Ok I need to know where do you usually put your beloved handbag when you're driving, is it the obvious spot which is passanger seat, back seat, or special designated place? Can you share tips? I hate it when I have to put the car to the stop or sharp turn then sometimes the bag would fly off my passanger seat and contents spill everywhere! So it's interesting to know how other handbag lovers experience would be, TIA all!
LOL....how fast do you drive?
I keep mine on the front seat if I'm alone. If I have a passenger it goes on the back seat.
Guess if you have this issue with your stuff spilling you could close your bag.
not fast at all! I'm someone who respects traffic too much lol! but I guess I'm not a good driver then cos it still happens sometimes
Same with @sdkitty I keep mine in the front seat when I'm alone.
If the bag is a crossbody on the smaller side and I'm in a hurry, I'll just wear it in the driver's seat. And if my husband is with me, I just toss it to him for him to hold
.My bags tend to have a slim rectangular shape, so I'll just lay it flat on the back with the most surface area. My seats are a type of suede leather so maybe it has more grip than other materials.
I know some people have a container on the floor of the passenger seat. So it's designed to hold groceries or bags, etc. without them topping over. You can buy those containers on Amazon that are specifically designed for cars. I have a long one with dividers in my back trunk for groceries. Very handy!
the divider for the trunk sounds interesting....the one for the front floor would be in the way if you have a passenger? guess you'd move it to the back if that happensSame with @sdkitty I keep mine in the front seat when I'm alone.

Correct, it would be in the way. That's why I used to have one but now I don't lol. I got lazy moving it to the back every time.
I have a hook like the one posted above that I hang from the passenger seat, so it is easier for me to access the bag. I also have this which helps keep the bag in place on the console if I don’t want to hang it on the hook.
So-when I’m alone it goes on the seat next to me and when I have someone in the car it goes on the floor. Yup. I don’t baby my bags and I clean and moisturize them often so they’re in good shape. That being said, I never buy white or cream colored bags or anything pastel!
