Abstract: A method is disclosed for varying the design appearance of a manually carried handbag using a handbag with an exterior pocket formed between the handbag's outer surface and a transparent outer sheet. Any number of display sheet inserts, custom designed by the individual user, can be generated by, for example, computer and printed out for insertion into the pocket. By means of these interchangeable, display sheet inserts, the design, color and design style of a single handbag can be easily and simply changed, based on the individual taste and preference of the user. Matching display sheet inserts can also be used with other accessories like bracelets and purses.
