What are the things you consider when looking for a purse?

Me. It's first the outer design. I'm simple and usually go for black or brown. I look for room. Not too little not too much. And I don't like an over abundance of pockets on the outside. One or two is good for me.

Second I look for inside space. I like one space with some side pockets with zippers. The one I have now had matching umbrella, lipstick bag and a hard sunglass case. I love it! And I got it on sale.

i guess my considerations are:
1 - style
2- price
3- quality

i agree with kitsch, i'll add the weight, and the size =)

For me its the size of the bag.Nothing too small or nothing that would swallow me inside.Secondly I look at how much I want to spend.I look inside to see just how much room there is and how many pockets I see.My favorite colors are brown and red.For me ,and I cannot justify why,but I just cannot bring myself to carry a black handbag.Oh it has to be made from leather that just is super soft.Nothing stiff.And I love a bag that has a nice strap on it.

For me it's the colour (has to be black), the style (can't be too feminine) and the number of pockets. I don't need a huge bag, but I do need lots of pockets so that I can organise stuff.

I'd rather use a bag with lots of small, separate compartments, than one where my stuff will get lost in one huge abbyss.

I guess size would be first, I like large bags for the most part, then it would be quality, color and price.

Functionality is the biggest thing for me. With a child in diapers who is always with me, I need something that will carry a few diapers and all the other things that a messy young one will need, as well as toys and my stuff too. So space, and lots of pockets or dividers to keep everything organised.
