The Asprey


Margaret Thatcher's famous handbag has gone up for auction.  You can read more about it here.  The proceeds are going to charity apparently.

In other purse 'news' - did you read the Oprah magazine, poetry issue?  Of course you did.  Then perhaps you came across this:

"When I least expect it something strikes me. Just now, for instance, we were driving westward and stopped at the West Virginia welcome station, and I looked at the woman next to me who tucked her purse between her legs to wash her hands, and that little action triggered something in me�I suddenly thought of all the things we do subconsciously to keep things neat, and the way women carry purses around." 
�Rita Dove
