What My Handbags Mean to Me
by Indiaink
Class. But, of course, this is in my own mind. But if it makes me feel
good, then that's all the matters. We should do a thread in the other forum about what defines 'class'.
The ability to show My Clever Artistic Taste; what I carry is indicative of my inner artist (and yet - my inner artist is a quiet talker - nothing loud or abrasive, as some artistes can be.)
My fine taste; but of course, m'dear. Where I got this problem from I have no idea. I can't recall what my mother carried as a handbag.
My appreciation for a well-made and well-designed item. I carried a handbag made from cloth rather than leather (once) and my stepmother commented that "that wasn't like me".
Like me? Which raises more questions.
My Sense of Order and All That is Right With the World. If I can't find the right handbag for the mood I'm in at that moment, my world is out of order.
So - my handbags represent many things, of which all or none would be understood by the general public. Thank you for asking.
