Meet my New Purse!

Hello Friends!


Isn't it fun to be in the market for a new bag?


I love bags and seem to always be on the look out for


the next best thing.


Well I am here to tell you ......


I found it!


This time I owe it all to LL BEAN!


If you were to look at my collection of bags, totes, luggage etc...you would definitely notice a trend.


CANVAS.


I love the durability and texture and depending on the bag you can even throw it in the washing machine .


My new LL BEAN bag is called the Sea Washed Canvas Guide Bag. I ordered the khaki but is also comes in olive too. (yep.......it was tempting to order one of each, I'll be honest.)


Let me count the ways I love this bag:


1. LOADS of space


2. It's not heavy


3. Was not too pricey (only $49)


4. The color will hide dirt


5. Will stand up to being tossed in the pick up during junk trips


6. adjustable strap


7. handy pockets


8.convenient bag handle


I am a more rugged kinda girl when it come to purses for everyday use. They have to stand up and I don't want to cry a river if it gets a mark, scratch or rip especially if it was a more expensive bag.


This one is PERFECT!


My new BBF.

    I'll have to check it out. I've been online, actually, looking for a new purse! Thanks for the tip.

    Take care, Sue

    Awesome bag....but I HATE shopping for new bags - when I find one I love, I use it to death - and then, when it's time for a new one, I go into panic mode. Not that I don't LOVE bags - I do - but, finding one that I love to look at and can still be functional for me (i.e., have all the room of a diaper bag or small piece of luggage, but not be a bottomless abyss where I can't find something I put in it 5 minutes ago) always proves to be a challenge. Might have to scope this one out.... Enjoy! Have a wonderful holiday week....Smiles & Thanksgiving Hugs ~ Robin

    How cool is that! I like the durability point you made...I tend to be tough on my handbags, throwing them every which-a-way.

    Thanks for sharing!

    Hugs,
    Pam

    I think I'm a bag hoarder....lol! I luv your new bag! Very common sense with a ton of chic-ness! I just ordered a cool boho-hippy bag on Etsy that was made from a 1970's linen skirt. Sooo cool! :)

    I love your birds...think I'll just leave them chirping in the background for awhile.
