[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 448272, member: 4264"] A couple of years back I found my version of a "perfect purse". I've been babying it as to not wear it out since I've not seen one as perfect for my needs since. It's black, so goes with everything. Has a double strap that I like as it balances on my shoulder better I find and distributes the weight better to my shoulder allievating strain that would hurt my back etc. It has a zippered center section which is roomy and deep but open enough to not have to dig deep. I keep my big wallet in there with cash, ID etc And I put other things that I need with me but don't need often (envelopes with bills, envelope with coupons which I keep a different color so it's easy to find when I want coupons). There are two outside pockets. Actually more than pockets, the purse itself is divided into thirds, all sections equal in size. The two outer "pockets" have magnetic close fasteners so they automatically close up for me when I take my hand out, making it impossible for me to forget to zip or fasten a clasp and end up losing anything or spilling. One side holds my small make up bag with a few items in it, a brush, hygiene items in another mini bag etc. The other side holds my cigs and lighter since I smoke, and related items (for me they are related lol) like gum, losenges, breath strips, finger strip disposable "tooth brushes" by Oral B etc. There additionally is a small section attached that holds a cell phone although right now I don't bother with one so it remains empty but its a great feature to have when you do have one. I hope this purse never bites the dust unless I can find a similar one somewhere. Thankfully it is good quality leather so I'm hoping it holds up to age so long as I care for it well. Edited to add, I often use the cell phone holder as a digital camera holder when I'm going out and figure I'll be wanting my camera. It fits perfectly. [/QUOTE]
