Backpack/laptop bag, and pockets. Mostly, I find that I need to carry about a hundred times less than I assumed I did when I had a stuff-carrying-thing on me at all times.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I don't carry a purse, unless I'm Dressed Fancy For An Event (which happens less often, now). For workdays, I have my black messenger bag with all of my crap in it, and I just put what I need into my jacket pockets otherwise.
Mind, I usually only carry my (small) wallet, cell phone, keys, and lip stuff. And maybe my iPod.
I do own... 4 purses. Two very fancy dress, one shaped like a corset, and one basic.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
I so fail at the girl thing.
My Dad doesn't leave the house without his bag. He's dropped all pretense and calls it his man-purse. Says he doesn't know what he did with all his stuff before he carried one.

I keep looking at this man-purse, but there's no way I can justify the cost.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
As a skirt/dress wearer, I never seem to have pockets. Also, I have a tendancy to carry everything I may possibly ever need in case there is some sort of natural disater. Frankly, I would probably lug my cat and her food/litterbox around with me if it were practical.

I'd prefer that manbag to an actual purse. But I can't to the cross the body straps anymore, they kill my neck and shoulders.

I have a messenger bag in addition to my purse, and I carry it to work every day, too, because the purse only has room enough for one book, and I usually take at least two books and a notebook with me.

When I had a smaller wallet, I didn't do purses. The current wallet is easy to access, but doesn't fit in pockets. And if I'm carrying groceries or whatever in, I need both hands.

Oh, there is always a way. Especially if it looks like that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Well, I bought two bags on the way home, one black and one brown. Now I want to switch the black one for the same model as the brown, because it's a little bigger, but I'll sleep on that decision.
I have enough outfits with no or small pockets that no bag would never be an option. It would be nice to have one big enough for a paperback, but it's just a shade too small once you have the camera and blackberry in there as well as my phone.
