do you have a purse/tote that you love?
In the market for a new everyday purse. If it's a tote style, that's even better (I like to have the option of carrying around a ton of stuff) but not a HUGE tote. I fell madly in love with this tote until I looked at the specs, it's 17.5 inches long which is more than I need.


But that's the general look that I would want to go for. Bonus points if it has divided sections and/or inside pockets. If you love your bag, post it here!
Re: do you have a purse/tote that you love?
The last 4-5 purses I have bought have all been faux leather, bargain purses. I was SO tired of loving a purse and then having it look ten years old after a few months, so I purposefully sought out a leather bag that would wear better. I have carried this purse every work day since I bought it and most weekends, and it looks as good as it did 10 months ago!
It is big enough for the essentials plus a knitting project. Or the essentials plus kid snacks. Or the essentials plus a book/iPad/scarf/hat/mittens. And if I only carry the minimum, the purse itself is light enough to be pleasant to carry. I had been looking for a tote style purse for a while, and I agree that most of them are way too wide!
