Delightful Discoveries - It's in the Bag! 11/30/10

I'll admit it, I love purses, and bags, and totes of all shapes, colors and sizes...although I have my favorites for certain activities. An elegant evening on the town demands a clutch...day to day wear is usually a hobo or shoulder bag, and if I'm going to be out for the whole day in a lot of different places, I prefer a tote! I'm also a bit particular when it comes to wallets - I definitely love the all-in-one do everything coin purse/checkbook holder/trifold style you'll see in a little bit! I've also included some specialized accessories like a purse organizer and a diaper bag - yes, I have babies on the brain today... we found out our newest grandchild should be arriving on the 7th of December, and while I know I can't wait to meet him, my daughter is really ready to be done with being pregnant for the time being!

Here are just a few of my favorites - there are a LOT more out there... it's a good thing I'm forced to show a bit of restraint (and that I have way too many purses right now as it is!) or I'd be snapping up a couple of these and dreaming on the others! I hope you enjoy! And I'm curious - what do YOU look for in the perfect everyday purse? For me, it's easy access to everything - and lots of space!

Totes are wonderful because they're roomy and you're almost expected to show off your personality a little with these oversized bags! Aren't these all great?
