For women, handbags are a staple to the diet of convenience, practicality and style. No matter whom it is, women will always have one form of handbag one way or the other. Heck, even men have handbags; they just have a manlier name for it: satchel. If they catch on, men will no longer have something to tease women about.
As a woman, the handbag carries most about everything there is known to be placed in drawers and cabinets. That is probably why BCBG handbags have so captured the hearts of women. When you open the bags and there are a lot of compartments and little pockets with and without zippers, a pocket for the cell phone, and office supplies, it is just so irresistible. Once, somebody took hold of my handbag and nearly dropped it when he found that it was very heavy and I had been lugging it around for months and all over town. When asked what was inside, anyway, one of the items was a hammer, so leave it to me to do that. But women are like that. We love having things at our beck and call when the whim takes us. It is just the way we think. And the proper handbag, of course.
Taking a handbag away from a woman is like taking off her left, or right hand. The bag is the lifeline of the functioning woman. Everything has to be in it, within hands reach. A security blanket that holds all the essentials to life. And when women see handbags on display, oh man! Do we drool.
Confession time is I own one, only one, of Max Azria’s BCBG handbags. BCBG stands for “Bon Chic Bon Genre”, or translated to English means “good style good attitude”. This French designer knows how to tug on the heartstrings of women when it comes to big, leather bags that fits so comfortably on the shoulder it rides on and no matter how much weight is in the bag, just feels like it is part of the body. Not only that, the leather is smooth and natural, it feels like silk. To say that I love my bag is an understatement: it carried my hammer inside for 3 whole months before I decided I didn’t need it every day.
Online, there are BCBG handbags that can be found in eBay! And Overstock, as well as other sites that sell them. If you don’t like shopping online, one can always go and visit one of the 75 branches of Max Azria’s boutiques where you can choose other products. If you get confused over the name, BCBG and BCBGirls are one and the same. So go and get your own, take it from me, it is worth every penny you spend on it.
