A handbag is practically always functional and used as a fashion accessory.
In American English, a handbag is called a Purse (a small bag).
Variations of handbags: Purses are usually carried by women, though men sometimes use one instead of a backpack; such a Purse is sometimes self-consciously labelled 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 described as a Clutch. A larger Purse with two handles, is often called a Tote.
A Pocketbook is similar to a Purse (in the British English sense), but has a place 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 especially good to protect types-the carrier from travel theft. The purse includes an invisible stainless steal strap inside the fabric and a cover on the part where the zipper is.
Some different handbag types are :
