What's your favorite handbag/purse? - The DIS Discussion Forums

palmtreegirl · 11-09-2009, 12:28 PM

I need a new handbag and I need some ideas.

SalandJeff · 11-09-2009, 12:33 PM

I love purses! Right now my favorite is a B. Makowsky leather one I got in the spring. It is blue. It is my favorite because it works. It has an outside pocket on the front that my iphone fits it and 2 small zip pockets where I can stash my store reward cards. Inside are 2 sections with a large zippered center and a zippered side pocket.

I think you need to find what works for you. I need a large, shoulder bag, because i bring lots of stuff with me and need the shoulder strap so I can carry what I need to in my hands, or get dd in and out of the car or shop without carrying it.

TJ Maxx is the best for purses. All kinds of brands, prices, colors and styles!

I have a Blk leather Furla that I bought in Venice last October..I LOVE IT! I am afraid I will wear it out and then what will I do?? It's soft and roomy and oh-so comfy on my shoulder...

Me three! I've been carrying this one lately:

aaand I've been eyeballing this one for a Christmas present to myself

I like big bags, I have a lot of junk I like to carry around.

LindaR · 11-09-2009, 03:33 PM

Disney-Kim.............I am right there with ya!!! DD20 "taught" me several years ago to buy designer bags (for me and her, of course!!!).

We generally limit ourselves to one or two (each) per year. I am surprising my daughter on her birthday (21st) with TWO bags. Her first Prada and another Louis Vuitton.

Love 'em!

I am carrying a purse by Tignanello (sp) that I just got at TJ MAXX for $90. I've been shopping for MONTHS and couldn't find the pefect black purse until I found this one.

The leather is very soft, it can be worn on the shoulder or just over the arm (the strap is big enough), it has a divider in the middle of the inside and plenty of compartments so that all my stuff is not one jumbled mess at the bottom. The lining is a light color so it's not like a black hole.

I have one Coach bag that I absolutely hate that I was replacing. It looks nice but just doesn't hold my stuff well. I was looking at more Coach purses but I just couldn't find the perfect one. While I liked the looks on the outside, the inside of the purse was not "functional" enough for me. I also like L.A.M.B purses but the size I needed was $$$$$$$$$.

Next time I need another purse, I am going to seek out the Tignanello brand.

You'll have to go back to Venice and get another one, silly!

Well it sounds as if you'll have to go back to Venice to pick up another one or two.

My favorite purse is a black Prada that my DH bought for me while on vacation. Actually all of my purses have been gifts. He also bought me a beautiful tan Mark Jacobs bag a couple of years ago.
