Purse question
Do you think that a 6" drop for handles could be used as an on the shoulder bag or is that more handbag only material? I don't know that I've ever owned a purse with a 6" handle drop but came across one online that I kind of like. If it can't be an on the shoulder bag though I'm not interested. Thoughts?
Re: Purse question
I think it depends, you may want to measure your elbow to hand hold position length - if it's less than 6", then yes, if not you would have to bounce it into the shoulder or use your other hand to get it on your shoulder. Here's a 5" handle drop as shoulder.

"They say with time it gets better. Not true. With time you only get used to it."
Elbow to mid-palm. Or, measure the widest part of your arm between there to determine whether or not the handles are too short for you.
FWIW, I find handbags have to have at the very least 8" handles to be wearable on my shoulder.
Stand up for something you believe in.
Thanks! Yeah, that's what Im worried about with it. 6" just seems like a short handle on a bag. An 8" handle drop seems much more reasonable
