Lunchbox or Handbag?
I spend a lot of time out on the town. I have spent countless
afternoons shopping for the latest fashions. I have covered mile
upon mile of New York City on foot searching for the perfect
shoes. I have partied into the wee hours of morning far too many
times for my own good. When I am out and about, I happen to see
a lot of people. I hate to admit it, but I have always paid
attention to the clothes people wear and the accessories they
use. Honestly, I fear it is becoming a bit of a problem.
As of late, it seems that no matter where I go someone is
carrying a lunchbox. At first I just thought that it was cool
again for people to take their lunches with them when they left
the house. But then I started seeing them in magazines, in
fashion shows, in music videos. People just couldn't be eating
that much! It took me a while to clue in to what was happening.
It seems that the lunchbox has replaced the traditional handbag
in certain quarters.
What is it about the lunchbox that those people seem to love so
much? Is it the inherently utilitarian design? Is there some
form of nostalgia at play? The more I thought about it, the more
I realized that I had to have one of my own. The only problem
was how to decide on the right one for me. How does one
go about
finding a lunchbox that properly expresses their individuality?
What if I made a mistake? What if my lunchbox told the world
something other than what I intended? What is a girl to do?
I finally decided on one of the retro lunchboxes. They are
supercool! At first, I thought I might want one with cartoon
characters on it. Strawberry Shortcake was my first choice, but
I don't wear a lot of pink and decided against it. Then I saw
one that had Cheech and Chong on it, but I figured I would be
stopped by the police every few blocks with that one. Then, I
found the one for me! It was a Ramones lunchbox, with a cartoon
drawing of the band on the lid. If am not mistaken, that was the
artwork from one of their albums. I absolutely love my new
purse....I mean, lunchbox. Hey! Ho! Let's Go!!
