What does your handbag say about YOUR political beliefs? (2024)

Have you ever wondered if there's something about you that's giving your political party of choice away?

Content creator Beverly Hart, who previously worked in politics as a Hill staffer in Washington, D.C. and now makes TikTok videos about 'beauty, fashion, and chaos' in New York City,has shared a 'spot on' video revealing what your handbag really says about your allegiances.

According to LinkedIn, the University of South Carolina graduate worked in politics for five years forDemocrats including Dean Phillips, Sean Patrick Maloney, and Jackie Speier.

Beverly has been going viral after sharing a video asking, 'Is your purse giving Republican or Democrat?' which she quickly turned into an ongoing series.

'I used to work for the US Congressand whenever we'd go get coffee in the morning we'd play this game,' she said.

'We would just guess what staffers were based on their purses alone,' Beverly explained.

She started her TikTok by breaking down the preppy L.L. Bean boat tote, which has had a major resurgence over the last few years as people monogrammed cheeky sayings on the canvas. Beverly described the owner as a centrist Democrat who regularly went to national parks and wore lots of navy.

As for the iconic Chanel flap, with prices ranging from $2,000 to $14,000, Beverly said the owner exclusively drank Pinot Grigio and wore a Cartier Love ring, which starts at $1,250.

'Definitely that girl who's like "I don't talk about politics," but she's a Republican,' Beverly announced.

When it comes to the the nylon Baggu crescent bag, which is $52 and a massive hit with Gen Z, Beverly the owner 'probably volunteers at a local community garden,' dubbing her a Socialist.

Beverly believes the woman who has the professional looking $128 Beis work tote, which is described on its website as 'functional, fashionable, and free for happy hour later,' is bipartisan.

Beverly also brought up trending bags, like the sold-out $295 Staud Tommy Sardines, whose owner would be a Democrat, while the lady with the similar floral option is a Republican.

As for the oversized Christian Dior Large Dior Book Tote, which retails for $3,500, she said to 'throw this tote out,' because she had seen the dupes all over Canal Street, adding, 'It's giving definitely doesn't vote but goes to events at Mar-a-lago.'

Commenters quickly weighed in with their own thoughts about which parties favored specific designer bags.

'Longchamp is bipartisan! Kate Spade is Republican,' one person proclaimed.

'Hard disagree on Chanel flap, I feel like that's the "champagne socialist" bag,' one commenter explained, as one woman claimed conservative Democrats favored the expensive purse.

In another TikTok video breaking down bags, Beverly said the classic Louis Vuitton Neverfull ($2,030) was 'screaming Republican - and not just Republican, Trump Republican,' while the Fjallraven backup that's all over Brooklyn was for a 'big time Democrat.'

According to the content creator, the Longchamp gives 'moderate' and the Marc Jacobs Tote Bag in pink is for Republicans.

Beverly explained she carried the forest green Telfar, which a commenter deemed 'iconic.'

A commenter agreed: 'Former White House here and this is spot on.'

Many people weighed in with their own ways to break down Dems vs. Republicans, including block heels vs. stilettos, brunettes vs. blondes and sleek straight hair vs. big, curled hair.

But there was one bag that was nonpartisan.

'I feel like Longchamp bags are the only thing that can truly unite the parties,' one comment read.
