So they won't look totally matchy match. Which is a good thing. The bag is slouchy. I'm thinking about getting a handbag organizer since the pockets are mostly useless, but all the ones I've looked at seem much too small for this bag. I don't want one that would flop around and tip over. I've never used a purse organizer but with this 15-17 inch long bag those little 8-9 inch ones would be too short I think.
@jaxs mom. I because accustomed to using a purse organizer and now wouldn't be without one. Lori Grenier makes a large set of two. Mine is even silver. Amazon also has a nice selection.
Thanks, I'll look at those also.

@jaxs mom Beautiful bag!!! I have many fringe bags. To take out the wrinkles use a steamer and place a hand towel or rag behind it and move the steamer down the length of the fringe. It takes some time but then they are all perfect and stay that way if you store the bag on a hanger or carefully sit it down.

Thanks @NycVixen I'll try that.
Also, I ended up ordering the Pursfection expandable purse organizer in black and leopard. It will be here Monday ( thanks Amazon Prime). I decided to get that one because it expands and I can use it in a variety of different sized handbags plus it's not too tall for this hobo where I want to keep the slouch.

It looks great @jaxs mom! Sounds practical and good-sized.

@NycVixen I followed your suggestion and used my upright garment steamer on the fringe and it worked fabulous. I did have to go over 2 stubborn spots a couple times but it worked perfectly. Thanks for posting it. I now feel sorry for the reviewers that returned their bags because of wrinkled fringe. This was such a quick and easy fix. It litterally took moments.

Congrats on your new bag @jaxs mom! I just love how AK does metallic. So it seems the pockets are the same size as the Lindy? We both adjusted to the inside zip -- and no way I'm giving up that bag. I still do hope the pockets become larger. P.S. Think it would look fine with the cool boots.

I realized the problem with the inside pockets on the Lulu isn't just that they are too close to the top but that they are so darned short. They probably aren't much more than 3 inches. If they had just made them deeper then my sunglass clip on for my rx glasses wouldn't stick out the top so far and get in the way. It is slightly annoying that I have to pay 30 bucks to buy an organizer to fix her design problem but I do love the bag. I love the pockets in my Oryany bags and I think other designers could take some lessons from them on pockets.

Thanks @Doxielover
I've been carrying this bag since I got it and I love it so much I'm seriously thinking I need to get it in Sangria. I carried it today and wore my black knee high lace up combat boots and a mid calf length black dress. It was raining so I didn't want to wear the pewter suede boots as I haven't treated them. I'm afraid to treat the suede with water repellent and mess up the metallic finish.
