So does your bag define your personality? Or is it the other way round?
Freud may turn in his grave when he reads our special psychoanalysis, but we possess powers that he knows not…
Personality Type A: The Agony Aunt
So you like to solve problems, eh? Your friends often come to you for counsel, your parents discuss their finances with you and your boyfriend let’s you teach him business. You are omnipresent, omniscient, omnipotent – the eternal fixer-upper, the leader of the brat pack. You are Batman, but what is Batman even without his bat tools? Aiding your noble missions are your handy band-aids, panic medicine, emergency sewing kit, calculator, make-up and what not. But obviously, you need a place to store these comfortably with easy access to each precious item.
Your Bag: The Oversized Tote
Your Brand: Marc Jacobs
Personality Type B: The Dazzling Diva
When you step into a room, heads swivel in your direction. The men want you; the women want to be you and you know it. You are confident and poised, gracious and kind, always willing to help someone in need. You are rich, and filthily so, but you give almost as much as you receive, pausing once in a while to pick up a diamond earring or two. You love your Jimmy Choos and your attitude. But mostly you just love being adored and bask in the glory of people’s adulation. Even among divas, you are the princess.
Your Bag: The Clutch
Your Brand: Chanel
Personality Type C: Casually Yours
You live life to the fullest and love everything that’s fun. From video games to shopping to bungee jumping – the world is your playground. You love being surrounded by people enjoying each other’s company, laughing and making others laugh, having a good time. Nonetheless, you welcome a quiet day at home with open arms. Your demands are few, but necessary, and mostly in shades of pink. Your shoes are sensible, but trendy. You don’t mind having a one night stand, or maybe two nights, depending.
Your Bag: The handbag
Your Brand: Chloe
Personality Type D: Little Miss Sporty
You wake up every morning and head out for a jog – the sun might not be out yet, but you sure as hell are. Your comfort zones are your exercise ball and your gym, and your favourite hobby is stationary cycling. You play cricket/ tennis/ football with more gusto than a man, and enjoy watching them with equal enthusiasm. When depressed, you ‘treat’ yourself to a protein shake. And oh yeah, you have a fantastic body with abs that other girls would turn anorexic for.
