omg that purse is so cute! it must be a junky brand though for the sequins to fall off. if its old though, then its normal. they've got to fall off sooner or later. i would just suggest getting a new one, from a nicer store. it will last you longer and the sequins wont come off. you can also ask the person that works there if the sequins will start coming off after a while and see what they say. what i would do is just pick up a purse and just kinda pick at a sequin a little bit and if it comes off right a way, dont get it! sorry, theres nothing else you can really do.

I can't offer a single solution for you that isn't time consuming and a little maddening.
I build costumes for amateur theatre and dance. This involves an ungodly amount of sequins sometimes. The way I deal with this is when they need to be attached individually is, firstly, using coat thread or coban to attach them, which is stronger and thicker then normal thread, or secondly, putting a little dab of fabric glue behind each one.
I wouldn't suggest you re-sew all the sequins by hand (I feel a little neurotic just typing that out) but go to a craft store and pick up some fabric glue, Alleen's Flexible Fabric Glue it my favorite, and use a toothpick to apply it to the back of each sequins. Put a movie on while you do this, it will take a while.
Also, while you are at the craft store look for some sequins that match your bag. They'll only cost you a few bucks and you'll be able to replace anything that falls off that much easier.
