More important (purse) news

People who know me only from reading this blog probably think I'm incredibly materialistic (which I'm soooooo not), or vain (because they obviously haven't seen me since I'm now two months and counting behind on getting my hair cut), or incredibly indecisive (which...well...okay. I'll give you that one.)

But I've got to report once again on what I'm calling purse saga 2006.

Now, when I look back on 2006 I'll remember it for three things:

1. It's the year Love You Kill You came out a lot of people bought it and had really good things to say about it.

2. It's the year I spent trying to write the perfect Gallagher Girls sequel.

3. It's the year I tried to buy the perfect purse.


Note how two of the three things of 2006 are kind of stressful and trying. So here's hoping that in 2007 I'll be less stressed and tried, and I think I'm really close...at least on the purse front.

After spending some of my two day Christmas break looking online for purses I've discovered a brand which I think I really like.

Here are a couple of styles that I keep coming back to. What do you think?


We have option A: the Monsac Petite Satchel


Option B: The Monsac Petite Horizontal Tote




Option C: The Monsac Windsor Shoulder bag







Jennifer Lynn Barnes has agreed to help my bring in 2007, by spending New Years Day finding the perfect purse. And if that isn't enough to qualify her for sainthood, I just learned that Miss Jacksons in Tulsa carries this brand, so that means Jen and I will spend New Years Day being both the youngest and the poorest people in Miss Jacksons, but that's okay.

Purse saga 2006 will be over!


later,
Ally

I like A. I am not a fan of the "long" purse. I am not sure why.
Hope all else is well!

For what it's worth, I like purse A. I would also like to make the comment that after tax season the ladies I used to work with doing taxes would treat themselves to a day of beauty at Miss Jacksons. So, I can verify that you are not the poorest person to have been in Miss Jacksons. However, seeing that I refused to join them, you may still have been the youngest. :-)

I pick A. It's big and can carry your life and probably someone else's life in it too!

Or C is nice too.

Either way, make sure it has long straps so you can fit it over your shoulder when you're wearing a coat. (Had that problem myself a year ago) Grrrr.
