The Quest for the Ultimate Purse!

I am currently ebay and googling the web like a lunatic searching for The Ultimate Summer Purse. You guys just won’t unnerstand.

My past Ultimate Summer Purses have served me well, but our relationship has faded. The thrill is gone. It’s time to move on.

I’ve been on a tear for over a month. I would like a quilted bag kinda like the Vera Bradley Villagers, but without the prints that are a bit of an eyesore.

I even tried to make one ( out of upolostry fabric that is cool.) but it’s more of a rather large tote bag that I now use for books.(Which has met with kind comments from the Old Lady Brigade despite the fact that I actually made it. Compliments, too me, are as if I am a runner in the Special Olympics: I’m going to get them but so is every one else. ;j
An example of what I would like:

Vera Bradley Chocolate Hard to find in this color, but with the one with 6 pockets inside.

This one is cute enough to keep an eye on.

I love this one! I loves it even more that the check book is too low and gas prices are too high and it is hard to get. A trifecta that means it is perfect for me!
So, I’ll keep an eye on it and see what happens near payday.
It is times like this that Ebay is my own worst enema.

I like the second one best - but then blue is one of my favs.

I have to admit that I broke down lately and bought a Gwen Stefani L.A.M.B. hobo bag. It is so fun!

I’m an eBay addict as well - great bargains to be found!

Ahh!!! Purses! You found my weakness! Have you tried your local Ross/TJ Maxx/ et al? I get a lot of my bags there. The prices are awesome and they often have designer stuff (Kate Spade, real leather, etc).

As far as my purse infatuation, I broke down and bought this Coach bag the day it came out (January??).

Someday, my precious. Someday.
