding), and a black Luxe De Ville bag with sugar skulls on the front.

Hey I won't knock you for having a Coach bag, they make some fantastic stuff (a little expensive but nice).

The bag I use most is my cherry red leather medium sized tote from Wilson's Leather, it is kind of like this only a little shallower, a bit wider and the red is a shade or two deeper, I love it

I love purses. I have an entire rubbermaid tote of them in my closet.
at the moment I have a black velvet messenger type bag covered in various pins and buttons.


and the heart and wing one is cute. I think i would like it better if there was no heart though. lol
