Cute as a designed objects. But seriously, OP, those are not going to work well as purses, men are going to think you're immature, and you're going to get some sideeye from women too.

I am listening to Prince right now. In his immortal words:

"Act your age, not your shoe size."


Why on earth would I care that a man would think that I'm immature?


Yeah, I assume this wasn't going to be OP's office purse or anything, lol. This would be like a man wearing a funny tie to a casual party.


Funny ties are corny as hell.

These are really childish. If you are an adult mom, then no.

If you are a teen mom. then maybe. You can keep your foodstamps and meth pipe inside, I guess.


We get it; you’re super cereal.


Captain Crunch.

I totally agree with the first two paragraphs.

Op what are you 5? No you don’t need these hideous kid bags.

If I see a woman on the street with these I’m going to have to try hard not to laugh.

In your defense it’s not giving meth head.

Can confirm: I am a lifelong Marylander and I kind of love the red crab one.

You don't "need" it.

But my general approach is: if you can afford it, would use it, and it brings you joy, go for it!

Personally I'd see someone walking around the Arlington Whole Foods with that and I'd think they look like a fun person. Now that I'm in my late 40s I'm ok with acting a little silly and immature on some things, if it doesn't hurt anyone. I have grey hair, do I really need to prove to anyone that I'm an actual grown-up?

I like that crab one. I would leave it on the floor and it would immediately get crushed by someone stepping on it though. Or my puppy would eat it.

But all these people saying it’s not sophisticated or whatever — get over yourself! I much prefer something fun to some expensive overpriced purse with some designers initials or logo.

I have a couple rules for life and one is seek out joy where you can. The question is only whether this will bring you joy for five minutes and then it will break or you’ll be sick of it (in which case I hate to add to landfill).

Honestly I bought a really silly smiley face bag a few years back and it was such a conversation starter and received so many comments and compliments. I think if it makes you smile, chances are it will make someone else smile too!!

They look used…in a bad way. Like they used to be more vibrant. Pass.

If you are 6 and playing dress up or need a place to carry your plushies, go for it.

Otherwise, you don't need it.
