Handbag Monday
Are you seeing double? I
did when I spotted the brown bag on the right before Christmas.
Let me backtrack. Several
years ago for my birthday, my sissie gifted me with the green bag. I looked at
it in a store when shopping with her and dismissed it as not
my style. But she must have seen me lingering over it and thought I
would want it. Voila! Happy Birthday, Vicki!!
And I decided to carry this
one and to my amazement received tons of compliments. I began to look at the
handbag in a new light. It went with so many things and the green color had me
thinking spring.
The inside of the green bag
is finished in a pink satin with a pocket. It's just big enough, I lose things
sometimes. But it is big enough to hold a book--a good priority. The handles
snap shut in a cool fashion, too. There is not maker's tag. I'm thinking a kit.
So fast forward to this
year... While perusing my favorite stop to shop for needlepoint handbags, I
found the brown one. I thought makes sense to buy it because I love the green
one so much. The lining of this one is black--yup, easy to lose things. And the
bottom isn't pinch pleated like the green one. Sadly, brown doesn't get the
compliments like green.
Now, I'm waiting for red and
blue!

They look like great Spring bags and right now, on the East Coast, we can use a dose of Spring! Thanks for the post!!
Hi, Angela! I think the green one is very springy. Hugs!
Very pretty! Green is my fave color!
The brown one actually looks a bit bigger! Geen for Spring and Brown for fall!
Hi, D'Ann!I like the green the best. I *think* I saw a blue one one time. Shoulda woulda coulda.
Hi, Cathy! Just a tad bigger because it isn't pleated at the bottom like the green one. And the green one has some special fancy stitching.
What fun bags! I can see why you have them!
Hi, Melissa! And can you imagine my googly eyes when I saw the brown one? Then I went why not and bought it. LOLOL
Why not stock up on what you like? I like the green bag, so springy!
