I don't know FM, pretty soon people are going to start talking about your, uh, little bag problem...

Very cute acquisition @faeriemoon...

I really like it. What is its size? Is it coated cotton, which i love for ease of care.

Oh sweetie... I have a permanent crick in my neck... I'm not even sure I can actually hold it up anymore... @faeriemoon...

Nor do I deserve to...

@Shawnie It's regular canvas so I will Scotchguard it. It comes in two sizes, this one is the mega. It is about 12" tall and 15" wide and 5.5" deep. The smaller one is about 10" tall and 12" wide (depth same.) These figures are from memory, so double check if you're thinking of buying. On sale on the KS website. Sign up for emails and get an additional 15% off.

I probably could have gotten by with the smaller one, but whenever I try to do that it's always just a tad too small. With this particular bag, I didn't want to see any lumps; it would have looked terrible. So I erred on the side of huge.

I'm so not a plaid person, but this one spoke to me. I was at a bridal shower this weekend and someone walked in with it. I was like a shark on the scent of blood....

ah girl, never hang your head in shame. I'm a shoe-ho so when I am hanging my head, it's not in shame, I'm admiring a new pair of shoes on my feet, rofl.

I sort of have a shoe problem too...

@faeriemoon... It's not a plaid, it's more of a Buffalo Check pattern, so you're being completley consistent...

Re: Just bought this (yes, another bag, oy...)

faeriemoon — Tue, 28 Feb 2017 18:17:43 GMT

@stevieb Agree!!

(And I feel better that you agree that the buffalo check doesn't fall into the plaid category. Really.)

I think that was a wise decision going for the larger and I'd have done the same.

That is a beautiful bag! Enjoy it. Very appropriate for the coming seasons.

You have great taste.

Oh my gosh, I love it..... you have excellent taste!!!

Great looking. I like the bold scale of the gingham check, which makes the pattern surprisingly modern.

@faeriemoon, I like that a lot.

I would plan my outfit around that bag. LOL

Thank you everyone for your kind words.

Just wanted to let you know, in the event you may be inspired to make a purchase, I did a live chat with a KS rep and it is NOT recommended to Scotchguard any of their products. I mention this because I had stated earlier that I would Scotchguard it.

Bri36 — Wed, 01 Mar 2017 13:10:53 GMT

I just realized it has no outside pockets. How will you manage, @faeriemoon

LOL
