MDBCs 10 Oct 2024

Created in 2013 by Purseblog, a blog that follows the fashion and handbag industry, Handbag Day recognizes the importance of handbags in daily life and in fashion, and acknowledges that a handbag is not only an essential item in a person’s closet, but is also a simple way to make a style statement.

The unofficial holiday encourages people to share pictures of their handbags and show their love for this fashion accessory on social media websites.

How to Celebrate?

Go out and get that high-end handbag you have been eyeing the whole year.

The guy says, "It's not that. I just never thought the parrot would sell the place."

I was cuddling with my girlfriend, and she said, “I love lying here with you.”

“I once caught a fish, and it was five feet long and spoke Hebrew,” I replied. She stared at me, confused. “That was my lie,” I said.

“Oh, right. I see. Very funny,” she said. She paused a moment before rolling over. “That was my lie.”
