I attempt not to have a purse, for when I do use a purse, I can't find anything.
Therefore, I have a very lovely. cognac-coloured suede zippered wallet that holds my money, debit card (and other paying cards), my work pass, ID and my transit pass. The zipper is large enough to slide my cell phone into without turning it off.
I put my lip care and keys in my jacket/coat pocket.
My best friend is a guy, and his guy-purse is always full! hahaha

I was shocked that none of the ladies carried a tiny vibrator; although, perhaps they have something better, a lover. (Not in their purse of course)! A Most interesting topic with my favorite item being mentioned was a Twinings Earl Grey tea bag.
