Something for the weekend: purses

Sorry to break it to you, but people do judge a woman by her purse. Scruffy and overstuffed suggests chaos, which may well be the case, but isn't necessarily a good look. Meanwhile, a minimal wallet confers some serious next-season style clout. This lot are sharp and sleek and suggest that you can afford to pick up the bill. Just saying.
