Misrocking That Purse Like...

I don’t know which is harder for me to visually process. An ugly purse, a fake purse, or a person misrocking a purse. Yes I just created that word. “Misrocking” is the act of rocking an accessory or article of clothing in an inappropriate way. Misrocking.
Purses are like people; they come in all shapes and sizes. Just like people have to dress according to their shape and size, purse wearing requires that same attention. Here are some of the top purse wearing and misrocking violations that I have witnessed.

1.Purse too little, you’re too big: Wearing a tiny little purse against a large frame results in making the frame look even larger. It’s not flattering at all. Remember that a bag in an accessory, it should serve to accentuate the positive. The Louis Vuitton pouchette helped to create this madness. When it was discovered that you could have an authentic bag for $140 bucks (this was over 10 years ago) folks went haywire. Then the bootleggers started selling them for $40. Those poor little bags were getting lost underneath an arm somewhere between roll 1 and 3. You could see chicks damn near having to cut the strap to get the pouchette off of their arm. Not a good look by any means. In this instance you aren’t using your purse as an accessory; rather than torturing the poor thing. You’re misrocking.

2.Death by Purse: I use this term to describe the phenomena of a person wearing a bag that is the same size or larger than their entire person. Shout out to Eva Longoria on this one. Hello is there a person walking with that bag? The bag is swallowing you whole and we cannot focus on its hotness because we are too worried that you are going to disappear into the bag, never to be seen again. You’re misrocking.

3.Name brand is always right: Wrong. Labels are great and we love them and this whole website is inspired by the existence of a label. However, do not let labels get you into a fashion police situation. If your outfit is complete and all you need is a bag to set it off, choose the most eye catching bag you have, not the most expensive one. Unless of course, that is the most eye catching. Its overkill and under style. You’re misrocking.

4.Speedy 101: This is strictly for my classic Damier or Monogram canvas speedy owners. Isn’t it just the cutest thing that your skinny little arm can fit all the way into the handles up the speedy and you can wear it on the shoulder? Great, now stop it. Bags with top handles are made to be carried in the hand or hanging on the forearm. If you want a shoulder bag get a hobo style bag or be a bamma and get the strap they have for speedys. You’re misrocking.

5.Is your bag…full? I’m sure I’m going to step on some toes with this one. Ladies and Gents who wear murses, stop overstuffing your purses. You are killing the shape of the bag, and you are killing me! If you have to struggle to zip your purse then you need a bigger purse. I would never go so far as to suggest someone reduce the amount of unnecessary items they carry in that particular bag. You’re misrocking.

Misrocking can go for any act of inappropriate rocking (wearing, sporting, styling, etc for those special folks out there). Leave your comments here, or on the chat box and tell me about instance where you think someone has misrocked a purse..ha! Fellas you too…I try not to leave you out and I’m sure someone in your clique is wearing that Yankee fitted too far down on his head. I’m sure one of your homeboys has some corn rows that start ¾ of the way toward the back of his head. I’m sure one of your homies can take off at least one of his Taliban scarves. You see where I’m going? Let me hear it!
