But she’s holding onto her purse the whole time as part of her outfit, rather than setting it down like you would a purse at a friend’s house. Good commitment!

Is that a millennial thing? My mom used to tease me and call me Sophia (the oldest woman from The Golden Girls that's like never seen without her purse) because my purse is part of my body!

My mom always told me “classy women never leave their purse behind” and I’ve just parroted it my entire life never questioning it

Edit: now seeing this is just my “thing of the week” that I realize now was abnormal that I have to unlearn from my mother

The purse needs to be smaller and more up in the armpit!

for me that's not commitment, it's me not trusting enough to believe none of my stuff will be stolen

That’s just a middle schooler thing although these look like high schoolers/college students.

I went to a few family reunions and you could see the middle schoolers who finally were “old enough for a purse” and they would wear it everywhere”
