My new purse!

Hey everyone!

I am so excited to have you all stopping by each day. I hope you are enjoying the different themes. Today is the first Saturday in May which I have declared as:

 

First, let me just explain that I have looked in several stores and online to find a purse. I don't carry the same purse for a long time so I don't want to spend much when I have to buy one. I don't trade them out as often as I used to but I don't hang on to them, either. I love to have pockets and compartments for all of the things I carry in my purse. Tonight I finally found a purse I was willing to buy. I spent more on it than I wanted to but I do love it.

 

Here is a photo of my new purse!

It does not have a shoulder strap on it and I was kind of bummed at first but the handles are big enough to fit on my shoulder so I am happy!

The front of the purse has a big, deep pocket with a twist-clasp closure. I have my keys in there. The sides have pockets as well. I have highlighters in one side and then pens and pencils in the other.

The back of the purse has another pocket with a zipper closure. I have nothing in there yet but I will probably put gum and candy in there.

The inside has two small pockets without closures. I have a notebook in the bigger one and nothing in the other yet. There are two deep sections on either side of the zippered center. I have my billfold in the center. Different pouches I have are in those deep sections. There is another pocket with a zippered closure and I don't have anything in it either, yet.

The bottom of the purse is big and sturdy. It allows for the purse to stand upright. I love the texture, too.

The bag retailed for $80.00 but the Shoe Dept.'s price was half of that and I paid $29.98 like the sticker shows. Of course I don't think that is a wonderful deal but it isn't too bad and compared to some of the purses on the market out there it is cheap! LOL But I will definitely hold on to this purse a lot longer than I would have another purse because of the price.

I wanted to show one final picture of the purse zipped closed. I love that I can zip it all up and no one can see all of the things I have inside!

 

What do you look for in a purse? Do the prices of purses send you into sticker shock when you are you shopping? Have you found a purse at a bargain price?
