For some women, a handbag is not just a bag carrying personal belongings, but a symbol of their identity. Studies have also shown that men buy expensive items to show off their wealth and attract partners, while women buy expensive items to show off to other women, not to attract men, which gives women another reason to buy luxury bags.
