WhitneyGothic Purses- Coffin Purse
January 29th 2010 21:53
Most of the coffin purses have a clip on shoulder strap that hangs the coffin on its side, as well as a handle.
And, most of the coffin purses have a latch that keeps the purse closed.
You have to lay the coffin flat on its back in order to open the purse to get to your belongings. This for me is a pain because I like to be able to reach in and grab what I want, but some people have the time to stop and pick out what they want. To me, it's just an added hassle to stop at the register open up your purse so that the cashier and the people behind you can see what's inside your purse, just so that you can grab your wallet out.
But, to each is his own.
Coffin purses generally have a black exterior and a black or maroon interior material. There is usually some sort of gothic cross on the top of the purse. The size, shape, and style of the cross will vary, and in some cases, the color of the goth cross will vary from coffin purse to purse.
As for the interior, there may or may not be a small pocket on the inside of the coffin, but you'll probably find that most don't have the hide-away storage pocket. Some actually have a built in mirror which is pretty cool.
Most coffin purses measure about 10 to 12 inches long. They generally aren't the biggest purses to carry, but they're great for children and as costume accessories.
