See What Happen Was! Man Bags!

Here we are! First allow me to apologize for not posting in a while. I have been consumed with a lot of things. Neverhteless, I am a SURVIVOR> this post is going to be filled with a bunch of little tid bits.

1. MAN BAGS!

Yes this is serious term and it has been coined by every major department store and designer. What is a Man BAG? OK Stop LOL!

A modern man needs a bag to carry all his gadgets. He has his cell phone, wallet, keys, sunglasses, PDA, iPod or MP3 player, and gym pass and try not to forget something. A man bag is an all purpose bag or satchel designed to be carried and used by men. It tends to be somewhat larger than a lady's purse, partially to eliminate confusion between a man's bag and a women's hand purse. The bags are quite handy, allowing men to carry an assortment of necessary belongings throughout the day without having to use an informal backpack or an overly formal briefcase. Several designers offer variations on a man's bag.

As a general rule, a man's bag has a single large strap so that it can be slung over the shoulder. The larger size often accommodates a laptop, large books, or necessary files and papers. One common variant on the man purse is a messenger bag, a type of bag commonly used by bicycle messengers and postmen. Messenger bags can be quickly accessed because they have wide openings, making them very convenient for people in a hurry.

When a bag is consciously designed as a man bag, it is usually kept simple, so that it will be unobtrusive on the wearer. Men's bags can be made from nylon, leather, cotton, and canvas, just like women's, but they tend to be designed in more subdued colors and styles. If the bag does feature embroidery or a design, it is usually in the form of the manufacturer's seal or logo. Extraneous buckles, zippers, and straps are also kept to a minimum.

Although some people find the concept of a man purse laughable, satchels for men can be extremely useful, and some women use them as well. The large size accommodates a range of items which would otherwise have to be carried by hand or in an assortment of awkward bags. Objects like wallets and cell phones can be stored in inner pockets so that they will not destroy the line of a nice pair of pants, while the user can also store things he or she might need to use over the course of a day.

Now I use my bags for many things. I have my agenda, laptop, glasses, sunglasses, phone, wallet, ipod, BIBLE, digital camera( you never know if you have to catch news) and business cards.

Now for all of you that drive just toss it in hte back seat and go. Commuters, you got to get one . WHy? It's all about the look.

You will be in complete awe, the reaction you get if you get rid of the brief case adn step it up to a man bag.
