The Journey to Find a Purple Handbag

Back in 2007 I started the search for the perfect purple handbag because purple is my favorite color and I wanted to have a purse that was fun and sassy. I thought I'd share that journey with you!

You crack me up! I went on this same search for an orange handbag and came up short. Mostly because I can't afford the "good ones". My sweet and loving boyfriend got me a hot pink Coach bag for my birthday. It almost fills the hole in my soul that the lack of an orange bag left. I LOVE your purple handbag and wish you the best in future handbag wanderlust exhibitions.
