Let me introduce you to Carly. This girl is livin’ large! She is thin and trim. Dare I say she is bitchin’! Didn’t you know that the first handbag designed for Coach was prompted by a brown paper shopping bag? Since 1962 the inspiration for Coach’s handbags, purses and totes has not changed much.

It seems now more then ever, we thrive on functionality as well as practicality from a purse that is erroneous enough for us to carefully conceal away what we cannot leave behind. Besides the average everyday necessities such as a cell phone, wallet and keys, there are some things that we need at times but don’t want to disclose, or want to keep concealed. So what does a girl want but not want to show?

She secretly craves Mr. Handsome but doesn’t want to reveal to him that she has already invited herself to spend the weekend cozy in bed with Mr. Handsome. I mean you could have an overnight bag already waiting in your car just in case. Then when he asks you to stay with him for the evening, you run out to your car to fetch your bag but that is just tacky isn’t it? Sort of ruins the moment don’t you know?

Carly isn’t like that! She can keep a secret about the necessities and unmentionables that are hidden in a woman’s purse so Mr. Handsome doesn’t think you are trying to move in. The Large Carly Leather Signature purse, tote or handbag zips tight to keep a woman’s enigma mysterious.

Can you imagine yourself on a date with Mr. Handsome using a tote that doesn’t zip and accidentally exposing your smutty intentions? Oops, your bag tips over and there it is for the world to see, exposing your nasty little secrets Don’t be cheap, be discrete or you will send Mr. Handsome running to Mr. Guys-guy all because you didn’t want to spend a little extra money on a Coach. We don’t always know what life will bring so being prepared is being practical without being like Allison Reynolds (Ally Sheedy) from The Breakfast Club.

Seriously, there are two ways to mess around. They are called cleaning up the mess around the restaurant floor after spilling the intimate things from your bag, or there is cleaning up the mess around the bedroom floor after messing around with Mr. Handsome all weekend. I don’t know about you but I would much rather mess around with Mr. Handsome.

Although having a handbag that serves a greater target, the Carly Signature Large by Coach comes in a multiplicity of diverse patchwork. My personal favorites are the traditional Large Coach Carly Authentic Khaki/Black Purse, and the Time honored Denim Carly’s with patent trim because of its lightweight and durable signature material with crinkle patent leather trim and size.

The Carly Coach is made with Coach’s patent leather or canvas fabrics in the traditional colors, black and brown but she also comes in an array of diverse patchworks or canvas colors. From summer pinks, whites and blues to holiday oranges, browns, and reds as well as classic favorites.

Carly is more than a lady, she is a Coach!

Defensive driving online has become a popular sector of the education market in many states with Texas and Florida leading the surge. Training companies have sprung up like weeds since several States began to encourage drivers who had been ticketed, to attend defensive driving classes. In many areas, you can trade your ticket for class time. The result is you learn in school and get that ticket cancelled from your record. More and more of these ticket academies even offer internet classes.

Ticket income is a major cash cow for most states. To give a share of this up in exchange for education indicates the schools really work. There has been mounting pressure for more and better driver education for two primary reasons. The death rate from automobile accidents has gotten out of control … especially in the under 25 age group. These deaths and the accompanying collision costs, are putting a big dent in insurance companies profitability as well as their ability to provide affordable insurance.

Whether you got your drivers license last week or 40 years ago it’s impossible to ignore the risks we some drivers take. Not only with their lives but also sometimes with ours. It’s pretty natural to spot a dangerous driver. So, it is also likely you can tell right from wrong on the road. What we all need to focus on more, is that small patch of our brain cells that links knowing with doing.

The key to achievement in any pursuit, is to adopt an attitude of pride. Are you proud of your driving skills? Like many other things in life, defensive driving is a matter of your attitude.

Driving a car is the closest most of us will ever come to flight under our own power. Just step on that gas and go, go, go. It’s easy to get carried away and some of us forget there are others out there on the road with us.

When you realize that many of those other drivers you are out there with are amateurs and may well represent a serious danger to you and your passengers… is usually when the light goes on and you start to change your driving habits for the better.

For you to make that transition from amateur to pro easily and quickly, you simply need to admit that bad drivers… possibly including you… represent a real threat to your health and wellbeing. Not to put too dramatic a point on this, but the risks are quite genuine and very much include that line between life and death.

There is a definite relationship between how well you drive and how long you live. There is also a specific correlation to how high your insurance premiums are. If you can live longer and pay less then you’re a winner and a great example to your fellow drivers. Could it be Texas defensive driving online helps here?
