Most people do not notice what a purse says
about one’s personality. If you start to analyze the different aspects
of the purse, you would find that it tells much about that person. So you
can check one’s personality by looking at their purseonality. Some
examples to illustrate my point are what you would find inside the purse
as well as the purse itself. You might look inside for different hints
to one’s organization or items of importance to the individual. The
style, shape, and color also reflect much about a person.
If you look inside someone’s purse, you could tell if that
person is organized or not. You could also tell if they are conscious
about looks or more about other things. Think about what you have
in your purse. Do you have only the essentials such as identification,
money, and keys? Most likely you have some personal items that
identify you. You might have pictures of your family, you might
have makeup, you might have candy or toys for small children—you
might even have all of these and more. Whatever you carry in your
purse defines which things that are important to you to have with
you at all times. You may not have given it much thought—but
think about the things you move from one purse to another and you
will understand my point. There are always things that you feel
you must have in your purse. You also look for purses that allow
you to carry the things that you need or want with you.
There are many purses on the market and new ones are designed
daily. Why would their need to be so many different purses just
to carry basic essentials? Most women carry them for more reasons
than just to carry their things.
Another reason for buying a particular purse is to match their
own personal taste. This allows people to express their personality
by color, style and perhaps even designer. In a survey performed
on college students, it was found that 86 percent of the students
felt that one purse was not enough. In fact, 62 percent have five
or more purses. The reason for different purses was generally for
different occasions. Some change purses as often as they change
outfits. However, there were some students that felt that one purse
was sufficient for their needs.
When talking to one student, she said that when she looks for
a purse, she looks for something small with a lot of compartments
to hold money. "Without a purse, change would get lost at
the bottom of my backpack and you just need somewhere to put your
change," she said. "I bought my purse because it's small,
like a wallet on a string."
We talked to another student that told us that she only carried
specific designer purses such as Dooney & Bourke, Louis Vuitton,
and Gucci. She said, “I just feel more glamours when I have
one of my designer purses with me.”
Several students expressed that color was the most important aspect
of the purse. They wanted purses to match their favorite color
or their outfit. Some chose colors because it reminded them of
other things. One student said "I have a bright green one
that says I am fun and outgoing.” Another said, “I
have a blue purse because I love the ocean.” Yet another
said, “I change purses daily depending on my mood.”
Whether you have basic tastes in purses and carry only your essential
belongings or if you prefer to make extravagant statements with
your purse and carry everything possible, purses will always be
a fun and easy way to express yourself.
