Harriet Carter Product of the Week: The Coke Purse
Well, well, well. So we meet again. If my math is correct it’s been nearly 14 decades since there was even a mention of Harriet Carter around here at the IBBB offices. Well, times-they-are-a-changin’ because, uh, I’m posting one. Was that not clear? For those of you new to the site, check out the first Harriet Carter post here to learn more and get caught up on all the Harriet Carter product reviews over the years. Yes I actually said it…years. I mean who’s a bigger loser than me? Crickets. Anytrashbox, I’ve decided to highlight a beautiful coke purse that I know you’re all going to love and, well, mother’s day is right. around. the. corner.
The Coke Purse - Hey ladies, having a hard time keeping up with the latest designers for Spring Fashion Week in Milan this year? I’m sure giving yourself a home perm over your kitchen sink is really monopolizing your time. Well don’t worry about looking like yesterdays news when you’re heading out this Friday night to your local smoke filled Bingo parlor thanks to your very own sponsored Coke Can Shaped Purse. Ooo la la, is that French? And look at the way it really makes your denim jacket and cameltoe-high-waisted-mom-jeans pop! I mean, this model could actually be Jay Leno for all we know and with some additional research I’m sure we could confirm. Luckily this Coke purse is lined so you don’t have to worry about all the glitter and sparkles from your Troll Dolls hair damaging the fine metal craftsmanship. Made in Taiwan? You better your trailer ass it is! And no need to carry this can-bag-o-horror everywhere you go by hand like an animal because it comes with a genuine shoulder chain that really classes this up especially when you have an important business meeting (at the Piggly Wiggly) or a romantic dinner with you and your husband (in the “dining room” at KFC). So for the woman who has everything (that can be won in one of those stuffed-animal claw machines) finally something that yells class, sophistication, and truck-stop-blow-pig. Even the description really sells itself by labeling it as a “whimsical accessory” and how you’ll soon be “ready to drink in the compliments.” At last, something that matches your Betty Boop earrings and Hello Kitty puff-paint t-shirt that exclaims “Chicks Rule!”

alwayssunny Said,
so i did a lot of inspecting of this picture, because i’m really interested in purchasing such a fine item, and i think that jacket is actually denim colored suede. if it is suede that really brings this ensemble to a whole different level. this lady must be going to a high level event, perhaps a presidential dinner (president of the local gun club obviously) or maybe a swap meet. thanks ibbb for showing us regular people such a classy accessory!

I remember looking through a Harriet Carter magazine at my grandma’s house once. It changed my life, as have you.

Suzie Q Said,
This is truly one of my favorites. It has been so long since you have graced us with more Harriet Carter. It takes me so back to the first time.
It really looks like Leah is the “model” if you must. You all know that jacket goes with the crunchy hair. -
Dana Said,
@alwayssunny: that totally is suede! Wow, good eyes! But I’m just a little surprised that it isn’t a Mt Dew, Big Red, or RC Cola purse, considering the target demographic.

Stacey Charter Said,
Oh Harriet, it’s been so long. How I have missed you! and can I just say – MAN HANDS on that model or what??

Laurie Said,
