Purse

Andrea posted a link on her blog to this site where you can design your own purse. I tried it and it looked cool but I'm not at all sure about buying a ($185) purse without seeing it first. I'm very particular about my purses...they need to zip up so things don't fall out and you can't see what's in it (easier to sneak food and drinks into the movie theater), have a strap that easily flings over my shoulder, but doesn't fall down constantly, a pretty color and somewhat soft material...at least one pocket on the outside for my phone or whatever, and several on the inside for sunglasses and stuff. It has to be big enough but not too big. I'm fairly sure that this purse doesn't exist. But I am partial to my Coach purse...but who wouldn't be partial to an almost $300 purse? But this is my justification for that....it will actually end up costing more in the end to buy several cheap purses from Target and GAP and Old Navy and a million other places every time I get tired of mine, than if I find one awesome purse and splurged on it. But I don't think Nick buys that (obviously he doesn't buy purses, but I mean he doesn't accept my way of rationalizing). But now that I've been looking at Coach's website for wallets, I've found several purses that I really like. So I might have to make a quick pit stop at one of the 800 Coach stores in Atlanta this weekend (not really 800, but compared to the, oh...0 in BG, it's a lot) and see what they have. It will be fall soon and I can't be carrying around a brightly colored striped purse! Duh.

Those are just about exactly my requirements for purses and that is also why I am considering buying one of those. Because I will just keep buying cheaper purses that I don't really like. But if I get one I love, I will keep it a long time. I like my purses to be suitable for all seasons.
