A Passion for Purses, 1600-2005 |
"In the early 1900s people began calling their bags "handbags". This term referred to luggage that men carried.
They then inspired women, who began carrying bags with complicated fasteners, internal compartments, and locks. In the 1920s,
it became popular that bags no longer had to match your outfit.
In the 1940s, with WWII, women's purses were made out of wood or plastic since metal was being saved for supplies.
In the 1950s, popular handbag designers included Chanel, Louis Vuitton, and
Hermes. Today these three brands are still popular, along with Gucci, Christian Dior, Fendi, Prada, Kate Spade, and Lockheart
among many others.

Dear Vintage Handbag Fans,
I am writing to you in behalf of your Heavenly Father. He is seeking you like a lost sheep. You remember the Bible story? It is about a shepherd who has 100 sheep. But when he brings the sheep home one night, one is missing. He then leaves the 99 sheep and goes out into the wilderness until he finds that lost sheep.In this parable the shepherd goes out to search for the one lost sheep-the very least that can be numbered. So if there had been but one lost soul, Christ would have died for that one. To read more click Lost Sheep
