If you are going about your everyday business, bags don't matter much. But if you hob-nob with influential people, power lunches and all that--bags are noticed.

We've got some weird built-in thing as humans for status and hierarchy.
I understand how the rest of the world thinks. When I say "I don't get it," I mean that I am not willing to trade that much green stuff for a purse. My thinking is along the lines of the book The Millionaire Next Door. I'd rather have several hundred dollars inside the purse than invested in it. That's all I'm saying.........
