Big purses have been en vogue for what seems like an eternity, but this summer I started seeing more and more small cross body bags in stores. This fall, small bags are officially making a comeback, but which do you prefer? Bigger bags hold more stuff, but smaller bags are less bulky and are better for your neck and back.

STYLELIST.COM reports:
I've recently found myself massaging my right shoulder intermittently throughout the day, and feeling it ache when I lay awake at night. I'm not that active, so why am I having muscle pains that leave me moaning and groaning?

    Oh the united soviet socialist republic of kalifornia. That explanes the dumb laws. Why not just recycle? That would be a lot easier.

    I like simple satchels and saddlebags. I think that gigantic bags look ridiculous and they seem like they would hurt the shoulder. I prefer to wear a bag across my body or on my back.

    I like to carry my home with me where ever i may go.
    My love for big purses may a have a little to do with 'rebellion', if you could call it that lol.
    Were not aloud to have large purses at my high school, i was even once told to put my purse out in the hall because my teacher said she didn't know me well enough to not bring a gun to school... Luckily, one of the 'popular guys' i grew up with defended me and she trusted him enough to let me keep my purse...

    I hate big clunky things like that. I don't have that much crap to carry around anyway.

    I said small purses because the purse I'm using everyday now is tiny. Literally, it's like a wallet on a string. I have a larger purse that is like a small, leather messenger bag. But whatever purse I use HAS to go across my body, like a messenger bag. I can't stand purses that just go on my shoulder. I feel like I am able to be more active, and I can sit down somewhere without removing my purse from my body with these cross-body purses. Also, I feel more secure walking around the city like New York, DC, or London because it would be harder for someone to snatch my purse.

    Ohhhh. Well, I usually think a purse is just an everyday thing. My mom constantly gets her stuff confused. Big bags tend to not have a lot of pockets. I want something that organizes. My mom has a tiny medicine container (she only takes like two pills a day) and it gets lost. I call it the abyss.

    Ah, I see. My bags always have lots of compartments in them. I have to carry around a glucose drink and injections and a blood monitor... and then I carry my make-up and iPhone and all that other stuff so yeah, that's why I have bigger bags ^^

    Depends on where I going and how heavy they get. Else like a medium size purse with a compartment for mobile phone and all those cards you have to carry from almost every store to get the deals they're offereing. Also wish purses weren't black on the inside. If they were white or some nice bright color you could see where your things were a lot easier

    Its easier to carry a large purse (or diaper bag), than having to carry a small purse and a diaper bag.

    I store all my little purses in one big purse to cut down on dust and clutter in my closet. It works pretty good. Sounds like you have a respectable collection started.
