You're a mess. Well, at least if you use messenger bags you are. That's according to personal style consultant Darcey Howard, owner of Lifestyled. She believes the handbag you sport can say a lot about your personality - for better or for worse.

And why not? Since the 14th century, people have been holding onto handbags and using them as a sign of status. Pockets weren't invented until hundreds of years later, so handbags were actually a necessity back then (and some argue now as well). It's inevitable that handbags are bound to evolve over time to adapt to our need for individuality, right?
