A handbag is nowdays usually functional and used as a fashion accessory.
Most commomly it is used to hold a number of items such as a wallet, keys, and tissues.
We see a lot of variety in handbags: Purses are typically carried by women, though men sometimes use one instead of a backpack; such a Purse is sometimes self-consciously described as a "murse" or "manbag". It can also be bluntly called a "man-purse".
A medium-to-small-sized bag with a short handle, designed to be carried (clutched) in one's hand is often termed a Clutch. A larger Purse with two handles, is often referred to as a Tote.
A Pocketbook is similar to a Purse (in the British English sense), but provides for the carrying of sheets of paper as well. Purses are also made-up of zari, sterling silver, leather, cloth etc.
A security Purse is made to protect other types-your valuables from travel theft. The purse uses an invisible stainless steal strap sewn into the framework and a binding to cover the zip.
Other types of handbag include :
Hobo: The Hobo bag is a style of Handbag or Purse that is typically large and characterized by a crescent shape, a slouchy posture and a long strap designed to wear over the shoulder.
Satchel: Black Satchels are often used in fiction, often in stories involving oppressive governments, to cover the victim's head. Such Satchels have been used in Lost, and V for Vendetta.
Other types of Handbag include:
The Duffle: A large bag ordinarily used for travel or sports, The Shopper, and The Cross body.
