You know it. You can picture it. The Mom Purse is chiefly remarkable for its ability to carry absolutely-freaking-everything… well, that and its related ability to weigh forty-five pounds while appearing to zip shut just fine. But is it known for panache? For style? For sheer nerve?

Not so much.

Save your mom, or yourself, from the iconic burden of the Mom Purse this year! We at the Purse Page will be featuring some out-there options guaranteed to shake up one’s wardrobe, each with a centerfold pic and little personality dossier. (Where have we seen that before?)

Name: Recycled Computer Keyboard Purse

Distinguishing Feature: actual, real live, recycled keyboard keys cover it – and it has a wrist strap. Who can type with something this bulky dangling from one wrist?

Found: at Comic-Con 2011 in the front row of Mark Evanier’s presentation, next to a man with a half torn shirt, dressed as Clark Kent.
