When vueling airlines says a passenger can take one piece of luggage as carry-on is the passenger allowed to also bring a handbag, purse?
This site is usually reliable : http://www.seatguru.com/airlines/Vueling_Airlines/baggage.php
Could not see the info on Vueling website...but checked very quickly.
I don't remember them asking me to put my purse in my carry-on like Ryanair I think.
From Vueling's site:
8.5Hand luggage
Each Passenger may only carry one item of hand luggage of up to 10 kg and no larger than 55x40x20 cm, with the exception of the Excellence fare which allows for one item of hand luggage of up to 14 kg.
In addition, the Passenger may carry one extra item free of charge and which must be significantly smaller than 55x40x20 cm, such as a small briefcase, a handbag or camera.
At the boarding gate, all hand luggage which does not comply to the company's regulations, i.e. which exceeds the amount, weight or measurements stated above, shall be removed and stored in the cargo hold of the plane, at an additional charge.
The Carrier reserves the right to cancel a booking and deny boarding to those Passengers who fail to meet the hand luggage requirements specified above.

Thank you so much Christi! What do you know about Easy Jet policy in the same regard?
Cabin Bag – what goes in and what stays out?
Cabin baggageCabin bag guarantee on all flights. Make sure your cabin bag travels with you.
Our customers have told us they want to keep their cabin bag with them – and not have to put it in the hold on busy flights where overhead locker space is limited.
And now you can. Our new cabin bag guarantee means you can make sure your bag travels with you in the cabin, even on the busiest flights.
easyJet allows ONE item of cabin baggage per passenger. If you bring ONE piece of cabin baggage no bigger than 50 x 40 x 20cm including handles and wheels, we guarantee it will always travel with you either in the overhead locker or, if necessary, under the seat in front of you.
If you choose to bring ONE bag that is slightly bigger than our guaranteed size but to our maximum allowed size limitations, 56 x 45 x 25cm including handles and wheels, on some busy flights your bag may have to go into the hold.
easyJet plus cardholders, FLEXI fare, easyJet plus Upfront or Extra Legroom customers, can continue to bring ONE piece of cabin baggage no bigger than 56 x 45 x 25cm including handles and wheels – and use easyJet plus Speedy Boarding to board first in order to secure space in the overhead lockers.
So if keeping your cabin bag with you is a priority, why not bring a slightly smaller bag (which is still big enough to hold all your travel essentials) and we guarantee it will not go in the hold – even if the flight is full.
Items allowed in the cabin in addition to your one cabin bag
Last updated: 06/06/2013
Items you’re allowed in the cabin in addition to your one cabin bag allowance include: an overcoat, shawl, umbrella, crutches or walking frame/stick and one standard size bag of duty free goods from the departure airport.

I have used Easyjet and Vueling .. a few times.. Easyjet its ONE carryon.. so that means you have to be able to shove your purse into your carryon bag as it is NOT one purse and one carry on.. On Vueling it is one purse ( or camera bag) and one carry on.
Websites on both airlines are very clear.
