@1Professor  @hicindy2  I think I'll take a look too. Don't much like the dishes, but everything else is appealing. Loving that yellow bird bag!

I know this meme has been worn out.  That said, I laugh 99% of the time I see it.

@Bird mama  I remember as a child calling bags pockybooks...

@stevieb   My maternal grandmother called it a pockabook and when I saw that cat I thought, wow, that cat has an expression that reminds me of grandma, lol.

@stevieb   HSN has a Patricia Nash satchel in the plaid if you want to take a peek.  I think there is a code too. Sorry, posting issues today.  See below

@hicindy2  Thanks. Always worth taking a look...

@stevieb   HSN has a Patricia Nash satchel that is pretty roomy. 

Approx. 14"L x 6"W x 9.5"H with 5.5" strap drop

Wowza:  this twisted leather tote with the oval bottom is quite dramatic.  Too big for me though...

This bag looks almost like a cameo:  she is so creative

@hicindy2 : I want to thank you for recently posting the PN jacquard map tote from Macy’s. I ordered it, and just received it yesterday. It’s a keeper— lightweight, comfortable, and attractive. And it was a great price. The only negative: the convertible straps are either too short or too long for me, depending on which way l adjust them. I fixed that by punching extra holes in the straps with my leather punch gadget.

You— and all my other handbag friends— are always so helpful with your recommendations!

I cleaned out a closet today and tossed an older (still looked new) duffle bag by Wilson or some sports brand.  I was thinking of replacing it with a little something more feminine fronm Vera Bradley and I see this bag on clearance at the Q. It's the grand traveler and asking price is $60.  I don't want to spend lots because I don't know that I will use it lots.  Is that a decent price for a large weekend from Vera?

@Bird mama : I would say that’s a good price for this style. I have a very similar VB traveler, (different pattern), and l think l paid around $90 for it several years ago.
