Kathryn Eisman’s Purse Book Reveals Your Secret Personality

Posted on: Nov 1

I've always thought you could learn a lot about a woman by looking inside her handbag. Is she a hoarder holding on to old bus tickets and receipts, or is she all business carrying just the essentials?

It seems it's not just a bag's inner contents which expose a woman's personality. Her purse of choice is just as revealing, writes Australian author Kathryn Eisman in her new book How to Tell a Woman By Her Handbag.

So what does your bag say about you? Read on to find out!

Hermes Kelly Bag Lady

Kelly carriers are showstoppers, the kind of folks that demand attention. She might have been born into privilege, or married into it, or she may have just hustled her way to the top. No matter how she got there, right now these chic femme fatale is at the top of the fashion food chain.
Pros: A walking, talking style icon

Quilted Chanel Lady

There are two types of quilted Chanel fans. The first is the original: a genuine classic with the sort of ladylike elegance we see in old Hollywood films. Then there is the new breed: young girls who've seen everyone loves a lady, and aspire to be just that. No matter their age, quilted Chanel women are the type who head committees, wear pearls, eat gourmet dishes and ooze refinement.
Pros: Always appropriate in any situation
Cons: So perfect, she's dull and boring. All those airs and graces are rarely as fascinating as the real Quilted Chanel lady
