While "The Big Bang Theory" creators tweaked the cast's appearances over the 12 seasons, they used one prop for Kaley Cuoco's character throughout. The Things noted that Penny had the same purse from episode one to the final episode. The slouchy, brown shoulder bag can be seen by Penny's side when she's out at work, with Bernadette and Amy, or with Leonard. It was basically a main character in its own right.
While other bags came and went in the series, the brown tote was a pretty big constant for Penny. Worn On TV noted that while her hair length and style changed, her laid-back, girl next door (quite literally) style never faltered. She was often seen in flannel shirts and button-downs. Penny is also a massive advocate for some funky pajamas, but can glam it up too.
Over 12 years, Cuoco developed Penny into what felt like a full human being. And talking to iNews, Cuoco said she lent into her role. "I think there's a misconception that people that are on shows for a long time get worried about being pigeonholed," she said. "I used to laugh because I was like, 'if I'm typecast as the girl next door in a sitcom for the rest of my life, that's the best thing that could ever happen to me.'"
