Just how old are you?

Middle age is when your broad mind swaps place with your narrow waist.

The only reasons to have a handbag in the crook of your arm are:
1. The strap is too short to put it over your shoulder, or,
2. The bag is too big and heavy to put it over your shoulder

And if you hold it in your hand you have one less hand free so you can't text so damaging your elbow joint is the best option.

Ladies, handbags and sunglasses

Okay, what is it with (younger) women now carrying their handbags in the crook of their arm? Sometimes with the addition of the mobile phone in the outstretched hand. I tried it and my arm was knackered after about a minute, it looks bloody stupid especially when you see a gaggle of girls all walking towards you like it.

Next, what is it with sunglasses on the top of the head, regardless of the weather, time of day or where you are? I've seen women sitting at their desks at work with the bloody things on, in pubs and restaurants during the evening, in pissing down rain. It looks stupid and definitely does not make you look like Jackie Onassis. Don't do it...(Oh and those hugely oversized sunglasses, no!)
